Cadjmere 18

I am since earlier a big fan of Parfumerie General, even tough I don ́t like all perfumes I ́ve tried from them, at least almost all of their fragrances touches me in one way or another. Cadjmere isn ́t an exception. I fell in love at first sniff! Really bad, heart crushing, aching and mouthwatering love... I have loads of untested perfumes, and probably many of them really good and interesting. And all I can think of since Cadjmere strucked me, is... Cadjmere. LOVE LOVE LOVE! I think I will need a lot of this gorgeus perfume... like enough to fill a bathtub. Well, so far I haven ́t even mentioned how good it smells. And it sure smells good. It is creamy, but still very interesting, personal, smells familiar and mystic at the same time. Comforting and sensual and sexy, I ́ve got a lot of compliment on this, even tough I ́ve only wear it in public one time! It is warm yet fresh and cool in a very alluring way. The coconut in this one is tricky, I can ́t really smell it (like coconut usually tend to smell suntan-lotion) but I guess it ́s contribute to the luxurious feeling of creamy, smoth softness. I ́m not sure about how myrtle smells like, but in Cadjmere everything smells sooooo good! I don ́t think you should try it, I think you should leave all the existing bottles to me, I want to swim in it. No, I guess not, but I am obsessed with Cadjmere. Maybe you will be to if you try it! Longlasting, heavy sillage, I have my own Cadjmere-cloud around me for hours and oooh, do I love it? :) It is also a very euforic perfume, I feel warm and happy when I wear it.

I totally get the Addict vibe in this one. But in this case, the vanilla is dominated by the cypress note, making it more unisex and definitely more elegant, discreet and less gourmand. I can't detect any coconut, the cypress seems to drawn all other individual notes and what's left is a underlying sweetness. This subtle sweetness is what makes this a comforting scent in the end and has me smelling my wrist all morning. As with all PG perfumes, the longevity is not too good on my skin, though not exactly bad either. I think I'm gonna have to buy a FB of this in the end. I don't seem to stop thinking about it even when I'm wearing another perfume. Edited to add: Finally got a FB of it and I noticed a few things. First, this doesn't give me the Addict vibe as the sample did because the cypress is much stronger in the FB for some reason. Also, the tangerine, which I couldn't detect in the sample, comes out very prominent in the dry down and gives a strong sour note. Still no coconut though. It's very 'chic' and elegant and comforting at the same time, but also less sweet than I expected it to be. Lasting power fortunately is improved in the real juice and lasts at least 8 hours though it stays close to skin after the first 5-6. I'm glad to have bought it and find myself wearing it a lot, though it unfolds very differently from what I had come to expecte from the sample. It turns out that this is one of my most used perfumes, because it's calming and uplifting at the same time!

Cadjméré ...strange name but ah what a little marvel this perfume is! We are in front of a little Maspterpiece. Cedar to my nose (not listed in the notes, probably it's the cypress resin plus the sandalwood that gives the the cedar vibe...) but it is also very creamy, like something you are cooking at home, like candied orange peel dipped in a Chantilly cream, with that hint of Vanilla... You immediately feel at home w/ your mummy cooking sweet stuff for Xmas. Full, warm and cozy. Then enter the Woods. I feel very strong the balsamic notes of cypress and juniper (very strong on the juniper berry note!!) and other pine trees notes. I like its freshness, although it is voluptuous in a very understated way. This is one of those fragrances that makes you feel like home. It is warm, round, oriental, aromatic. Do not detect many flower notes here in... it is rather a masculine fragrance but can be well be worn by a lady, it is sensual enough, it has anyhow an ambrette base that makes it soft & easy to wear. I recommend you try this one, because it is really a unique fragrance. I love and to me it is def. FB worth!!

Cadjmere is a perfect name for this one; it's just about the softest, creamiest scent I've ever smelled, and I love it! The combination of green cypress with milky coconut and sandlewood is very original, and a bit startling at first, but it works wonderfully well once you get used to it. And it's so well blended, so velvet smooth, that very soon this interesting combination seems like the most natural thing in the world, and you start feeling like you don't want to live without this scent any more - or at least that was how I reacted. I really think it has everything to become a go-to option for the colder seasons. It's a warm, cozy kind of fragrance, but elegant and not too sweet. It's interesting because of its originality, but it's straightforward as well: it doesn't develop much, but that's a plus in this case, seeing how great it is from the start. I'm going to put this on top of my wish list, I don't want to get through this coming winter without it!

Shamefully underrated! This is a beautiful creamy blend of sandalwood, vanilla and coconut, warm and slightly gourmand, almost reminiscent of white chocolate, but with a fresh green twist. The myrtle and cypress notes make me think of an evergreen mediterranean forest by the sea. It smells softly spicy and very warm, a little balsamic, but in a rounded and smooth way. It reminds me of sun-kissed skin and sand, but it's not really beachy, it's more versatile than that. Very multifaceted in a soft way. It becomes even creamier and warmer as time goes on, but never cloying or heavy. Especially compared to other fragrances with noticeable coconut, Cadjmere is not loud. It's more of a skin scent that is unintrusive but not boring... I could hardly imagine anyone being offended by it. I'm not usually a big fan of woody scents, but I can't resist this sweet milky sandalwood. On my skin the lasting power is totally fine, though not extraordinarily great.

It was like mad love from the first sniff. Even tough I sampled about 10-12 other really good perfumes at the same time, Cadjmere was all I could think about. The others was like gloomy shadows in compare... Cadjmere is clear, soft, powdery, sweet, constant changing and so adorable. I sat with my nose attached to my wrist for hours... What comes next? Almost minty feeling sometimes, then changes in to soft, melted woods... if wood could be transformed into luxury pralines, it would smell like Cadjmere. A must try. Gorgeus. But, my first passion for Cadjmere have faded a little, I still love it, but new manage to judge it a little more critically... In the end Cadjemer isn ́t all that marvellous that I tought from the beginning, not a 10 +, but still very, very good. Definitly want to get more of this.

This is a stunning fragrance.....just a but too masculine for me. The cypress and sandalwood were incredibly dry and intense and really the focus in this. It dries down a little softer with a touch of vanille and a smidge of coconut. It never becomes sweet, just warm. Very fireside on me. On my husband?? It's one of the sexiest things I've ever smelled!! The cypress is tamed and smokey, the sandalwood brings a beautiful depth and the vanille just softens the edges. My hubby is a big beautiful grizzly bear of a man and this just ROCKS on him. All of the things that were just too much for me turn into something I'm not sure I want him wearing if I'm not around. Seriously, magnifcient! Men take notice.....this is definately worth trying.

A big winter favourite. Nutty sandalwood and rosewood, warm ambrette, soft vanilla, Cadjméré is teetering on gourmand (tiramisu!) but held in check by its aromatic note: the sublime, dirty-beautiful, earthy dustiness of cypress. It's this note that pushes the perfume into my top tier. The coconut listed by Fragrantica is the subtle, buttery coconut of sandalwood rather than standalone. And Cadjméré *is* smooth like cashmere, it has that soft, comforting, cushioned texture. I can't get enough of this one in the colder months. Combining sandalwood and vanilla with cypress this way may be Pierre Guillaume's finest hour.

The mix of coconut/mandarin turns unexpectedly to beeswax on me! And it is very welcome :) I agree with PitbullFriends find of oilpaint in the background, brilliant observation, PF! The vanilla is really berry sweet (a la Acqua e Zucchero) but a slight citrusy tartness shines through to keep the sweet reined in. Dries down as sugary almond(read Bois Farine)perfectly balanced by creamy coconut and sunwarmed cypress. After an hour it is so close to Bois Farine I decide I must get one of them! And then I guess Cadjmere wins the battle as it took a whole beautiful journey for it, to end up as Bois Farine. :)

This fragrance was a surprise. I tested it first; arms, wrist, neck etc. I was worried that the fragrance wouldn't last because I tend to soak them in very quickly and this was a EDT. Every now and then I smell the fragrance gently wafting from myself and I enjoy it! Each note makes it's appearance, delicately but you know it's there. They have this listed here as a both men and woman's fragrance. On lucky scent it's just under woman's fragrance. I personally feel it's to light and feminine to be on a man; but who know's it's a great fragrance that would smell wonderful on anyone!

This gorgeous scent makes me heavy-lidded. Involuntarily so. I love it because it is a definite woody scent, but one that is blurred and seen through a wash of white, creamy sandalwood and coconut. It has a sweetness to it that seems to operate in stealth mode--always present, but living underneath with a resinous depth that has a narcotic effect on me. Hypnotic. I love it. The sillage seems relatively strong while using the sample dabber, so if I were to purchase a full bottle I would be very tentative while spraying. IwantIwantIwant!!!

Its lovely, I think this is an excellent perfume that captures the sweetness of cypress & amber! On me I smell cederwood/cypress, sandalwood and amber - its very autumn/winter scent, and i find it very creamy mmmmm. Imagine sitting by the fire snuggling up kind of comfort scent. It reminds me of walking amongst cypress trees, rugged up on a cold day, with the smell of smoke in the air. I would love to smell this on my man....sadly he wont wear any fragrance. So i enjoy all to myself!

A warm, creamy sandalwood scent, easy to wear. Opening was super promising, with just a hint of citrus and a little coconut. Fades fast, too fast, and within an hour it was a skin scent. I love it but it vanished too quickly on me to justify a full bottle purchase. My guess is that it would perform better in warmer weather, but passing for now.

Orientation-You have just ordered a Creamsicle at the counter of the bowling alley. There is comforting contrast to the zest of the citrus from the lane oil over the dustiness of everything else and the woodiness of the shoe spray cuts the sweetness from the treat you hold in your hand. This is underrated and fantastic.

Green, forest, cream, friendly, soft. Very pretty , harmonious. It pacifies me, comforts and lusters. Smells exotically, magicly. I envisage, that smells like a indian forest. Very comfortable. Similar to Addict - green, claw note and sweetness vanilla, but Cadjmere is subtlest than Addict and more natural.

Why is Pierre Guillaume's line so beautiful and so fleeting? I love this very much, I used up half my sample in a day and no one could smell it (not even me). I've never tried a single thing from this house that didn't agree with me and yet they all suffer in the longevity department. Breaks my damn heart!

This is very nice. Essentially a thinner, more synthetic, shorter lived version of Coromandel. But since Coromandel is practically the best fragrance in existence, this is still high praise. Not really necessary though.

This perfume made me realize that vanilla doesn't have to be overwhelmingly sweet, with the woodsy balancing everything out. I love those scents that make you change your mind about what you think you like. I miss it.

The best one from PG. There are so many great fragrances from this house, but Cadjmere is 💥epic💥. It’s like amber sunlight, a woody breeze. It’s warm but not sweet, perfectly balanced.

Cashmere is gorgeous, soft, luxurious and expensive but makes you feel wonderful. Cashmere is also fragile and hard to maintain. Cadjmere: is the same. This is another beautiful but irritatingly short-lived PG scent which infatuates and then infuriates me at once. There's so much to love, particularly at the start. Every note in this is a favourite of mine and they're all done so well. The orange is zesty, classy, arousing, and works in absolute harmony with the rosewood & cypress at first, striking an elegant balance of sweet and bitter and aromatic which gives the first hour or so real character. On me it mellows fast, to yield a few more beautiful hours of warm, dusty sandalwood, lightly tinged with vanilla and coconut, but once again never getting sickly or cloying, just continuing to cuddle and snuggle and reinforce your spirits. Unfortunately it stays so close to the skin as to be almost 100% private - and even if I bury my nose to my wrist it's on the discreet side. And from 4-6h it mellows still further to become a bit generic, a bit samey - vanilla and amber and yeah whatever - for a while before fading away (*although it does linger longer, but only in this more generic warm-vanilla way, on fabric.) The first stages are so magical and individual, that this slow diminuendo feels like even more of a let-down than a faster, more abrupt end would. Exquisite AND exasperating at the same time. (I think fragrantica might need buttons for "meh" and "leaves me deeply conflicted" .... from love to hate just isn't a wide enough range of emotions!)
