Trying out French Leather EDP from Memo Paris's Cuirs Nomades line . It opens with an unmistakable rose note and a huge squeeze of citrus - lime, I've read. The rose is bright, fresh, but is repeatedly being challenged by the lime and accompanying pepper. There's a certain sharpness as a result, and can get a little unpleasant—headache-inducing even—if you smell it up close. Although it's still the rose that (thankfully) projects more, I feel that we never really get to see it in full bloom.
