Angela Flanders Cachou is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2001. Cachou settles into a heart of Violet and Ambrette, and dries down to a base of Rose, Iris, Heliotrope, and Raspberry. Angela Flanders's Cachou carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a proper 'love it or hate it' affair. Some adore its classic, powdery charm, while others are put off by a 'vegetable fat' note that's more soap than scent. Definitely sniff before you commit.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its moderate projection and classic floral powdery profile make it suitable for formal settings and even office wear, provided it's applied sparingly. It's a bit too refined for casual everyday wear or sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Cachou opens with a fleeting whisper of raspberry before diving headfirst into a plush, powdery floral heart. Think plush velvet roses and sweet violets, conjuring images of vintage cosmetics. The base rounds out with the soft, almost starchy aroma of iris and heliotrope, solidifying that distinctive powdery, classic boudoir feel. It’s elegant but not entirely without its quirks.
