A closer look at Oleg Cassini Cassini
Cassini is made by Oleg Cassini.
How far Cassini spreads
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough.
Who will like it
The strongest accord is white floral (100%), followed by floral and animalic. You will probably like it if you enjoy white floral and floral smells and notes like tuberose and incense. Less obvious notes include coriander, chrysanthemum and oakmoss. Perfume fans rate it 3.57 out of 5.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its animalic side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Parfums Gres Cabotine Variety is a lighter match.
Is Cassini long lasting?
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. Yves Saint Laurent Kouros lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like incense and civet are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €10. That makes it one of the more affordable picks. It costs less than Elizabeth Taylor Passion and Yves Saint Laurent Kouros.
