    I’d like to try it but since I love the bottle I suspect that it won’t work on my skin

        Yes, the Memo I wanted to love because of its bottle is the first scrubber I’ve had! But a lot of the Memo bottles are great so I am sure I will discover one of their fragrances is great too. I would like to like this one.

    Well, I love the bottle AND the juice! It smells like a fine Moroccan leather bag that’s full of sweet spice buns and recently shaved bits of sandalwood, with a big red rose right in the middle. Or said bag spritzed with both Safran Troublant and Tam Dao? Definitely less sweet than Safran Troublant, but the creamy spiced rose note is there. It also seems like it might be a massive perfume if sprayed — I put on two dabs from a sample vial and my husband called out from across the room, “What are you wearing? That one’s so good! I could wear that, couldn’t I?” Five days later I can still smell it on my sweater.
