FRAGRANCE OF THE YEAR

Gucci Memoire

Almost undefinable, the scent’s interpretation differs with every user. “When we began to work on Gucci Mémoire d’une Odeur, I tried to imagine the recollection of a scent that couldn’t easily be identified; a hybrid scent that resembles memory as much as possible,” says Alessandro Michele. With the tenderness of Indian coral jasmine petals, warm sandalwood, and subtle cedarwood, it makes for a classic fragrance that’s unassigned with a gender or a time.

Containing 100 percent natural cactus, it improves skin’s texture while combating signs of ageing. It has a matt effect which leaves the user looking refreshed. “This all-purpose moisturiser offers fantastic hydration.
