OUR AUTHORS

Clara Molloy, co-founder of Memo Paris, loves nothing more than inviting writers to share the world of perfume—her world. Because she has a passion for literature and words. Always has. In parallel with her role as the brand’s artistic director, she also writes—both prose and poetry. Many have accepted her invitation, offering their vision of a fragrance, lending a part of their language to accompany that of a scent. Words to express a meaning, a sensation. Pens to trace a trail on the skin.
