Shams Oud Eau de Parfum - Memo Paris
Sun on resin.
Pink pepper and ginger open hot and dry, then it turns smoky and increasingly dense. Cypriol and cashmeran deepen the middle, and styrax, Peru balsam, vetiver and oud make a base that smells burnt in a deliberate way. The oud sits inside the balsams rather than dominating.
Top notes: Pink pepper, ginger
Heart notes: Cypriol, cashmeran
Base notes: Styrax, Peru balsam, vetiver, oud
Family: Oriental
Concentration: Eau de Parfum
Best for: Cold weather — a good introduction to oud if the heavier versions put you off
The story
Sun on resin.

How it wears
Top notes greet you, the heart settles in over the first hour, and the base is what stays on skin at the end of the evening.
