Casual Friday is a male fragrance introduced in 1999, classified as woody and luxurious, created by Dominique Ropion. Lustful bergamot, coriander, lavender, Cotton-flower, anise, and patchouli are at the top notes, while the heart bumps with spicy floral scents of carnation, lily of the valley, cinnamon, jasmine and cardamom. The base is refreshed by cedar along with earthy notes of oakmoss, patchouli, Tonka bean, vanilla and amber.

This is decent stuff. I smelled the fragrance when it was available and actually own a couple 50ml of the after shave balm. Good - but not spectacular. It is its name in a bottle - I see this as a nice warm weather scent that is semi-sweet. The olfactory notes here are not overwhelming...for me, mostly tonka bean mixed with a little anise and some citrus. A dash of cardomom and cedar, but there is very little woodiness - just an aromatic note. I will refrain from bashing it, because it isn't bad. But - a masterpiece? No, but Monsieur Ropion's name is behind it...so, perhaps a little hyped? Decent, but for a casual Friday on holiday at the beach or on a patio...7/10.
Please re-issue this!!!!!!!!
I'm surprised that there are not more people gaga over this stuff. It is sort of an anisey Le Male with a touch of wood. There is a strong anise vanilla lavender combo going on over a very subtle woody tonka base. If you like Le Male and you like anise, as many do, it would seem you would love this. Judging by the price it goes for, many do love it. Apparently, it is not readily available anymore, and the last remaining bottles are going at a premium. I have to say it is unique as far as fragrances go. Though it smells like a combination of other fragrances, there are no others that smell like this. All you Le Male fans that are sick of smelling like the others, give this a try. Not only does it smell better, but you will likely be the only one wearing it.
Actually, this is closer to Tabacco Vanille than Le Male. The sillage and longevity of this stuff is off the charts!
I found a new bottle at Goodwill,as a worker we could pick from toiletries they don't resale them.This is the cologne a man should wear.I would wear it in place of Ralph Lauren Safari.
To all you people reading it, whom are selling it online for a price +120 dollars a botle;
****You should be ashamed of your self!****
i'm very curious .
i never smell it , but all reviews shows compliment .
This is one of the understated and relatively unknown perfumes out there and it's a pity it has been discontinued (unless you want to pay a three-digit figure on ebay). It's subtle and fresh, while it has a comfortable and relaxed warmth - an ideal day fragrance in my opinion.
This is the best cologne ever... Were can I get more of it.. Please help...
Why would they discontinue this cologne?
The smell is fantastic!!! were can I purchase it? Please I need this cologne!!!
What happened to this cologne??? I have never written a cologne review before but I have to say this was the best cologne ever! One day, in the crowded streets of downtown Nairobi, a street urchin was hovering right under my arms. I move-he moves with me. He didnt want money-he just wanted to keep smelling me :-) best compliment ever.
Hi
UPDATE
This is really OUTSTANDING fragrance i cant stop my self using it every day & night i think im in love with this one.
I dont know why this is not so popular becoz its just far better from many other popular fragrances .
Now i can call it a MASTERPIECE from SCADA.
hi
Lucky me , finally i put my hand on this scarce masterpiece yesterday , i couldnt believe my self , why people say it is discontinued .
This is a very sophisticated scent you just cannot stop smelling it , what a wounderful combination of bergamot,lavender and patchouli.
very good longevity specially on clothes and sillage is also gr8.
Really amaazing.
This one should be a must have for any perfume lover.
definetely it is one of my favourate.
If you miss this discontiued perfume. Try "Fahrenheit Absolute". It smells just like this but with a splash of the original Fahrenheit.
Note: They wouldn't let me take a real sample at the store,
only on paper.
Yet another wonderful scent that got discontinued! Do scent makers ever listen to what people love and want???
It has everything I love in perfume: sweet, spicy and woody notes. Very versatile - good to be worn during the day as well as - contrary to what the name suggests - on very formal occasions! It's delicious!
If only I could lay my hands on it..
It's scarce
Can't find a place in London UK to buy this perfume that was made for me, would appreciate any help in pointing me to the direction of this gem.
I know so many people don't wear this fragrance or even don't know about it,but it's under-rated.
it starts with sharp,soapy and a bit bitter smelling.lavender is dominant.it starts the same way as Escada into the blues and like that perfume,this one has a much better middle notes.
it becomes delicious,yet manly with a hint of tropical fruits that I like more than anything in it.
it ends with spicy notes mixed with bitterness of oakmoss.
by the way,Dominique Ropion is very famous and has made so many of my favorite perfumes.I'm surprised that this one is not as successful as some of her legendary perfumes(alien,tresor,euphoria,very irresistible..)but I can say that it deserve trying if you can find it in stores.
it's exactly what a man should smell like.at first smell I though,God,it's repetetive,even similar to Axe eau de colognes!but after some minutes it becomes more warm,with some woody and fruity undescribeable notes.what catches my eye about this fragrance is that it never becomes overwhelming.it's very light,though it can not be ignored.that's the point and did I mentioned that it's sexy too?!
It's a very, soft, sexy and masculine smell
