‘Mémoires d’une Palmeraie 08 is a vibrant tribute to two major perfume cultures, France and the Middle East. Their union takes the form of a floral bouquet of elegant opulence, first fruity, then floral and sensual. A seductive eau de parfum that revisits with a voluptuous pleasure a wonderful perfumery accord. – Fo’ah
After a quick sniff of the Fo’ah line-up, 08 and 14 stood out for my taste. In general they were pleasant, but not as ‘out there’ as I’d hoped. They tout the use of a special palm tree accord, but I can’t say I detected anything really unusual in them.
In 08, the palm tree accord is matched with a fresher juniper, a bright rose, jasmine and quite a fruity musk. As most of the line, I found it to lean pretty far feminine. It’s a very well done composition and probably the one I’d recommend the most, although 14 suits my taste better.
