Fragrance Profile

Lonestar Memories opens with a burst of spicy carrot seed and green geranium, giving it a slightly herbal and earthy kick. The heart of the fragrance is dominated by smoky leather and birch tar, which lend a rugged, almost haunting quality. The base notes of myrrh, vetiver, and sandalwood add depth and warmth, grounding the scent with a woody, resinous finish. Tonka bean provides a subtle sweetness that balances out the smokiness, making it a complex and well-rounded fragrance.

Occasion

This is not a fragrance for the faint-hearted or for casual daytime wear. Lonestar Memories is best suited for evening events, intimate gatherings, or moments when you want to make a bold statement. Its smoky, leathery profile makes it an excellent choice for formal occasions or even a night out where you want to exude confidence and intrigue.

Season

Lonestar Memories shines in the cooler months of fall and winter. Its smoky, warm qualities are perfectly complemented by crisp air and cozy settings. While it can be worn in spring, its intensity might feel overwhelming in the heat of summer.

Performance

The performance of Lonestar Memories is commendable. It doesn’t fade into the background but remains present, evolving subtly throughout the day. The fragrance maintains its smoky leathery core, but the myrrh and vetiver in the base notes become more pronounced as the hours pass.

Longevity

8+ hours.

Sillage

Moderate, projecting up to 5 feet.
