Memories the gate fragrances paris

Lovely dried fruits with powerful dry tobacco and a touch of spices. Nice base with soft woods and dark tonka beans balances the harshness from tobacco notes. It’s good but slightly cloying.

This smells so delicious, you can smell cherry and berry and honey and tobacco, maybe a little smoky, the gate fragrance the whole collection smells very delicious and tasty. Memories really make me feel like enjoying a very good cherry cake, it is very good for all ages. I just love this so so so so so much.

At first spray, the cherry note is the first one i detect with fleeting spiciness and tobacco at the back, after 10 minutes, the spices lessens and the sweet maple sap hovers to the front making it smell thick and syrupy but not cloying. Borderline gourmand. Smells a bit medicinal to me but not to the point of being unpleasant. The first ever fragrance i smelled with maple sap. Unique. But if you're looking for a tobacco based frag, this is not it. The tobacco here is just a supporting role which gives this a slight smokey smell to balance the sweetness of maple and tonka. Projects heavy. Definitely a winter fragrance.

Omg, I'm in LOVE!! I had a fb of Cherry on Top yet it's basically Sol62 with Cherry top notes. I love this as the Maple and tabacco give it a different vibe. If you have this you don't need Wet Cherry Liquor. The vote notes list Cherry far out. Yet, it's the most potent to me. Giving a tart cherry almond facade. Incredible! Fb needed asap! Layer this with Lira omggggg!
If you have Vanille Havane or Tobacco Vanille you can still get this. Similar yet more in depth than the latter.

Update: Vanille Havane is the closet contender. If it had cherry it would be the same fragrance without the incense, Maple vibe. The Maple sap, cherry combo makes Memories my #1 choice. From Lost Cherry, Cherry On Top, Wet Cherry, Tobacco Vanille, Vanille Havane. Lost Cherry gave me a similar vibe in they dry down. Maybe Lost layered with Tobacco Vanille if you are a Tom Ford head. I think if you layered Wet Cherry and Vanille Havane it would be the closest dupe. You would have to layer 2 scents over $600 total for the affect of a $200 scent. Crazy!

Yesterday, I went to the store. The store representative asked if I freshly burned incense. I wrote down my SOTN which adorns you top of this page. My new fave love! Watch The Gate go viral noted !0/2022!

I see a review about the company's customer service. I'm saddened to hear this. I've worked with the company as I reached out to them via Instagram DM. They were very kind to me. Fast response time, even added a discovery to my purchase for Memories. :) Hopefully things have turned around! In my opinion the customer service is top tier.

Love from the first sniff! I may buy a bottle.

It has a strong opening with arabic DNA imo. There is a tiny similarity with Bond No 9 New Haarlem & The Spirit of Dubai Majalis and it doesn't become cloying like the last one.

This is a sweet scent but not overly sweet and it doesn't feel gourmand. Its smell is not edible but delicious. It could be an aromatic and exotic luxurious tobacco blend for a pipe.

The opening is very strong and oriental with distinctive olibanum, dominant tobacco, very strong maple sap and noticeable cherry note which feels like Guerlain L’Homme Ideal Eau de Parfum. The dry down feels unisex. The opening feels masculine, arabic. There is also frangipani & blackberries at the background.

The performance is also very good. Heavy sillage and projection for the first 3 hours and long lasting. Ii'm still evaluating it.

Update

After trying it multiple times I feel that this beautiful beast fits perfect on a woman. Still I believe it's unisex but it leans clearly to feminine scents. I love its smell..
