By the editors · 2 min read**Memoirs Of A Trespasser** opens with the sharp green snap of freshly broken stems—Madagascar vanilla orchid cut at the root, still damp with soil and sap. There's an immediate sense of trespass, of entering somewhere forbidden: oak moss crushed underfoot, English ivy torn from stone walls, and the faint metallic tinge of old keys. The vanilla here refuses to sweeten; instead it reads botanical, almost vegetal, wrapped in layers of oakwood and something that smells like old books left in a greenhouse.
As it settles, the fragrance becomes quieter but no less insistent. The moss takes on a silvery, almost lunar quality, while faint traces of Japanese ginger add a clean, papery warmth. It's the scent of someone who moves through spaces they shouldn't be in—confident, curious, leaving no trace but memory.
This suits those who want their vanilla strange and their green notes shadowed. It's cooler than you expect, more architectural than romantic, best worn by someone comfortable with ambiguity.
