Luxurious indulgence
A first for Parfums de Marly: a gourmand fragrance!
An irresistible and delicious blend of velvety fruits and pastel flowers with a hint of vanilla and wood. Cheerful, refined and elegant. Another addition to the family, named after one of Louis XV's horses, renowned for its speed and pedigree: Cassili.
The pedigree of the fragrance composition speaks for itself: the pure tradition of formulation that made the ‘perfumed court’ of the 18th century famous – and is now the hallmark of Parfums de Marly. Yet at the same time, it is an incredibly contemporary, free and cheeky fragrance... youthful perhaps?
An original fragrance, a breath of fresh air, a radiant scent created as a manifesto for a new generation of aesthetes. "Cassili opens up a new dimension in women's fragrances from Parfums de Marly. Sweet perfumes are very much in vogue, a vibrant part of today's fragrance craft. I wanted our composition to swim against the tide and yet be forgiving, subtle, elegant and almost classic. True to the spirit of Parfums de Marly creations!
It took us five years to tame, shape and refine this notorious plum note until we achieved the delicacy we had dreamed of." –Julien Sprecher, founder of Parfums de Marly.
A colossal pastel-coloured bouquet
Julien Sprecher entrusted the creation of Cassili to perfumers Calice Becker and Nanako Ogi (Givaudan). By selecting raw materials of exceptional quality and combining them with innovative molecules, the two women challenged the traditional code of the fragrance pyramid to create a harmonious and vibrant fragrance in which the notes interact, blossom and blend as soon as they come into contact with the skin.
Top note
Sun-drenched currants and radiant Bulgarian rose create an immediate sensation of clear freshness.
Middle note
The precious, tingling and subtly green plum accord blends with cheerful mimosa absolute to form a delicate and noble heart that is particularly complex.
Base note
Vanilla, benzoin from Laos and sandalwood create a comforting base. Warm and soothing, like a caress on the skin.
‘I wanted to give this scent a body that would come into its own as soon as it came into contact with the skin – like a tulle slip dress. For me, Cassili is a wonderful blend of pastel-coloured flowers and velvety fruits, both elegant and incredibly contemporary.’ –Nanako Ogi
The bottle
Attractive, elegant, sensual... just like the person wearing the fragrance. Peach-coloured and decorated with a tassel in the same colour, the cap has an apricot-coloured sheen. Not exactly the same, not completely different. The Cassili bottle resembles the fragrance. Irresistible.
