Casamorando 1988 EDP

Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford Shanghai Lily is a deeply polarising scent. While many hail it as a devastatingly beautiful masterpiece, others find it too bitter and overwhelming, smelling of dentist's offices or burnt incense. This isn't a safe blind buy, but for those who love bold, oriental florals, it's an enchanting and unforgettable experience.
An oriental floral interpretation of Xerjoff Casamorati 1888, opening with a saffron-pepper spice over a ylang-rose heart and a patchouli-amber-sandalwood base.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
This is a strong, projecting fragrance that's best suited for occasions where it can truly shine and intrigue, such as dates or formal events, especially in cooler weather. Its intensity makes it largely unsuitable for office wear or casual daytime activities.
Seasons
The saffron-clove top and patchouli-amber-sandalwood base sit firmly in the warm-spicy woody zone that flourishes in cold weather and reads heavy in summer heat.
Occasions
Moderate-to-strong projection and warm oriental shape make it a confident evening, date and dressier-formal pick; too heavy for sport and a touch much for warm-weather office.
