Lil Fleur Cassis Byredo

Mostly like a new leather jacket, smoky with a bitter edge. Underneath that, the flower itself, ranging from jammy to green depending on the blend.

It opens on cassis, saffron and tangerine, moves through damask rose and leather, and settles on amber, vanilla and woody notes.

• cassis: blackcurrant: tart and purple, with a green, faintly sulphurous bite
• saffron: warm leathery spice, dry with a faint medicinal bite

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
