Worth a try

The review

Worth a try. That is where Cassius MAISON lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Carlisle.

Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Carlisle's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Maison Alhambra publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: green apple, saffron and nutmeg up top, Tonka Bean, osmanthus and davana in the middle, vanilla, patchouli and opoponax underneath — the shape of Parfums de Marly Carlisle.

Top

  • green apple
  • saffron
  • nutmeg

Heart

  • Tonka Bean
  • osmanthus
  • davana

Base

  • vanilla
  • patchouli
  • opoponax
For the one who wants a spicy apple-and-saffron opening melting into warm tonka, vanilla and patchouli, an opulent bright-meets-dark statement with real presence.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
