Essence of Casablanca — Notes & Scent Profile
- Top Notes: Apple, Grapes
- Middle Notes: Patchouli, Orris (Iris Root)
- Base Notes: Amber, Balsam, Musk, Vanilla
An oriental woody-amber fragrance — a sweet, ripe fruit opening of apple and grapes that transitions into an intense patchouli-iris heart, finishing in a warm, sensual dry-down of golden amber, sweet balsams and musk.
Composed by perfumer Isabel Gil Trujillo; launched 2023. The name is inspired by the city of Casablanca itself, not by another fragrance.
Is Essence of Casablanca a Dupe?
Essence of Casablanca is not marketed as a dupe of any specific designer or niche fragrance — it's presented as an original composition in its own right.
Performance & Best For
As a 100ml Extrait de Parfum, this is built for real wear, not just a light spritz.
Best for: Fans of fruity-oriental compositions who want something evocative and place-inspired rather than a clone of another release.
