Avon launches the Parfums Creatifs A Paris collection of fragrances in 1992 in cooperation with perfumer Jean-Pierre Subrenat and bottle designer Pierre Dinand.

Casbah is my first love…and one the most precious treasure in my collection.

I was 13, when I smelled first this beauty in 1992.After when it’s came out to the market I’ve got a tiny little sample from my ex-classmate whose mother was an Avon-lady in the 90’s.I guarded this tiny purple sample for long years in a small jewelry box.:)After 18 years (in 2010) finally I got a full bottle on my hands.

Casbah is about powder and spices. For those who is  in deep love with powder, musk and orientals-Casbah is the heaven itself.

No doubt, Casbah has the typical late 80’s vibe, it  absolutely reflects the animalic and oriental floral features of this decade. Similar scent are came out in the middle 80’s as 273 Rodeo Drive by Fred Hayman and Bijan Bijan.

Casbah is a powder bombshell..in a good way.Sultry and captivating.Rich and bold floriental twisted by warm spices..Seductive marriage of the notes,hazy yet intensive combination of iris and musk.Rose, sandal and spices makes the heady accord rounded and deep.It’s becomes more intimate as the skin’s heat pulses through it.
Intoxicant and mesmerizing..

The durability of the scent is amazing…as it ingrains into the skin, this beautiful smell just lingering around me more than a day!!Well made quality perfume is this.I’m a proud owner of this splendid fragrance.

Casbah is infected me in the past and it’s seems that I will never recover from this “illness”…but I don’t even want to be…;)
