    I love Memo Paris Fragrances would like to win a bottle of Corfu. Corfu notes sound very good and excellent quality.

  • Francisco Diaz says:

    What I like most about Steven’s video was the scent brake down and the little bit of his personal history of Greece.

  • Ben A says:

    I’ve never been to Corfu, but I have been to Greece many years ago. And traveling there virtually (as Michelyn suggests), sounds lovely right now! Steven makes this sound like a lovely, aromatic summer fragrance (I love basil as a note). Though summer is almost gone, you’d never know it from the weather where I am….so this also sounds wonderful from that perspective (and Steven also says that this will continue to work in the fall, too). I’m in Oklahoma, USA. Thanks, as always for the generosity of your draw!

  • C K says:

    I enjoyed Steven’s video and description of Corfu. It really sounds great especially for summer. Also sounds very sharable for myself and my girl which is always a plus. From the intro I likes that Michelyn mentioned the collection that this Memo fragrance is part of and a few of the other places this collection has captured. Also I’m one like Michelyn said who can’t really travel at the moment so I totally get traveling just on a spray. Thanks for the generous draw, from CT USA.

  • scentastic27 says:

    Awesome introduction from michelyn’s and i agree with her about due to the current pandemic the only way to travel is thru smelling a parfum, also steven as always Excell with his professional review very descriptive and by the sound of the notes, i would love to own a bottle of this magnificent scent.

  • Toby Farms says:

    Steven’s take on this Memo fragrance makes it very appealing, where I think I would enjoy a scent like this on vacations.✌

  • Tony says:

    Would love to try this fragrance, Steven describes it so well that make you want check it out. Thanks for the giveaways.

  • hekdaks says:

    Liked the description of the mountains being combined with the shoreline. Love Steven’s breakdowns, the way he describes the ‘citrus bouquet’ combining with the rhubarb and basil was awesome. Sounds citrus/woody/floral and very interested in trying it out.

  • Shaji Wahabuddin says:

    Sounds like it’ll make a great summer scent. What I love about Steven’s reviews how well articulated his comments about the fragrance are. Brief and very well put. He is the Fragrance Professor of You Tube.

  • Nathank says:

    Love Stevens passion for fragrances, you can tell he loves fragrances as much as I do, I also love to hear about the inspiration of the fragrance this being Java, Greece. I’ve always wanted to try African Leather. And now I have to put this one on my list as well.

  • bzikuhr says:

    Pure reminiscent enjoyment, that is what you could see and hear as Mr. Gavrielatos explained his Greek history and recollection. It was rather enjoyable. Between him and the way Michelyn painted the landscape like Picasso with her words, I almost felt as if I were there myself.

  • Jorge Vargas says:

    Steven is always great in his reviews, always straight to the point. I like his reviews, so far I’ve picked up 6 perfumes because of his reviews.

  • Hiasom says:

    Yet another fragrance I must try based on a great video review from Steven aka Redolessence. The fragrance notes and description of Corfu sound right of my alley. Plus, anything that can make me feel like I am on a “vacation in the Mediterranean” is a winner for me. I already own several Memo fragrances including IIha Do Mel which Michelyn mentioned in the intro so I am sure I will love Corfu as well.

  • Cristina says:

    Steven really has passion for this being of Greek heritage and having been to Corfu. Bergamot and musk yes please!
    Michelyn really gave a great intro explaining what the grains of vagabondes is and I am not traveling out of USA now but if I could I would love to go to Corfu.
    My favorite memo Paris is Marfa

  • glowup says:

    I’ve never been to the Mediterranean but Stephen’s description and the notes takes me there. These notes sounds amazing and if this makes Stephen’s too 3 it has to be amazing. When Michelyn Camen said that many of us can only travel through a bottle, I felt that, which why I love fragrances so much.

  • papamartinez1959 says:

    Steve’s review was excellent, I’ve never tried rhubarb or rose notes. I am very intrigued and will be buying a sample from lucky scent, if I enjoy it I will most certainly purchase the full bottle! I’ve purchased other fragrances blindly, but REDOLESSENCE was the reason I purchased the fragrance. So far I’ve not been let down. Steve knows fragrances and I trust his reviews! Will be looking for other reviews from your fragrance line.

  • glowup says:

    I’ve never been to the Mediterranean but Stephen’s description and the notes takes me there. These notes sounds amazing and if this makes Stephen’s too 3 it has to be amazing. When Michelyn Camen said that many of us can only travel through a bottle, I felt that, which why I love fragrances so much. I have yet to try any of Memo’s fragrances.

  • Robert Kerr says:

    It sounds like a beautiful fragrance. I was surprised by the abundance of notes which are not common these days! I would live to get my nose in thus since my wife and I have not been able to travel during covid. Keep up the creative work .

  • starryxnite says:

    Always love Steven’s videos and loved hearing his personal connection to Greece. Have been wanting to try a Memo Paris fragrance for a while and loved hearing his description of the citrus-y bouquet at the top of this perfume mixed with the rhubarb and basil. Some of my favorite notes in fragrance. Also like how he describes the notes as smooth and creamy and not animalic. He’s so good at explaining how the totality of the notes in the fragrance make this perfume work for summer and fall.

    I really love how lush and descriptive Michelyn’s writing is in telling us about the perfumer and the dreamy destination of Corfu. This fragrance is certainly the closest I will get to Greece for the foreseeable future! I love how perfumes can take us on a journey in that way.

  • Jericho Gilton says:

    I am really really really interested in fragrance Steven’s YouTube video made
    this sound amazing and the notes of the fragrance make me think it’s going to smell Fabulous, Thank you for the opportunity to win!!!

  • drjedi says:

    I have tried African Leather by Memo Paris and love it. It was nice to hear about MEMO Corfu in Steven’s video (I am a subscriber to Redolessence), especially the part where he says Memo and Floraiku fragrances, even while citrusy, still have strong longevity and projection. Didn’t know Corfu was a UNESCO-endorsed World Heritage Site – “a dream travel destination for both its history and for its natural splendor” – thanks Michelyn for that bit of info. The notes in Corfu are lovely, and with MEMO PARIS behind it, I would love to try this one. Thanks Michelyn for your intro of Corfu and Steven for its detailed video review. I am from USA.

  • JP Saucedo says:

    As soon as Steven vouched Corfu as a office friendly fragrance… I knew it was a priority to get my hands on a bottle.
    Of course i will be looking to test it out and will surely be pleased to smell Corfu.
    Personally Irish Leather is my favorite due to its chemistry with my body.

  • Christopher Dorsett says:

    I enjoyed listening to Steven describe his childhood memory of Corfu, Greece. And the way that he break down the smell of the rhubarb and the rose that’s in the fragrance I have never tried memo paris before but would love to have a chance

  • sph1nxed says:

    I enjoyed Steven’s video and description of Corfu, he always have a good sense of how to project sense of smell through the video. Michelyn introduction is quick and simple description of Corfu. Never had a chance to try Corfu by Memo Paris so this would be a first!

  • DoggyInTheWindow says:

    I actually really liked Steve’s short segment displaying the presentation of the bottle. I think the bottle is gorgeous up close, love the imagery of the water hitting the cliffs. His description following this was also great, he’s really good at communicating his thoughts and emotions regarding the scent and it just makes me want it even more.

  • jmmcmenamin says:

    I love Stephen sharing his personal connection to Greece. This sounds like a great end of summer scent – citrus, rhubarb and basil!
    In Louisiana USA.

  • Mikael Kärrby says:

    As always, Stephens vlogs are inspired/inspiring and almost always agree with my taste … one to follow for sure!

  • Mark Serrato says:

    Just saw Stevens review…and he was exited about this one! That tells me this is a must smell experience. Anything with grapefruit is a win for me.
    Hope to make my own memories with this one if I am lucky enough to win.

  • Mark Serrato says:

    Just saw Stevens review…and he was excited. That tells me this a smell to experience. Grapefruit makes it a win for me.
    Hope to make memories of my own if I win.

  • klt03071980 says:

    I really like how Steven ties the different notes to the geography the scent is reminiscent of. I also really like how he explains how notes can be translated and experienced differently in various blends. I love it when people have platable experiences with fragrances.

  • Russell Johnson III says:

    I started following Steven (@Redolessence) among so many other Youtubers during the start of the pandemic. Due to having quite a large amount of disposable income and time on my hands, my fragrance collection went nuclear, from 2 bottles, to over 600-and still growing. I find Steven as one of the few Youtubers out there that are true fragrance pedagogues. Every review gives us more than just notes that they repeat from reading Fragrantica. When I watch Steven’s videos, I am absolutely convinced he smells all of those notes. He always injects his videos with trivia, whether it be about the perfumer, the region the fragrance is based on, or the ingredients that make up the experience. In his most recent review, he speaks of his Greek heritage and the impression it leaves him when he smells it – vacation by the sea in Greece, which he has not visited in 10 years. Steven’s profession is that of a teacher of literature and he emulates his passion further through the magic and art of fragrance.

    Curfu is even more described through Michelyn’s description that makes me want to book my next vacation in Corfu. I own many of Memo of Paris’ offerings, albeit the majority of them smelling of leather. This fresh and airy offering sounds nothing like anything I have smelled from Memo of Paris and has me not only intrigued to sample this scent, but to leave a note to self to add this destination to my future vacation itinerary.

  • klt03071980 says:

    I really like how Steven ties the different notes to the geography the scent is reminiscent of. I also really like how he explains how notes can be translated and experienced differently in various blends. I love it when people have platable experiences with fragrances. I was really transported with his description of the scent.

  • Kellyr27 says:

    I enjoyed how Steven breaks down Corfu to its core. He does great describing how well the ingredients blend together and goes into detail about the ingredients in Corfu. I also appreciate how he told me that it would be better to wear in the hotter seasons. From Michelyn’ s introduction I love how he/ she builds an imagery while describing the cities makes us feel like were there, just like MEMO transports us with the Graines de Vagabondes collection and with Corfu of course.
    I am a really big fan of MEMO Paris fragrances and would love to win this bottle. Thanks

  • Hansen K. says:

    It’s very simple…..if Steven is this excited about a fragrance, you know there’s something special about it! When he was describing the notes, I can literally smell this gem emitting out of my iPad! Can this be the unicorn of fragrance I’ve been searching for??!

  • gray6500 says:

    Loved the review and I’m def a fan Of Memo Paris. I currently own African and Irish Leather. Would love to be entered in the giveaway!

  • Daniel jackson says:

    When Steven says it’s in his top 3 it’s for me, love all his reviews and have been happy with his recommendations

  • Maykel Blanco says:

    I learn a lot with Steven fragrance reviews and I have notice that we have so much in common regarding taste and notes of perfumes. He looked very excited about this in particular and really makes me try it, I enjoy Memo Paris fragrances just have African leather and it’s one of my favorites of all times. off course will love to have this one. Regarding The editor Michelyn Camen statement she’s so right, In this uncertain times perfumes are a pretty good tool to transport us to other places, and Greece it’s an unparalleled paradise to go on vacation.

  • Jarrid Steele says:

    My favorite part of Steve’s video is everything. I’ve been subscribed to him for quite a while. The article evokes a picturesque description of the fragrance which is my favorite part. I am a fan of Memo Paris, my two favorites from the house being Winter Palace and French Leather. I do hope I win because this Corfu sounds delightful. Thank you.

  • Natalia306 says:

    I’m definitely big fan of this brand, have samples of most MEMO Paris Fragrances.
    From Steven’s video review I enjoyed his passionate description of Corfu by MEMO Paris as a great capture the spirit of the Mediterranean , it’s like you on vacation in Corfu. All notes of this perfume: Bergamot, rhubarb, mandarin, cassis, grapefruit, lemon, orange, basil, rose, musk, jasmine, peach, raspberry, geranium, clove, orris, sandalwood, cedar, amber, moss, patchouli creating absolutely delightful experience.
    Love how Michelin said:
    “In these uncertain times, when for many of us our only travel is through a bottle, Corfu by Memo Paris takes us to paradise on the Ionian Sea”
    Thank you
    Michelyn Camen
    Steven and Europerfumes for generous draw!

  • Carol Tew says:

    I would love to own this fragrance based on the notes and the great review given by Steven. His review took me on a short vacation to Greece. This fragrance sounds like a winner and I’d love to have this in my collection. Memo fragrances are amazing and Steven has never let me down with his descriptions.

  • rachelng says:

    Thank you Michelyn & Steven! ❤️ Memo Paris has been on my list for a while. I love the inspiration & idea of the Graines de Vagabondes collection! Michelyn is exactly right, I’m itching to travel! Traveling via scent is a wonderful (and safe) pleasure these days. Thank you, Steven, for your thoughts on the notes of Corfu! I also enjoy rhubarb in perfume & loved to hear you point out the strawberry connection! I have traveled to Greece many times & it is one of my favorite places! I would Love to experience Corfu, perhaps even more now that summer is dwindling. Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity! ❤️ USA

  • Maryjean says:

    I always enjoy Steven’s videos. I do trust his opinion when he does his reviews. I enjoyed learning he is Greek. Corfu by MEMO Paris sounds wonderful for Summertime yet can be use early Fall. Thank you for this Chance. USA

  • realtyisme says:

    Steven’s reviews are always comprehensive and direct. I enjoy how he ties in his personal attachment to Greece to bring a full sense of the meaning of this fragrance, as it relates to him.
    Michelyn’s take on my recent travel experience has been right on… Primarily through a bottle, such as this. USA

  • Cristina Martinez says:

    This new fragrance really excites me! I live in year round warm climate so the citrus opening sounds so refreshing, but what really got me is the basil note. I love a green, herb note with citrus or fruit fragrance to give it depth and a photorealistic outdoor feel. I can’t wait to try this and also hope to win!

  • Emily L says:

    Corfu is one of the most beautiful places I’ve visited. Michelyn, thank you for reminding us we can still travel there via fragrances. Also, I had no idea Steven lived in Greece. His description was great. Anything that contains rhubarb and smells like the Mediterranean is my cup of tea. ~Indiana, USA

  • Diego Avalos says:

    The perfume notes are amazing everything that a dream fragrance should have for me it just amaze me, I have creek descendent I really want to try this fragrance
    If I won this fragrance I’ll be the happiest person in the world

  • shot_wen says:

    I’ve never visited Greece nor was I aware there was a place called Corfu. I look at documentaries highlighting Greece and I’m always taken aback by the breathtaking views and sceneries. I totally will like to visit Greece. It is on my bucket list. If this fragrance notes as Steven alluded is an ode to Corfu then I need this perfume and a trip to Greece once and for all. Good luck to all.

  • Brad Woolslayer says:

    Corfu, Greece sounds like a fun place to use for inspiration of a fragrance. I love how Steven talked about the strawberry facets of rhubarb and about the basil. I live in Maryland USA.

  • FC says:

    Given the name Corfu and the inspiration behind the fragrance, the notes fulfill expectations. It seems like an appropriate wear for summer and spring seasons, with abundant of citrusy and woody notes. My fav. from Memo is African Leather. I am in US.

  • INYA says:

    The island of Corfu sounds like paradise. Thanks for another great place to add to my bucket list. I’m a fan of rhubarb and geranium notes, so I’d love to smell this new fragrance by Memo Paris. Steven mentioned his ties to Greece, which I enjoyed. I liked that he thinks it’s unique. Thanks for another great review and draw! Mich USA

  • Armen says:

    Sounds very interesting Steven does an amazing job with his detailed reviews. Thank you for the opportunity will be traveling to Corfu in November would be nice to win the bottle and take it with me

  • MarkMarkMark678 says:

    Stephens review are always so rich with picturesque descriptors, this fragrance sounds like a stunner. Rose and musk (two of my favorites) delicately intertwined with the bright citruses and sweet and tart rhubarb, peach and raspberry.

    I love Stephens enthusiasm and excitement over this fragrance and he regrets not discovering it sooner as it would have made his list of top 5 or even top 3 summer scents.

    Michelyn drives home a very profound point:
    In a world with limited access or mobility, this wonderful art form of fragrance can instantly carry you of into a whole new, exciting, exotic beautiful world.

    I have only ever been able to sample a few offerings from Memo, i’d love to own a full bottle Someday.

  • Pak Hin Tang says:

    Once again Steven’s video bought me here. I am from New York and I would like to enter the giveaway. My favorite fragrance from Memo Paris is Winter Palace because I really love tea based fragrance, unfortunately there isn’t lot tea fragrances on the market.

  • Ricky Brown says:

    This perfume sounds like beautiful destination in a bottle. Steven does a wonderful job talking about the note break down. I would love to own this!

  • bennybennyta says:

    Again Steven brought me here. I am from New York and I would like to enter the giveaway. My favorite Memo Paris fragrance is Winter Palace because I am a huge fan of tea fragrances. Big shoutout to Steven.

  • roxhas1cat says:

    Always wanted to go to Greece, Steve makes me want to go NOW. Yes, I’ve been traveling through fragrance lately (as well as my interest in interest in Greek cooking). I have a few fragrances with rhubarb and love it! Thanks Steve, great review. USA.

  • Andrei Artimon says:

    Awesome introduction from michelyn’s and i agree with her about due to the current pandemic the only way to travel is thru smelling a parfum, also steven as always Excell with his professional review very descriptive and by the sound of the notes, i would love to own a bottle of this magnificent scent.

  • zzandzoe says:

    I enjoyed Steven’s in-depth description of the fragrance. Along with his sentimental attachment to the fragrance. Just goes to show you how special olfactive memories can be. I enjoyed Michelyn’s saying that fragrances are a way for us to travel even if we currently safely cannot. This is so true. I am a big fan of MEMO Paris, my favorites being Sintra, Granada and Winter Palace.

  • Christopher G says:

    The intro painted an amazing picture of the scent and with Stevens direct connection it is an amazing tribute to the power of smell and where it can take you.

  • Cortney says:

    Loved the beginning because of the idea of perfume taking you away to places you might not be able to visit. Dreaming with your fragrance! Stevens video and the note breakdown was great! MO USA.

  • Aziel Tingzon says:

    The description by Steven and the notes of this perfume make me is a winner, and I’ve been to Corfu. Would love this to be my first Memo perfume.

  • Perry says:

    I enjoyed watching Steven’s analysis of Corfu. By the way he describes the fragrance, it sounds amazing and I’m really excited to eventually experience the magic of the perfume on skin. I totally agree with how Michelin describes fragrances can transport us to another place. That’s one of the beauty of fragrances and one that has really resignated my passion for fragrances. I would love to smell the beauty of this fragrance and get an idea of what Greece might smell like.

  • joshuabrian says:

    Steven is always a treat to watch! World class. This scent sounds lovely like most of their scents. I really like African Leather. Thanks for the draw. From Indianapolis.

  • Mondster says:

    I have yet to try any Memo Paris fragrance, but I think this will be a great freshie woody fragrance. Steven said that this is inspired from a place in Greece, and that this is a great summer fragrance, with the current travel restrictions, I hope this fragrance will transport you to Mediterranean with its notes. And that this fragrance is a vacation on its own. Love from Illinois.

  • GenevaX says:

    As a rose lover, Redolessence’s description of an airy, diaphanous rose at the heart of this scent really appeals to me. I also always appreciate when a reviewer notes the role of climate; R. mentions this scent’s appropriateness in an office space, and as a university professor, the milieu is similar. Memo Paris has long been on my to-try list. I’m in the US.

  • Art says:

    Been to Corfu many times would really love to get my nose on this fragrance as you beautifully described it

  • Barbara Heimall says:

    Wow Michelyn really painted a lovely picture of Corfu. It sounds like a beautiful place. I really like how Steven have fond memories of Greece and since travel is kind of weird right now….it’s nice you smell this and be transported in your mind to this magical town. I don’t own a Memo Paris but I’ve tried Sintra and Winter Palace which are both incredible! This also sounds divine and has a really interesting composition. Can’t wait to sample!

  • Lane Lee says:

    I so want to go to Corfu! <3 The closest I've been is a Spanish island. Michelyn's view of this fragrance taking us to paradise on the Ionian Sea makes me want to own this perfume. <3 Steven is also so great at note explanation. I love his channel. I have so many Memo favorites! I live in the USA.

  • Steve A says:

    I enjoyed the reviewer’s personal thoughts on the fragrance beginning at the scent and development portion. Haven’t experienced a Memo Paris offering as of yet. US

  • xoe says:

    Ah, Corfu — How I would love to visit. This fragrance, Corfu by Memo Paris, as described by Streven and Michelyn sounds like just the ticket. I am in the US.

  • AleksCipri says:

    When I saw the introduction here I knew Steven was the best person to review this fragrance. He always describes fragrances that remind him of Greece and Mediterranean so well. I really like that he says this fragrance is very long lasting (although this is to be expected from Memo) and I love the notes of rhubarb and sandalwood mixed with citruses. Corfu sounds amazing. I also didn’t know some of the fragrances from Graines de Vagabondes collection mentioned in the introduction so I’ll happily go and learn more about them too. I’m from Illinois, US.

  • Uwem B says:

    I have not tried any Memo Paris fragrance yet but I enjoyed Steven’s antidote about Greece and I liked his enthusiasm for Corfu. The notes of sandalwood, cedar, amber and patchouli sound very appealing to me as well.

  • Dosva says:

    I enjoyed Steven’s video and description of Corfu. It really sounds beautiful especially for summer and for fall as Steven mentioned!
    Love the pyramid of this perfume!
    Very glad that Memo give as so many beautiful new releases!
    US

  • Zumar Ali says:

    Really loved the way Steven unfolded all the elements of the parfum ! It’s really sounds like a perfect blend of fresh soft spices , citrus and florals with a polished base makes it my go to summer scent .

  • Bryant Worley says:

    I really liked Steven’s breakdown of the fragrance. He is always so thorough and knowledgeable about the notes. His breakdown, along with his enthusiasm, you want to blindbuy this. Michelyn’s introduction was okay.

    I am a fan of Memo fragrances only through YOUTUBE videos/no practical experience.

    I live in Waldorf, Maryland, USA.

  • WaltherP99 says:

    Corfu i believe is clean fragrance, green, spicy fruity and aromatic. Memo do know how to make Inviting fragrances
    From Memo Paris i do own Granada , and i’m on my second African Leather bottle , both Alienor Massenet creations
    Corfu I’ve been to, I’d love to try Memo Paris fragrance inspired by it , the Ionian Sea vacation me and Michelyn never had this summer 🙂
    Just followed @phillipe_paparella_paris , the other profiles I follow for a long time
    Thanks a lot
    USA

  • Patty Wood says:

    I would love to travel to Greece. While travel is restricted, fragrance is a way to feel like we have been to exotic locations, as Michelin observed. I love rhubarb, basil and orris featured in Corfu. Stephen’s enthusiasm for this Memo convinces me that I would like it. Our tastes often align. I would like to be in the draw. I am in WV, USA.

  • huzaifa_102 says:

    Hello,

    Steven is by far my favorite reviewer of fragrances. The most intriguing point he raised about Corfu is its opening notes, which I am a huge fan of citrus & fresh smelling alike fragrances. Thank you.

  • Kenneth Hunter says:

    I like the way Steven describes this fragrance as it relates to his experiences being a youngster in Greece.

    Plus his ability to share his knowledge with regards to notes and compositions of fragrances while not being boring to watch is quite unique on youtube.

  • kdub2675 says:

    I like how Steve describes this fragrance from the point of view developed from his childhood years spent in Greece.

    Steven also has a knack of imparting his extensive knowledge of fragrance notes and composition to the viewers with passion.

  • frw says:

    Thanks Michelyn, I am big on travel through scent right now (aren’t we all?). Steven, your review was excellent and I’d enjoy a fall Mediterranean vibe. There are a lot of ingredients, but his comments helped me understand how they coexist in this complex fragrance. I think I want to try this more than most I have seen recently! I don’t own any Memo Paris. NC USA

  • Barber82 says:

    Both picturesque mountains and crystal clear sea ? Come on ….
    Invigorating fragrance, with rhubarb , fresh citruses, a bit spicy and a little bit of sweetness.
    CORFU sounds so nice , balance is needed in our lives…at least I need it. Just by the look of the two pictures, i can say the island feels like a place I’d like to be right now.
    African Leather is the best Memo Paris i personally own, there’s one more i really like , it’s called Kedu . Smells like eating sesame bar, and drinking tea.
    Thanks to Europerfumes for the giveaway, and to Steven , and Michelyn of course
    USA

  • cyndi says:

    I loved Michelyn’s imagery – she truly transported me to my mini-vacation destination! I can feel the warm sun on my face as i breathe in the Mediterranean air…I loved Steven’s enthusiasm as he talked about his memories in Greece and his love for this fragrance- it makes me want to experience both now! I am a big fan of Memo fragrances; right now I am smitten by Marfa and Granada stole my heart years ago. Thanks for this chance!

  • Vuskaya says:

    I have always loved Steven’s Youtube reviews as well as his dear friendship with the late Carolos (RIP). He always seems so genuinely enthused with this craft and his review of Memo’s Corfu was no exception. I got my Memo email announcing the new drop and wondered… and when I saw the notice for Steven’s review, I immediately got on to watch. Traveling is a treasured and beloved activity of mine when I am fortunate enough to do it and to hear Steven say Corfu truly transports him to his beloved Greece – to feel like he is on vacation (which I sorely need) – it felt like every cell in my body started to dance. I MUST experience this. He informed viewers that one can win a FB of Corfu from Ca Fleure Bon and I read Michelyn’s knowledgeable (I LOVE history and background info!) introduction to Corfu and got even MORE excited bc it echoed Steven’s sense that this juice TRANSPORTS. “Paradise on the Ionian Sea” captured it all in one intentional mental picture. I can almost smell it in my mind. I want in. I must have. A magical elixir that can give one the sensation of the Ionian Sea, the jewels of Greece….I could cry. Even this exercise alone feels soothing and therapeutic. Thank you for two transformative introductions and reviews. May the most in need of healing, sentient travel win this sweet contest!

    Steven always gives such in-depth and useful reviews, but one thing that stands out for me is he always shows the packaging and the atomizer. That is really nice to see the level of quality taken. I would be excited to try something with rhubarb. In maryland.

  • Bear says:

    What a fragrance! Summer in a bottle! I’d love to win this to share it with my wife. I enjoyed Micheyln’s intro – I felt like I visited Corfu. Also, Steven is so great – what a professional. I’m a big fan of African Leather. USA

  • Aaron Sanchez says:

    I enjoyed how unique this fragrance is, setting itself apart from not only the house, but all other fragrances. Truly love hearing Steven’s passion when it comes to fragrance.

  • Jose Herrera says:

    As usual, great review by Steven. I don’t own any Memo Paris fragrance, so this would be a great start.

  • Trinity33 says:

    I appreciate Steven sharing his memories of Corfu. I’ve never been there but the pictures are breathtaking. I haven’t traveled in almost two years and I miss it. At least, as Michelyn noted, our travel can be through a bottle. I’m in MD, USA.

  • rockboyt says:

    I like a lot of the same notes as Steven and the way he lights up describing the smell I know this one is special and I must have it!

  • Mariannepflo says:

    Hey there! I am so intrigued by Corfu. Steven’s description was especially enthusiastic for this one, which made me smile, especially when he listed all the notes in quick succession. It caught my imagination. Michelyn’s intro also plucked my heartstrings, because I am moved by smells that I identify with a specific place in the world or in my city, and I’ve definitely been feeling that perfume has been my main way of traveling during this pandemic. I can go to my little cabinet and pick a destination to accompany me throughout the day. I’ve been watching reviews about Memo fragrances, and they have all been glowing. Also, I recently tried a wonderful fragrance from Musicology Parfums and I was really impressed. I think these two companies share roots, is that correct? Anyhow, on IG, I’m @Mariannepflo It’d be great to be entered in the giveaway. Best wishes!

  • roblexky says:

    I love how Michelyn expresses that a bottle of Corfu could help us with our desire to travel during these uncertain times. Steven’s explanation of the note breakdown helps the viewers imagine the scent as if we are experiencing it four ourselves. Thanks for the giveaway. This would be my first Memo Paris fragrance. USA.

  • Uncle1979 says:

    Rhubarb, strawberries work so well in culinary
    Steven take on Corfu reminded me of making, and later eating Strawberry Rhubarb Almond Cake while sitting on some beach in Corfu, and just enjoying time .
    As a Pastry Chef, who also is a small business owner , I own my bakery, I’m glad Clara Molloy decision to use high quality ingredients in all Memo Paris fragrances, that’s essential to me.
    I had the pleasure of smelling a few Memo Paris fragrances when I was at Osswald boutique , looking for something else. I have not smelled Corfu since it’s brand new , but at the end , I end up buying the fragrance I originally intended to, and also Memo Tiger’s Nest . I had to , it’s impressive one , and it works wonders . Over 10 hours of longevity and 3-4 hours of strong projection.
    Appreciate Steven review, Michelyn introduction, and the giveaway campaign
    USA

  • Sherin Thomas says:

    Excellent introduction from michelyn’s and i agree with her about due to the current pandemic the only way to travel is thru smelling a parfum, also steven as always Excell with his professional review very descriptive and by the sound of the notes, i would love to own a bottle of this Gorgeous scent. From PA, USA

  • Xcentric says:

    Rhubarb is one of my favorite notes! Steven presents Corfu as an amazing scent that I would want to get my nose on. The olfactory breakdown is always my favorite and allows me to understand what notes I should expect when wearing this fragrance!

  • Francesca Brice says:

    Indeed it’s wonderful to have the memories of such an island as Corfu in a bottle that we can access any time, and anywhere we wish to take it. Call food is the most beautiful of islands and much has been written about it and its earth has many tales to tell I’m sure 🙂 I’m in New Zealand so I don’t qualify but I just Loved reading this review. Thank you!

  • Francesca Brice says:

    Indeed it’s wonderful to have the memories of such an island as Corfu in a bottle that we can access any time, and anywhere we wish to take it. Cordu is the most beautiful of islands and much has been written about it and its earth has many tales to tell I’m sure 🙂 I’m in New Zealand so I don’t qualify but I just Loved reading this review. Thank you!

  • D.S. says:

    Steven has had one of the best fragrance related channels on YouTube for quite some time, always enjoy his in-depth reviews and passion.

  • Thelstrhi says:

    Steven’s description of the island of Corfu and Michelyn’s reminder of how we can use fragrance to travel even when we’re unable to do so in real life we’re my favorite things about the reviews for this perfume. I would love to give it a try if I get the option. I live in the USA

  • Ruben Lopez says:

    I never owned a Memo Paris Fragrance and after hearing Steven’s review it sounds awesome. Please enter me to win a bottle of Corfu. Corfu

  • MikeJ says:

    Steven always good for showing us what’s the next beautiful fragrances out. Love the reviews brother!! Thanks Michelyn & Steven for all you two do, very appreciated!! Yes I’ve smelled a few from Memo Paris but never owned any bottle, big fan tho!! USA once again thanks Cafleurebon & good luck everyone!!!

  • Ken White says:

    I’ve never been to the Mediterranean but would love to experience it through this scent. Corfu has come up in conversation lately

  • patrick_348 says:

    Steven’s reviews are always beautifully organized and specific in their descriptions. Just from reading the note list, this sounds like it could have been a mess that just throws everything in, but Steven gave a good sense of the progression of notes and how they interact. Michelyn helped to create a good mental picture of the island that inspired the fragrance. I don’t know MEMO fragrances, but this sounds like a great place to start. In the US in North Carolina.

  • Iana27 says:

    Steven’s review makes me believe that there is a citrus fragrance that is so well blended that lasts more than 5 hours. I am looking for a citrus fragrance like Corfu, that lasts and has a good projection. I also would like to try this perfume because Steven and Michelyn describe it as a vacation in Corfu perfume and I visited this dream island.
    From Romania

  • redwheelbarrow says:

    I agree with Michelyn that I am traveling through scent these days. I also only know of Corfu what I’ve seen on The Durrells in Corfu and I would love to visit olfactorily. I love Steven’s description of the citrus bouquet with the added basil. I love basil. And rhubarb! I was sold at this point but then when he described the base I was all in. I love that he describes this fragrance as being on vacation. I’d love to try this one. The only MEMO I’ve tried is African Leather which I adore. Thank you for the draw. From the US.

  • Christie says:

    Michelyn’s words on travel through a bottle is true and I’m so grateful for a sense of smell. I can be content with that for now.

    I liked learning about Steven’s scent memories when he lived in Greece. It’s a wonderful feeling to smell something and have happy memories come to mind. This sounds like a juicy, aromatic masterpiece! I love basil in fragrances. I would love to try Corfu. I have never smelled any Memo Paris fragrances.

    Thank you for the giveaway! In the USA.

  • Joyjoy says:

    This line, “In these uncertain times, when for many of us our only travel is through a bottle, Corfu by Memo Paris takes us to paradise on the Ionian Sea,” makes me intensely curious about Memo Paris’ latest fragrance. I also enjoyed hearing Steven speak of spending part of his childhood in Greece. I don’t know many of Memo Paris fragrance, having sampled only a few. My favorite from my samples, are Sintra, and Lalibela, which is on my buy list. I have FBs of Marfa which I love, and Argentina, one of my most favorite rose/oud fragrance.
    I live in Springdale, Arkansas.

  • petergigov says:

    Corfu is cozy natural smelling fragrance with citruses, and woody-floral elements of highest quality.
    Steven look on the picture well represents the character of Greeks, they can be laid-back, gentle but also passionate people.
    African Leather, cozy date time scent I’m well aware of, I had to buy it because of smelling good , its high compliment factor , and versatility. Same thing I’m expecting from Corfu
    I was not aware Corfu is UNESCO-endorsed World Heritage Site , thanks Michelyn
    Exciting giveaway, USA
    Regards

  • croxley says:

    Oh my… this has potential to be the g.o.a.t. I’ve been looking for.

    The note composition appears to have cherry-picked straight off my own personal list of favorites, which inevitably brings along a sense of apprehension in regard to its actual performance. Thanks to Steven’s video and his wonderful way of describing scents in such a way that provoke an almost sensory ambience as if you can feel the fragrance no matter where you are. And that’s why I love his reviews and to no surprise my favorite part of this one in particular.

    I need this in my life.

  • minteacup says:

    Well, Michelyn’s intro reminds me how I was planning a European vacation right before the pandemic started and that all went up in smoke with no end in sight. D: But on the bright side perfumes can really evoke a sense of place. This was my first time seeing one of Steven’s video reviews and I appreciate his approach including both descriptions of the scent experience the associations and memories evoked. Would love to try Corfu. Memo Paris scents remind me of NYC, because I smelled a few in person at a department store there on my last visit! I’m in the USA, thanks for the draw.

  • KateD says:

    Steven does such a great job of describing the different phases of this scent and the notes he detects. He makes it clear that he loves this and his enthusiasm is fun and not over-the-top. I’ve really been enjoying his contributions here. Michelyn’s comment about some of us only getting to travel through a bottle resonated with me. I’m spritzing and watching other people’s vacations on you tube these days. I look forward to someday travelling again and bringing home fragrant souvenirs! Thank you for the draw, I’m in the US.

  • Gig84 says:

    I’ve been to Greece 6 times, but never visited Korfu. I knew it’s a famous tourist island attraction, but i never knew there also some nice mountain terrains.
    Korfu, the fragrance is sophisticated floral citrusy fragrance, slightly sweet , and Steven is liking it a lot. Alluring scent i’d love to win.
    Don’t have Memo bottle yet, but four samples , Moon Fever, African Leather, Tiger’s Nest and Tamarindo . Out of the four, Tiger’s Nest and African Leather are my favorites.
    Thanks for the draw
    By the time of the winner announcement, I’ll be back in US

  • forrestanez says:

    I was excited to learn that this scent was personal to Steven, due to the fact that he lived in Greece as a young child and had visited Corfu. I also, love the idea that you can be transported to a location through the fragrance in the bottle. I have only tried a couple Memo fragrances and they were not a let down, just top notch. Thank you for this opportunity.

  • AnnaElli says:

    What I loved about Steve’s video is in depth review of the individual notes in this mixture, that sounds really amazing. As usual he delivers one of the best youtube reviews. I loved Michelyn’s teaser for a virtual fragrance travelling.
    So far I only tried Sintra from Memo and I loved it and I look forward to trying more.

  • Bassey says:

    I have not tried any Memo Paris fragrance yet but I enjoyed Steven’s antidote about Greece and I liked his enthusiasm for Corfu. The notes of sandalwood, cedar, amber and patchouli sound very appealing to me as well.

  • Mazikeen Smith 24 says:

    Another great review from one of my fave youtuber, Steven. This review is very special because Steven is greek, so he is well familiar with what the perfume itself wants us to experience. Three things that he mentioned and made me excited were uniqueness, complexity, and refreshing. The notes made me really curious specially the mix of florals especially rose together with a bouquet of citruses. I hope I can try this soon! Great review, great intro, great fragrance from Memo Paris.
    Cheers from South Carolina <3

  • Erika* says:

    I enjoyed Steven’s thorough review on Corfu. His in depth description of the notes, his background and sentimental connection to Greece. Would love to try Corfu by Memo Paris, which Steven describes as a fragrance that captures the spirit of the Mediterranean. And travel through a bottle to this paradise in the Ionian Sea as Michelyn Camen stated. I think the concept of the Graines Vagabond collection is fascinating.

  • Vahagn says:

    Love Steven video-review and Michelyn info!
    Steven really live this being of Greek heritage and having been to Corfu.
    Need perfume which will remind me a sea and vacation.
    Love Memo fragrances, especially Kedu, Italian Leather.
    USA

  • jadebender says:

    My favorite part of Steven’s video was the way he correlated the scent to the culture and to his own experience visiting the Mediterranean, which tied in perfectly with how Michelyn suggested fragrance can allow us to travel during these unprecedented times. Can’t wait to try it!!!

  • Jake Dauod says:

    I completely agree with Michelyn’s introduction. Perfume is so powerful and travelling through these pieces of art is so fun. As for Steven’s review, it was fantastic like always. The notes on this fragrance sound lovely, and because it’s getting much colder in Indiana, I would love to “travel” to a warm Ionian Sea. And to answer the last question, of course I am a fan of Memo Paris. They have so many masterpieces. Kind regards from IN, USA.

  • Adrian says:

    What I liked about Stevens review was he said that the fragrance name is a place in Greece, I liked that Michelyn said that through a bottle fragrances can transport you to a different place.

  • Maribel says:

    I agree that scents definitely transport us to places all around the world. The idea that this scent takes us to the island of Corfu sounds like my dream vacation. I also enjoyed Steven’s review about this fragrance. I’ve been a subscriber of his for years, and in my opinion, he’s the best fragrance reviewer on youtube.

  • finerthing_940 says:

    Scents will forever transport us, but they also give us feelings of joy, well-being and pleasure. Our mental travels rely on these feelings, so I’m confident that Corfu by Memo will do that and more. Great review by Steven as always! Gosh he’s so knowledgeable and articulate. Plus he’s got that positive energy that everyone loves.

  • IvanVelikov says:

    Korfu island full of the sugary sweetness , greenness looks gorgeous, almost untouched by human hands. I’ve visited the island as a kid.
    Rhubarb meets mandarin , and other zesty citruses, tonka , sandalwood , and rose
    (hopefully), I think we have sating the senses Mediterranean floral-fruity fragrance.
    I have samples of Tamarindo, Argentina, African, Italian and Russian Leather, and Sintra. Tamarindo, Argentina and Sintra are my 3 favorites.
    Beautiful giveaway, thanks a lot.

  • Brian says:

    I haven’t tried anything yet from Memo Paris, but I’d love to try all of their releases. I’m very interested to see if this fragrance can make one think of the Mediterranean Sea/Ionian Sea area. I want to see what the citrus with basil opening is like. I’m, also, very interested in seeing what the combination of mid-notes, and the combination of base-notes, which are in this fragrance, are like. I live in MD., U.S.A.

  • mronhubbard says:

    Both Michelyn and Steven touch on how this scent, like others, can transport us to somewhere far away, in memory or in fantasy. I like that Steven told of his personal connection with the Greek islands, and how Corfu stirs good associations for him. It’s nice when someone so knowledgeable also shares just enough of a personal side like this. I’ve never been to Greece, but I enjoy using scents to fantasize about other lands. And these notes sound gorgeous. I don’t think I have tried anything from Memo before.

  • Bubeto_GG says:

    Bright, fresh and energetic, up to date floral fruity bouquet, some greenness, tartness , and sensual rose , it truly sounds fantastic. Corfu here i come , tropical islands trip I wish I had this year… who knows, the year is not over yet
    I should finally catch up with Memo catalog of fragrances , i do like it quite a lot, but African Leather is the only one I’ve smelled.
    Top opportunity, thanks
    Cheers with Pinot Noir

  • sephrenia300 says:

    Nice video and introduction! I really enjoyed learning in the video that Steven used to live in Greece and that he has a connection to the country through his father’s family. I’m really glad that Steven thinks the fragrance really captured the spirit of the Mediterranean, particularly with the basil and rhubarb – coming from someone who has lived and has roots there, that means a lot, and makes me very eager to sample Corfu . And I loved how Michelyn described the island of Corfu in her introduction in such an evocative way, bringing us winding up the mountains and down the shorelines – I had no idea it was a UNESCO World Heritage Site! I wholeheartedly agree with Michelyn that in a time where we can’t really travel, scent is such an essential part of helping us get away from the everyday.

    I am a fan of MEMO Paris fragrances, particularly the many different variations on leather! I live in the US and I have also subscribed to Redolessence’s channel.

  • kramerongo says:

    Corfu sound like a summer/fall hit, that give all what med sea living. all Fruity fragrance. I like alot. I am in CA USA

  • Omeed says:

    I’ve been a long time fan of stevens fragrance review channel redolessence on YouTube & have always admired how articulate he was in explaining the note breakdown & occasions all fragrances can be worn. This truly sounds like a masterpiece of a scent. I a new to this Greek fragrance house & would be honored to win this vacation scent in a bottle. Wishing you all well & thank you for giving me this opportunity.
