Embodied Sexuality

The old Cašmir as an extrait had it all:

Dirty vanilla, juicy plump sweet peach with amber notes from animalic sources, which are kept subtle. A little dab of castoreum is supposed to be there.

Cašmir as an extrait embodies like no other fragrance "sexuality" and seduction. Those who are prudish or uptight should not continue reading.

When you take this magic out of the red packaging and scent yourself with it, you can indeed believe and think you are something special compared to some women who douse themselves in Black Opium or La Vie Est Belle.

This fragrance had radiance, warmth, sillage, and seduction! Sugar crystals, vanilla, peach, and animalic notes are what you get, and that in the double digits. Only niche fragrances can achieve something like this today.

I owe this extrait many dates, many drinks offered: "You smell simply divine," "You must be desired with this scent." I often heard such lines back in the 90s.

Back then, I had the Hollywood Barbie (I always loved collecting dolls), and she smelled very much like Cašmir, or was it her hair or the little perfume that came with the doll? I'm not sure anymore, but it was that vanilla that smelled like Cašmir, firmly etched in my memory.

A bit of the sweetness reminds the old Cašmir of the vintage Classique by Gaultier but in a slight nuance.

I love the scent of Chopard but as an extrait and as an Eau de Parfum from the good old days.

Better Performance than the Eau de Parfum

A few days ago, I criticized the weak performance of "Cašmir (Eau de Parfum) | Chopard." Now, I have looked at a vintage miniature of "Cašmir (Parfum) | Chopard." I actually like the scent here even a bit better, and the longevity is significantly more pronounced at 10 to 12 hours. The sillage is fine.

The top note starts fruity, citrusy, and sweet thanks to peach, mango, bergamot, and apricots. The heart note remains sweet but also comes across as creamy and gourmand thanks to coconut. I also detect floral aromas of jasmine, tuberose, and geranium. Iris and violet again provide a fine powderiness. In the base, it stays creamy, powdery, and sweet thanks to coconut flakes. It also smells woody and oriental-spicy with bourbon vanilla, sandalwood, and amber.

In the end, I have become quite happy with "Cašmir (Parfum) | Chopard."

What does perfection smell like?

Perfection? Does it even exist? What is perfect? What does it look like and how does perfect smell? The extrait of my life fragrance Cašmir by Chopard, which is now part of my collection after a long search, is definitely olfactorily very close to perfection for me.

Cašmir is no longer a fragrance associated with luxury today. While it was already very expensive as an Eau de Parfum during my youth and nearly unaffordable for me as a student back then, you can now find this former dream scent of the Swiss watch and jewelry manufacturer in the lowest shelves of drugstores as well as on clearance tables for a low price.

Of course, this is not the Cašmir of yesteryear. It is a reformulation that I still have not sniffed myself and - God forbid - do not want to. Various dupes that I have come to know, which are said to be very close to the current formula, are enough for me. And yes, if the new formula goes in this direction, then I understand the often massive rejection that this fragrance faces today.

However, if you know the vintage version of this fragrance or even the extrait that captures this scent in its most beautiful form, then you can only love it. I dreamed of the extrait as a young woman. But when I could finally afford it after school and university, it was no longer available.

The extrait, like the vintage EdP, features a wonderfully fruity opening. I have always loved the peach note in Cašmir with all my heart. A sweet, juicy peach - beautiful enough to bite into. The flowers work more in the background and take away the attribute of a typical oriental floral bomb from the fragrance, because if Cašmir were that, I probably wouldn't have found it so easily accessible. The coconut is also somewhat reserved. Not my favorite friend in fragrance, but here you can only sense it, and that is enough for me. Because I unfortunately find the pronounced coconut note in various dupes very disturbing.

The longer the fragrance is on the skin, the more potent the vanilla note becomes. In the extrait, this is held in check even more finely by the woods, patchouli, and amber than in the EdP, so we never veer into the territory of a candy-like or food-grade scent. Cašmir in this formula was and is not a gourmand, but a sensual, very feminine, oriental perfume. It was created by Michel Almairac at a time when oriental fragrances were not yet characterized by a prominent oud note. Besides the peach, I particularly love this enchanting vanilla-patchouli combination in Cašmir, which I have never perceived in any other perfume.

What makes the extrait special for me cannot be copied. It is so incredibly beautiful that I would almost claim it is perfect.

Noble Little Stuff

Much has been written about the EDP...certainly a classic. And also a fragrance that tends to polarize. Allegedly, it often smells like this in brothels. Well, us women lack the corresponding experience - except for those who work there. But apparently, the perfume has its desired effect...

I had the EDP in my younger years (early 90s) as a dupe and as a mini. Back then, I wasn't such a fan of orientals, as I am today, so I managed quite well with it. What I acquired about 1 or 2 years ago was, of course, a reformulation. But even an (alleged?) vintage EDP didn't excite me as much as the extrait. This clearly shows me the power the original once had. A fruity (peach-heavy), vanilla-sweet oriental, subtly floral. You either like it or you don't...I do! Perfect for dreary November evenings.

The bottle of the extrait is also very noble: like the EDP, it has a cap inspired by the Taj Mahal, but made of heavy thick glass, of course as a splash, like most extraits.
