Casamorati

1888

1888 by Casamorati is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with black pepper, clove and coriander, moves into ylang-ylang and dries down to amber, mysore sandalwood and patchouli. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
• Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
• Coriander Warm seed spice, slightly citrusy. A quiet workhorse.

Heart

• Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.

Dry-down

• Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
• Mysore Sandalwood The legendary Indian sandalwood. Richer and butterier than any substitute.
• Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
