3 Classic Budget Female Fragrances for Men | Femme Rochas Tabu Dana Cabochard Grès | Handsome Smells
1. Femme Rochas
- This is a Chypre Fruity, created in 1944 by Edmond Roudnitska (the perfumer who also created the gentleman's classic in the 1960's Eau Savuage from Dior)
- This is a warm and slighly dirty spicy scent, which is balanced by dark sweet fruity accords and backed by oakmoss.
- The warm dirty spices are coming from the cloves and cinnamon, with the dark sweet fruits coming via gorgeous plum and peach.
- Very long lasting, around 8-10 hours with strong noticeable projection
- Best suited in my opinion as a formal night time scent, it has an air of powerful classiness to it
- I bought this vintage bottle on ebay for £30, but you can pick up the newer formulation for around the same price brand new.
2. Tabu Dana
- This was oriental perfume, released in 1932, created the perfumer Jean Carles, who was asked to create a perfume that a prostitute would wear.
- This is warm, smooth and sweet vanillic ambery scent, with lots of warm spices and a gentle animalistic muskiness.
- The main notes on my skin the amber and benzoin which gives this a smooth, sweet and warmth, the warm spices coming from the cloves and cinnamon and the gentle animalistic muskiness from the civet.
- Performance is powerful, you'll need to spray lightly to enjoy this scent, without it becoming to overbearing, I get around 10 hours of longevity with very strong projection/sillage - you'll be noticed!
- Best worn at night, in the cooler weather of Autumn and Winter, as a casual night out scent - it feels like wearing a warm coat or a warm blanket around you
- I picked this up brand new for £12 on ebay, seems to be harder to find from what I remember from a couple of years back, so you'll have to search around
3. Cabochard Grès EDP
- This perfume was originally launched in 1959, but this current variant is a reimagined/re-released in 2019
- The nose behind this is Bernard Chant, who created the masculine classic Aramis from the mid 60s
- Much like Aramis which came later, Cabochard has may similarities, though is less masculine and more more unisex, less rough and more elegant and refined
- The opening is beautiful bright sparkling blast of Aldehydes, which is then joined by florals (on my skin it's mostly jasmine), with the drydown becoming a green mossy leather
- Very classy, sophisticated and elegant, with a touch of class, this is best suited to day time wear during spring, autumn and winter, for work and formal events
- You can pick up a brand new bottle of this for around £15
