Italian Leather
Neroli and bergamot in the opening carry the specific brightness of a northern Italian morning: lemon-clean and warm without being tropical. Rose and geranium in the heart are placed above the leather rather than beside it, the florals giving the composition a feminine legibility without softening the material. Sandalwood and vetiver in the base resolve into a clean, lasting finish that is the most polished of the Memo leather series.
Why We Carry This
Italian Leather is Massenet's most classically structured entry in the collection: neroli over leather over sandalwood, each element in its proper position. The geranium detail in the heart is what gives it distinction. This is the leather fragrance we recommend first to clients new to the genre.
