Casablanca by Swiss Arabian captures the luminous floral-citrus character of La Belle quite effectively, with the prominent tuberose and orange blossom notes translating well. However, the base feels slightly warmer and more amber-forward compared to the original's cleaner sandalwood foundation, resulting in a marginally sweeter finish.
The clone performs reasonably well on the floral heart but substitutes sandalwood with amber in the base, creating a sweeter drydown. Longevity and sillage are marginally lighter than the original designer fragrance.
What people who wear Swiss Arabian Casablanca report, based on votes and reviews from a large fragrance community.
“Incredible performance for the price, the most prominent notes for me are amber and musk it's delicious and quite androgynous. Every time I catch a whiff of it I instantly think, who smells good? Wouldn't recommend if you're looking for something ultra gourmand even though I would say it has aspects of gourmand, or if you aren't a fan of quite warm and heavy fragrances. Though i wouldn't classify it as only a winter scent it might be overpowering in the summer.”
“The initial spray is fruity you can definitely smell the grape/apple but the the drydown is caramel and surprisingly very woodsy. It smells like walking into a candy shop making fresh caramel apples during autumn. The patchouli in this gives it a pleasant musky quality. Even if you dislike patchouli it’s light enough that i wouldn’t necessarily pinpoint it unless I read the notes. Overall for the price this perfume is a great value sillage is great, it’s unique enough I can justify my already large gourmand collection.”
“It is by NO MEANS a dupe or sister to Dama Bianca, but it’s a cousin for sure! I’m getting that malted vanilla scent that makes Dama Bianca unique, except Casablanca is more woodsy! Dama Bianca isn’t juvenile by any means but Casablanca is more mature and sultry nonetheless. If you like Dama Bianca in spring and summer, you’ll love Casablanca in the fall and winter.”
