Ilha do Mel

عطر جزيرة العسل من ميمو للنساء والرجال Ilha do Mel Memo for women and men حينما أشم رائحة زهرة الجاردنيا، أو حتى ترتسم صورتها في مخيلتي. ينتبني شعور حسي بوجود هالة متفجرة من الجمال والدلال داخل قالب من الزهو لا يخلو من الغرور لطالما بحثت عن جميع عطور الجاردنيا وقد جذبني بعضها، وكان البعض الآخر مخيبا للآمال ما بين سيطرة للياسمين أو التيوب روز أو أشياء أخرى فأنا أبحث عن عطر جاردنيا بمقاييس الجاردنيا الناعمة والقوية ويمكن استخدامه رجاليا أعتقد أن عطر ميمو الجديد قد أرضى بداخلي هذا الاحتياج الانطلاقة مع أول رشات للعطر ستكون بخروج العرعر الراتنجي المنعش مختلطا برائحة عسل الموالح الإيطالي الذي تفوح منه رائحة تشبه البرجموت والليمون الصقلي الحلو الآن لا يوجد أفضل من زهرة Hyacinth: زهرة الصفير - زهرة الحزن أو زهرة المطر: "وهي نوع من الزنابق ذات رائحة مكثفة زيتية عشبية مسكرة عميقة، تنتج رائحة جميلة عند اتحادها برائحة مع رائحة الياسمين وزهر البرتقال، ilang-ilang، البنفسج، مسك الروم، زنبق الوادي والنرجس" لتكون همزة الربط بين هذه المقدمة السريعة الكثيفة وبين اندفاعه لاهثة للياسمين الدافئ بصحبة الجاردنيا المخملية. الكثيرون قد لا يستطيعون التمييز بين الياسمين الدافئ السويتي الطابع وبين الجاردنيا المخملية الحالمة الأكثر دسامة من الياسمين. الآن يمكنك أن تقول انك تستمتع بأروع توليفة تجمع بين الجاردنيا والياسمين من دون أن يسرق منهما الأضواء نوتات أخرى مغايرة لهذا الوسط الزهري شديد البياض. وأحب أن أصف العطر في هذه اللحظة بأنه عطر sentimental يخاطب الوجدان بكل فصاحة. لن تخرجك أزهار البرتقال المنعشة أو زهرة السوسن التي ستزيد المكان انتعاشا وشعورا بالرطوبة من هذه الحالة ولكنهما قد سيرسمان ابتسامة رضا على شفتيك من يدري أي خاطر قد استدعاه الآن نسيم هذا العطر من خزانة ذكرياتك. ستكون الفانيليا في الخاتمة دون انفراد ولكن فقط لتدعيم بقاء عبق العطر لفترة أطول. أعتقد أن تسمية العطر بجزيرة العسل قد يكون لرمزية العسل عن السعادة أكثر من كونها رمزا للرائحة السويتية، هكذا رأيت العطر.. عند تجربة العطر ستكون مخيرا بين خيارين لا ثالث لهما "الغرام أو الحب" وفقط. جمال الرائحة: مذهل النقاء: مذهل أيضا الثبات والفوحان: جيدان جدا جدا كعطر زهري يصدر العطر في عبوة 75مل بسعر حوالي 150 يورو أنصح جميع محبي العطور الزهرية والجاردنيا خاصة ألا تفوتهم تجربة هذا العطر واقتناءه لأنني أعتقد أن الجاردنيا بهذا النقاء والجودة لن تصمد طويلا داخل قنينة العطر بل أتوقع التلاعب والتغيير الإجباري لجودة العطر في المستقبل.

Wow. As soon as I smelled this, it awakened something in my memory, but I couldn’t pinpoint what, at first. I felt it had something to do with my late grandmother, and I finally pinned it down to these expensive Japanese glycerine soaps that she kept in a box. They had these magenta plastic cases that, to my child’s mind, looked like giant jewels. After some googling, it looks like what I’m remembering is Shiseido Honey Cake?! Unfortunately, the product is discontinued so I can’t buy some to confirm, but I don’t think it’s a coincidence that my specific visual memory matches a product called Honey Cake. Keeping in mind that nostalgia is a powerful force, I find this fragrance to be just gorgeous. It’s an opulent, elegant, sweet honey floral. Several reviewers have mentioned this smelling like “old lady,” and/or like soap, and I have to agree. It literally smells like my grandmother’s soap. It’s feminine and mature. I’m not sure if I want to wear this myself (I’m 43 and it still smells like an “older” woman’s fragrance), but I really really love smelling this.

So, BIG HUGE SURPRISE! I was looking forward to trying this fragrance, given all the hype it receives. I purchased sizable decants of Ilha Do Mel, along with six other Memo-Paris fragrances. To my surprise and from the florals I sampled, Ilha Do Mel turned out to be my favorite fragrance. To my nose, Ilha do Mel shares similarities with Flam and Granada in that the opening is heady and very very floral. However within minutes, Ilha do Mel departs in its own way with the emergence of a sweet, perfectly balanced, expertly blended honey note. The honey note, coupled with juniper and broom notes makes the fragrance smell like wildflowers basking in a sun-soaked field versus a freshly picked bouquet of heady white flowers. Honey is usually NOT one of my favorite perfume notes 'cause it can smell (kinda) urinal, or body-odorish to my nose. But Ilha Do Mel is so well blended, the honey note grounds the florals and pulls the fragrance in a lovely, wearable direction. Longevity is fair at 2-3 hours and silage is minimal. Ilha Do Mel is beautiful, it really is!

I received a tester of this when I purchased the Irish Leather from the Memo boutique. All I can say is, beautiful... This is definitely on my have-to purchase list. After wearing the tester for the past couple of days I can safely confirm that it is the most beautiful floral I have ever came across. To me this perfume is very simple, a beautiful blend between jasmine, rich honey and a hint of orange blossom. That is literally all I smell. It is incredibly feminine, pretty, sweet and flirty. I would say its the perfect spring and summer fragrance. It reminds me of a jasmine honey luxury soap that you would get in expensive hotels. The sillage is so powerful and it stays on me for hours and hours. The whole Memo line has the best lasting power, which is why they are so worth the price. Cannot wait to treat myself to a full sized bottle next spring !

If you have ever driven up to Pico de las Nieves, (one of) the highest point in Gran Canaria, you will know this smell. To me, this perfume comes remarkably close. I have been longing to find something like this for ages, because Spanish broom has such a unique scent, and I love it deeply. And this is it! As you drive up the mountain, the air becomes colder, the broom grows heavier and more honeyed, the road turns dustier, and the Canarian pine trees seem to melt into the air. Somewhere in the distance, there is always the faintest suggestion of sea breeze. This perfume captures so much of that memory. It does not quite have the dusty road, the faint tar melting in the summer sun, or the full presence of those Canarian pine trees, but it comes very close. I absolutely LOVE it. Best blind buy of the year. Last for 8 hrs at least.

Another breath of fresh air from the "let's pour some ungodly amount of synthetic vanilla to this perfume and call it a day" scene. As a normal person in the fragrance community (but a weirdo to normal people) who stops abruptly on the sidewalk to smell jasmines, honeysuckles, orange flowers and -you guessed it right- hyacinthes, Ilha do Mel is all of my evening walks in Granada, Sevilla and Antalya. This is unique but not in-your-face-unique, this is that situational-introvert woman / man standing in the corner at the party, you're not going to notice them at first glance, but once you somehow start talking to each other, they're either gonna be your spouse or your friend who will be invited to all of your family events.

To/on me this is somewhere between Amouage Honour and Chanel Beige. It also has something in it that reminds me of Noeme's Atitlan, I thought it was mimosa but this doesn’t have that listed; however, mimosa can a distinctly honey-like smell so maybe that’s all I’m smelling. Either way, this is absolutely gorgeous! I could bathe in it, it’s intoxicating. A wonderful introduction to Memo Paris, I already bought another one from them that I have coming on the way and plan to buy many more. The presentation-bottle and box alike-is absolutely gorgeous as well and very high quality just like the juice. Projection and sillage is also excellent, especially for a “lighter” scent like this.

I simply love this fragrance. It reminds me of a warm spring day. Upon spraying you are first greeted by hyacinth that has been kissed by honey. As it dries down the honey warms up and jasmine and orange blossom join the party. The fragrance takes me back to when I was a child on the playground at school. Our schoolyard was surrounded by honeysuckle bushes that would waft its sweet fragrance through the air with every breeze. However, the addition of iris to this perfume takes that little girl memory and makes her all grown up. This perfume is sweet while still being sophisticated and elegant. It is an awesome addition to have in your collection.

The scent is beautiful. From the beginning you can sense how the honey interacts with the white flowers, a beautiful synergy. After it settles down, you can definitely feel freshness. More of a soapy-clean kind in my opinion, maybe even aquatic. This gives the ability to wear it throughout the day and when it’s hot, even though it has honey. In my opinion, it leans feminine but a guy could pull this off, with the right attitude and outfit on a vacation to a beach venue. The only thing I find disappointing is the sillage, it does not seem to project that much. Also, becomes a skin scent after 3 hours tops.

Upon first sniff and with no expectation, the fragrance evoked visions of evenings in early spring as the sun is setting amongst brown golden field of flowers. A truly bright and uplifting scent that is calming, where the florals and sweetness are very well balanced. Drydown is this delicate sweet nectar, I wished my skin smelt like this always. This is undoubtedly the best floral I've ever smelt. Longevity is long lasting but stays very close to the skin. I would purchase a FB if I see it greatly discounted but until then. I will hold onto my sample. Update: Found a good sale and bought a FB. :D

For me, the honey note in Ilha Do Mel is as close to the intimate, lightly sticky, breathless honey of Guerlain Mon Precieux Nectar, and because of this, I adore it. The opening does have a lovely green freshness from the hyacinth and orange blossom. And the honey is not alone, but it gives me that joy, and I will wear it any time. Rather than a sweetness in the darkness, which is the Guerlain, this honey is full of sunlight and gentle breezes, bees buzzing around blossoms on the trees behind you. Doesn’t last as long as I’d like, but it’s also subtle enough to wear in most scenes.

یک عطر شیک و مدرن برای دوستداران رایحه عسل. به شخصه عطرهای عسلی زیادی رو تست کردم و تعداد کمی از اونها مورد توجهم قرار گرفته. این عطر از جمله مواردی بود که منو تحت تأثیر قرار داد. رایحه عسل خیلی طببعی و خوش‌ساخت که یاس و سنبل هم اونو همراهی میکنن و بقیه نوتها. به هیچ عنوان در فضای بسته ازش استفاده نکنید، چون میتونه دل رو بزنه. اما در هوای پاییز، بهار و زمستان که چند بار خارج از منزل این عطر رو تست کردم،تا ساعتها بوش همراهم بود و حس خوب بهم میداد. در مورد شباهت این عطر با آمواژ آنِر، بله به نظرم شبیه هم هستن، ولی عطر ممو خیلی مدرن‌تر و زیباتر از آمواژ آنر هست.

I really wasn't very sure as to what to expect from this. It's won me over at first sniff. Who knew hyacinths, mock orange blossom and honey would compliment each other so well. I wish the hyacinth hung around a lot longer. The neroli comes to the fore quite quickly. The broom adds a curious coconutty twist. If it wasn't so darned pricey I would go fb. It's a perfectly unisex floral. Now that's unusual in itself. Test it for yourself. It's a honeyed spring bouquet.

Ilha do Mel is a beautiful sweet delicate fragrance that evokes the clear summer sky,purity, and everything is clear. The color that I perceive from this fragrance is white... a solar white, white and quiet. Merger with orange blossom and jasmine give the very noticeable smell a joyful and positive character.! I like it. ღ Sillage: 7/10 Longevity: 7.5/10 Scent: 8.5/10 Overall: 8.5/10

This is love at first smell. Honey - jasmine - orange blossom come forward first for me. A few hours after application it dries down to something that smells slightly reminiscent of an old lady scent...but didnt give up on it and its lastability is impressive. I reapplied before bed and in the morning I could still faintly smell it. A very soft and sweet white flower

sweet blooming jasmines, just like blooming in my garden right now. not indolic at all. ilha do mel, as the name suggests, also presents the jasmines dripping in honey. making it less sticky/too sweet, is a hint of floral green-ness and a drop of sweet orange. golden and beautiful. wearing this makes me feel relaxed. perfect for anytime!

Blind buy, not totally disappointed but was expecting something more fresh... for my nose vibes are same direction with Soleil Blanc TF - with more sweetness in this one... probably jasmine plus citruses in both give this feeling. For me it’s very spring fragrance, but wearing also now when the weather is grey and rainy here in Europe..

I just love this fragrance, it's so soft and feels so safe. I get nostalgia when i smell it. Reminds me of early school. When life was simple, safe and no stress. It's my peace in this chaos we call life. My hubs thinks it smells like a old lady but I love ilha with all my heart. 10/10 performance i feel like the prettiest girl alive.

Sharp sweet jasmine-hyacinth blend that’s almost natural with the slight green note. Can’t seem to smell honey as the one in Gold Knight or Back to Black by By Kilian. Neither can I smell vanilla. Very lovely perfume, still it doesn’t warrant the price tag. Okay, maybe the beautiful bottle does make it more justifiable. Lol

I dont get everyone here or the notes. On my skin for the first few hours its very aquatic and salty, fresh and floral and only a few hours later i get more florals and honey. But anyway i love it so much and bought it, its beautiful Edit: just got my bottle, ot is actually much more floral but still salty
