How is the longevity and projection on this one?+−
Modest on both counts. Most wearers find it lasts several hours on skin but stays very close to the body — a personal scent bubble rather than something that fills a room or announces you before you arrive. If you spray it on fabric, it can linger longer. Anyone prioritizing strong projection should look elsewhere.
Is this fragrance discontinued?+−
Yes, Mémoire d'une Odeur has been discontinued, which means it's no longer available through standard retail channels. Stock can still be found through secondary markets and some online discounters, but availability is shrinking and prices may have risen from the original retail.
Is it actually unisex, or does it lean one way?+−
It's marketed unisex and was designed to be gender-neutral, but community opinion leans slightly toward it reading feminine on some skin due to the chamomile and soft musk combination. That said, it doesn't contain any traditionally masculine or feminine signifiers in a strong way — people who gravitate toward quiet, herbal, or non-conventional fragrances tend to find it wears well regardless of gender.
