Menorca

It opens with bergamot and lemon with a hit of ginger, citrusy and unsweetened. The heart opens into neroli, with iris concrete giving it a powdery body and carrot seed adding an earthy root note that pulls it away from ordinary cologne. The base is what defines it: salty musk, sandalwood, and a mineral note that mimics salt drying on the skin.

Menorca is an eau de parfum by Memo Paris created by perfumer Sophie Labbé, and it was released in 2026. Labbé says she was seeking the sensation of salt crystallizing on the skin after a bath, and that is why she worked with a musk as close to the skin as possible around a mineral and salty accord.

It needs only a little and stays close. It wears well in the day and in spring or summer, which is its terrain. From the same travel line we have Sintra, which leans sweet with orange blossom, and Ilha Do Mel, more floral. And if you're looking for the house's other Mediterranean scent, Cap Camarat is in the catalog.
