Caleche (for women)
Designer: Hermes Olfactive Group: Floral AldehydeCaleche is a beautiful floral-aldehyde fragrance with woody notes in the base. It is classic and old-fashioned in the best sense of the word: distinctive and relaxing. The main notes are: lemon, bergamot, neroli, lily. Vetiver and sandalwood in the base give this perfume a unique character that is not easy to forget. The perfume was created by Guy Robert in 1961. Caleche was launched in 1961.

The current version of Caleche is a very diluted, cheap formula. A perfume which would make a passable masculine, but definetely not a good feminine.
I see a middle aged woman, wearing only beige, a person who doesn't want to stand out, never speaks up and whose lips are pursed. That woman will not flirt with you, she is so descent, so beige.

... with all my respect to Hermes and to those, who like this perfume, I have to admit that for me it smells "an old lady's bag"...
I tried aroma in EDT, EDP and Soie de Parfum (unfortunately, in concentration perfume i have not found yet), but all that I smell are "senile" aldehydes :(

With Caleche, the words 'classy' and 'elegant' come up time and time again. How very true. To my mind, this is the Grace Kelly of perfumes: beautiful and refined. Would like to smell the difference between the EDT and EDP.

I'd rate this a 3.5 out of 5. Caleche EDP is very elegant and feminine. A true woody chypre. It is a classic sort of fragrance with a slight edgy dryness. My first impression of Caleche on my skin, was that it reminded me of wine. Caleche is a full-bodied & velvety dry Italian wine, with juicy tannins. Caleche EDP I save for special occasions when I want to feel classy & sophisicated. It's not a scent I would want to wear everyday nor, is it a scent that is 'me', but it is a masterpiece in it's own right.

In my head, this sits next to Cristalle, but is even more elegant and richly dry.

Last perfume bought by my uncle for my Nana ( aunt). The last fragrance she ever wore. It reminds me of this classy, elegant woman and I will always have a bottle in my cabinet.
