Frederic Malle
Une Fleur de Cassie EDP
“Cassie and ambergris — a rare, animalic floral for those who know exactly what they want.”
The take
What works
- ●Cassie flower is one of perfumery's most underused ingredients — honey-animalic and extraordinary
- ●Ropion's construction is technically flawless — every layer reveals something new
- ●Mimosa base gives it a warmth and radiance that lasts all day
Trade-offs
- ●Cassie's animalic facets are not for everyone — this is a challenging perfume
- ●Frederic Malle pricing is steep even by niche standards
