SOTD: Luxor Oud by Memo Paris

Happy New Year’s Day, Fragrance Family. Wishing everyone a blessed, peaceful, and positive start to the new year. Chicago is showing no mercy this morning, as we’re kicking things off in very frigid fashion, the kind of cold that makes staying indoors feel like the right decision. Today is all about resetting, slowing down, and taking a moment to breathe before life ramps back up again. I’ll be relaxing at home and soaking in the calm while I can, especially with work starting back up tomorrow.

Today’s scent of the day is Luxor Oud by Memo Paris, and it feels perfectly suited for a quiet winter day like this. Luxor Oud opens with a refined richness that immediately draws you in, setting a confident and elegant tone. As it develops, the oud reveals itself in a smooth, polished way—never harsh—layered with warmth and depth that feels both comforting and luxurious. The performance is excellent, with strong projection early on that makes its presence known, then settling into a steady, enveloping aura. Longevity is equally impressive, lingering on the skin for hours without losing its character or balance.

Luxor Oud is bold yet wearable, sophisticated without being overpowering, and ideal for cold weather when deeper scents really shine. It carries a sense of quiet confidence that works just as well for a relaxed day at home as it would for a more formal setting. This one earns a solid 8.5 rating for its great performance, projection, and longevity. Here’s to starting the year off grounded, rested, and well-scented. Stay warm and enjoy the day, fam.
