Casa Grande

I initially tried this in warmer weather and hated it, I recently revisited this during a cooler day and immediately fell in love. The leather is well blended here, it does not present anamalic or pungent/earthy - it is more of a "new car smell" aromatic style leather. The cherry note is actually cherry liquor, not cherry in its true form. So it's boozy, slightly sweet and not fruity at all. If you are familiar with and enjoy Quentin Bisch's use of synthetics and aromatic leathers, this will probably be a hit for you... but if you find his work is jarring to the senses, then I would probably not recommend this to you.

Beautiful airy cherry and leather scent with a hint of vanilla

Fantastic scent. The best of the new Fendi's for my taste.

I'm sorry but I can't write an in-depth review of this one like I did of La Baguette and Dolce Bacio. This is not my style at all. Notes look great but there is too much intense leather, too less sweetness and Cherry is almost totally hidden. There is a gentle smoke over the darkness which is actually the best part of this scent. I love perfumes with leather but here it's so linear and somewhat stale. "Casa Grande" does not refer here to something grand, comfortable, and beloved, but specifically to a large home full of musty old leather furniture and the residents have left long ago. The windows have not been opened for years. There should be a sweetness in Cherry, Vanilla and even in Myrrh but nothing has been achieved from such a wonderful three notes in this fragrance. I don't care Guerlain's Cherry Oud either but it's a way much better opinion than this one. The longevity is great, the sillage is moderate and the scent is definitely masculine. Thank you for reading, I hope my review was helpful. I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG and/or YouTube (English subtitles): @ninamariahperfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more. 🤗

No it doesn’t smell like lost cherry and it smokes bad. My favorites are Dolce Bacio and Perche’ No
