Cas

The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives, where the crispness of fresh spices blends with the rich warmth of vanilla and leather.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Cas by Tiziana Terenzi, launched in 2017 and crafted by Paolo Terenzi, is a Woody Spicy fragrance that balances the freshness of green notes with the warmth of amber and vanilla. The composition opens with black and pink pepper alongside green bell pepper, creating an unexpected contrast that adds depth and complexity. As it settles, agarwood (oud) and birch provide a smoky, earthy foundation, while musk and leather add an animalic touch. This interplay between fresh spiciness and rich warmth makes Cas both intriguing and captivating.

How to wear it

Cas projects best when applied close to the skin — its animalic base notes take time to bloom fully. One or two sprays are sufficient; the green and spicy top notes fade quickly, but the amber and musky base lasts throughout the day.
