Memo Paris Perfume & Fragrances is a luxury niche perfume house that turns scent into a journey, offering evocative eau de parfums inspired by cities, landscapes and faraway destinations. Founded in 2007, Memo Paris creates long-lasting, characterful fragrances for men and women, from iconic leather compositions to luminous floral blends, available to explore and buy online at Welzo.
What is Memo Paris?
Memo Paris was created by Clara and John Molloy with the idea that perfume should capture memories of travel. The name “Memo” reflects memory and memoir, and each fragrance is built around a place or journey: Irish fields, African savannahs, Texan deserts or Mediterranean coasts. The brand is known for its high fragrance oil concentration, distinctive bottle designs and storytelling approach that appeals to niche fragrance lovers who want more than a standard designer scent. Within Welzo, Memo Paris sits alongside other premium ranges in our Fragrances & Perfume collection.

Why is Memo Paris Important?
Memo Paris stands out in modern perfumery by focusing on story-driven, destination-based fragrance rather than trend-driven releases. This makes the collection especially appealing to people who see fragrance as part of their identity and lifestyle. Each perfume reads like a travel diary entry, with carefully chosen notes meant to evoke place, memory and mood. For those building a curated fragrance wardrobe across categories like women’s luxury perfumes and men’s luxury fragrances, Memo Paris offers depth, artistry and emotional resonance that goes beyond mainstream mass-market scents.
How to Use Memo Paris Fragrances
- Apply one to three sprays to pulse points such as the neck, wrists and behind the ears; Memo Paris scents are often potent, so a small amount can go a long way.
- For evening or colder weather, you can add one spray to clothing or a scarf for extended diffusion—always patch-test fabrics first.
- Choose lighter floral or citrus-led Memo perfumes for daytime and office wear, and richer leather or amber-based scents for evening and special occasions.
- Layer gently with unscented body lotion to enhance longevity without overpowering the composition.
- Store bottles upright in a cool, dark place away from heat sources or direct sunlight to preserve top notes and overall balance.

FAQs
Are Memo Paris fragrances unisex?

How long do Memo Paris perfumes last on the skin?
Memo Paris is known for strong longevity due to higher fragrance oil concentrations. Depending on the fragrance, skin type and environment, many scents can last from six hours to a full day.

How should I choose my first Memo Paris fragrance?

Can I layer Memo Paris fragrances with other perfumes?
Layering is possible but should be done carefully due to their strong character. Many users prefer to layer Memo scents with unscented body products rather than other perfumes, or to combine them with subtle fragrances from our wider Fragrances & Perfume range.
