Abu Dhabi, by Mylène Arlan, draws its inspiration from the enchanting landscapes and rich traditions of the United Arab Emirates. At the heart of this fragrance, the date, the emblematic fruit of the Al Aïn oasis, tells a story of generosity and sweetness. Enveloping and refined, Abu Dhabi evokes the caress of a traditional Bedouin cloth, Al Sadu, and the soothing dance of palm trees under the sun. Every drop is an invitation to discover the soul of this region, imbued with beauty, passion and hospitality.
Abu Dhabi's sensory journey begins with spicy, stimulating top notes of red pepper, awakening the senses like a breath of hot desert. At its heart, the fruity, aromatic richness of davana intertwines with the sweet, fleshy sweetness of date, offering captivating, enveloping depth. Finally, the base notes blend the comforting gourmandise of honey and vanilla with the resinous, balsamic accents of labdanum.
The Abu Dhabi bottle is an ode to the ancestral craftsmanship of Al Sadu, a traditional weaving technique recognized by UNESCO as an intangible heritage. Its motifs, inspired by the elegance and simplicity of Bedouin lines, delicately adorn the glass, recalling the textiles used for tents, carpets and decorations. Through this design, the bottle captures the essence of Emirati culture, paying homage to its history while sublimating the modernity of the fragrance it contains. A true treasure to behold and wear.
Memo fragrances are the result of a work carried out between the artistic director Clara Molloy and her husband John. The brand, founded in 2007, imagines perfume as a journey and builds its identity around magical destinations and intense raw materials evoking the travel memories of the founders: her, a Parisian poet with Catalan origins; him, and Irish globe-trotter and sportsman.
