About Memo Paris Lalibela
Memo Paris Lalibela takes its name from the ancient Ethiopian city famous for its 12th-century rock-hewn churches, where incense smoke has drifted through stone corridors for centuries. Released in 2014, Memo Paris built this fragrance around sacred, sun-baked earth and the lingering weight of ritual. Warm and deeply resinous, it never tips into suffocating. Genuinely uncommon.
Fragrance Family:
Woody Amber
Scent Type:
Earthy, warm, spicy, resinous
Notes:
Patchouli, vetiver, benzoin, and labdanum form the base: rich and grounded, the kind of finish that outlasts the occasion. From there, olibanum carries the ceremonial weight at the heart, and frankincense deepens that quality without softening it. Rose threads through quietly. Pink pepper and cardamom open with dry spice and just enough brightness to draw you in.
Suggested Use
Cooler months suit Lalibela best, when the resinous base has room to develop without turning sharp. Apply to the inner wrists and let it dry down naturally before heading out. That pause gives the frankincense heart time to open fully before you reach the door.
