Purple Mémoire Eau de Parfum offers an evocative introduction to a richly layered fragrance from Floris London, blending heritage, memory, and modern refinement. The scent opens with fresh, aromatic notes of lavender, bergamot, and mandarin, accented by a gentle hint of coriander that lends brightness and lift.
At the heart, calming lavender is joined by warm jasmine and rich white florals, unfolding alongside green cyclamen and smooth orris. These notes create a soft yet expressive floral core that feels both familiar and quietly sophisticated. As the fragrance settles, a sensual base emerges with amber, creamy sandalwood, and rich labdanum, softened by powdery musk and rounded with comforting touches of vanilla and tonka bean for a smooth, enduring finish.
Purple Mémoire is inspired by Ivy Lodge, the cherished family home of Mary Anne Floris and James R. D. Bodenham in the late 1800s. Surrounded by harmonious gardens filled with lavender and treasured herb beds of coriander, Ivy Lodge represented love, devotion, and the gentle rhythms of English family summers. The fragrance captures those distant memories, blending the serenity of sunlit gardens with timeless English charm.
