Fresh wind against warm hide, Irish Leather captures the feel of an Irish countryside ride where juniper berry brightness and green mate lift an elegant leather accord, then glide into woody depth and a hint of herbaceous iris and clary sage. The trail feels brisk and polished at once, translating Memo’s travel vision into a modern green leather you can wear through day or evening.

Story and Positioning
A signature of Memo’s Cuirs Nomades, Irish Leather is presented as a gallop of the wind where leather meets the airy freshness of juniper and green mate. It helped set the tone for the leather travel map that followed, and today sits alongside Italian Leather, French Leather, African Leather, Russian Leather, Iberian Leather, and Sicilian Leather. If you enjoy suave leathers such as Tom Ford Tuscan Leather, Parfums de Marly Godolphin, or Dior Leather Oud, Irish Leather offers a greener, brisker take with the same refined spirit. The journey later continued with Irish Oud, an ambery stopover that deepens the theme.
Bottle and Design
A tall rectangular flacon in deep-tinted glass carries a stylised horse motif in warm gold over a black field, traced with pale lines like looping reins. The front plaque names the scent above the Memo Paris mark, while a smooth cylindrical cap in soft gold completes the clean profile. The presentation box is sturdy with an elegant Memo monogram finish, giving a collectible object with real shelf presence.
