Tiziana Terenzi Cassiopea is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Paolo Terenzi. Cassiopea opens with Lemon, Fern, Blackcurrant, and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Rose, Lily of the Valley, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Tonka Bean. Tiziana Terenzi's Cassiopea carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This one is a total divider. Some will find Cassiopea a juicy, elegant tropical dream, while others will dismiss it as a cheap, headache-inducing fruity floral with the staying power of a politician's promise. Tread carefully.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:

Office Date

Its fresh, fruity, and often clean-leaning profile makes it quite versatile, suitable for casual wear and even office use if applied lightly. The tropical sweetness lends itself well to dates and casual outings, while its divisive nature and sometimes perceived 'cheapness' might make it less ideal for formal settings.

About

Cassiopea opens with a burst of tart passionfruit and redcurrant leaf, brightened by a hint of lemon, creating a lively, almost shampoo-like freshness. As it settles, a floral heart of rose, lily of the valley, and carnation adds a refined softness. The dry-down reveals a creamy, musky base of sandalwood and tonka bean, bringing warmth and a touch of powdery sweetness that some compare to a boujee tropical smoothie, others to a cheap car freshener. It's a journey from zesty fruit to a mellow, sweet musk.
