Perfume by NOTE › Lemonmelon
LemonmelonEau de Parfum
Tart lemon and ice-cold melon.
Juicy, a little green, then dry and warm.
*For a day of blazing sun. Lavender sits next to the melon, so the scent is not too sweet.




High noon in Saigon, and the sun is coming straight down on the street. Everyone else has run for the air conditioning. You put your sunglasses on, drag a plastic stool to the edge of the sidewalk and text the whole group to come down.
Lemon meets you first. It is tart and cold like a glass of ice just set down, with a light, soft sweetness from orange blossom to take the edge off.
Half a glass later the melon arrives, cool, juicy and a little green. Lavender, dry and cool, keeps its sweetness from turning into candy.
By the time everyone stands up and hands back the stools, what is left on your skin is cedarwood, dry and warm like a wooden table left in the sun, with warm amber and a clean musk sitting close.
Lemonmelon is not a very sweet scent, and it suits the daytime, hot days most of all.
Lemon and melon, cool and juicy, close to the water.
Lemon and orange blossom are bright for a morning of coming and going.
Cedarwood and musk keep the base dry and clean.

Every perfume reads in three layers. Top is the part you smell as soon as you spray. Middle arrives after a few minutes. Base is the layer that stays longest on skin.
On skin, Lemonmelon goes from tart and cold to juicy, then dry and warm.
Lemon is tart and cold. It is the first thing you notice.
Melon is cool, juicy and a little green, as if straight from the fridge.
Lavender is clean like a towel fresh off the line. It stands next to the melon and reins in its sweetness.
Lemonmelon has two packaging designs. The scent inside is the same, and so is the price.

The new packaging. The box is iridescent and covered in graffiti-style NOTE lettering, the NOTE logo runs down the front in Lemonmelon's warm orange, and the scent's name sits on a brushstroke of the same color.
Every size comes with a box and a carry bag. The 30 ml and 50 ml bottles add a PVC pouch and two "Style your bottle" sticker sheets drawn for Lemonmelon. The 10 ml does not include stickers or the PVC pouch.
The sheet is a summer sidewalk corner with a colored-pencil look. The street sign reads "Phố SUMMER", Summer Street. Around it you get a plastic chair, an electric fan and a bag of iced lemon tea tied with a string, straw already in. The rubber duck in a conical hat is saving your seat.
In store or online, you get the packaging that is in stock when you buy. To check which edition is in stock right now, message NOTE before you order.
Lemonmelon started with something everyone in Saigon knows, the midday sun and a cold slice of melon with a few drops of lemon squeezed over it.
That noon is the inspiration, not the ingredient list, and NOTE does not make Lemonmelon from fruit bought at the market. The scent is designed by NOTE in Saigon and made in Vietnam.

You have read this far and still have not smelled a thing, so come to one of the three NOTE stores in Ho Chi Minh City and spray it on your skin. Stock at each store changes from day to day. Before you come, message NOTE to find out which one has a Lemonmelon tester.
Not very. Lemon and orange blossom make a fresh opening, the melon in the middle is cool and a little green, and lavender keeps the sweetness from turning into candy.
In the daytime, and above all on hot days.
If this is your first time with Lemonmelon, start with the 10 ml and wear it for a few weeks. Once you know it suits you, go for the 30 ml or the 50 ml.
Spray on your wrists, behind your ears or on your neck, 15–20 cm from clean, dry skin. Close the cap after use and keep the bottle somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight.
NOTE delivers within Vietnam, through orders placed in the online shop. If you are visiting Ho Chi Minh City, you can buy a bottle in store and take it home with you.
If your company wants a scent of its own for the lobby, NOTE designs one on request.
