Memoire
Cherie by Elizabeth Arden. Memoire Cherie
was launched in 1957, and was discontinued
sometime in the early to mid 1980s. Memoire
Cherie was such a succes that by 1960, it
was awarded the grand Coupe D'Or award by
the Comite du Bon Gout Francais as "the
finest fragrance ever created and acclaimed
in France."
Memoire Cherie is classified as a floral
powdery aldehydic parfum with refreshing
woodsy notes.Notes include: Sicilian bergamot,
Mexican neroli, fresh apricot, Romanian
chamomile, tarragon, soft honey rose, violet,
opoponax, Moroccan oakmoss, amber, musk,
and Haitian vetiver.
Perfumery
comments, "A memorable deception indeed,
layers and layers of beauty..each with a
different face. Memoire Cherie perfume begins
with a classically constructed 50's woody-floral
accord, tightly wrapped together; dense
and waiting for air. After a moment of hesitation,
Memoire Cherie escapes and descends into
a rich and wonderful oriental accord; creamy,
nutty and sensual beyond belief. It is as
if the perfume walked out of the room and
came back in a new outfit. This wonderful
warm amber musk tone has a gentle floralcy
which dances around the base and carries
on for hours and hours. At the end, the
oriental base settles down below the floralcy
and Memoire Cherie walks quietly into the
night. " -- Jeffrey Dame. ID=DP134
