Our verdict on Une Fleur de Cassie: Acquired

Un Fleur de Cassie is a divisive masterpiece of classic perfumery, a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent with an almost polarising animalic edge. For the connoisseurs, it's a sensual, elegant yellow floral; for others, a shocking, dusty, even dirty experience. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

About

It pulls you in with the lush, pollen-dusted sweetness of mimosa and jasmine, intertwined with the sharp, green bite of redcurrant leaf. Aldehydes add an initial soapy sparkle, quickly giving way to a rich, powdery core. As it settles, warm sandalwood and a soft musk emerge, rounding out the bold florals with a hint of vintage creaminess and an underlying animalic intrigue.
