About the Fragrance

With Argentina, Memo plunges into the heart of a territory, a country, to the rhythm of a dance, a passionate impulse. Argentina is embraced in its entirety, carried away in a single movement; that of a twirling tango. A dance of mixing, of travel, and on the dance floor, corolla shapes appear. Like a rose, emblematic of perfume, queen of flowers and symbol of ardent love. A floral aromatic with a sweet and warm back, wraps you in elegant and delicate way, where rose and oud meet to a tango dance.
