Fugazzi Cash Flower is a unisex perfume in an extrait concentration, launched in 2023.
It is an expressive composition at the intersection of spicy, floral, ambery, musky and woody accords, created for those who enjoy modern fragrances with a soft yet distinctive personality.
The release comes from the young Dutch niche house Fugazzi.
Founded in 2018, the brand is known for its bold approach to perfumery and its unisex format. Cash Flower is therefore perceived not as strictly feminine or masculine, but as a versatile olfactory expression suited to any style.
The impression of Cash Flower is built around the contrast between a spicy impulse, floral softness and a warm ambery-woody base.
Black pepper adds energy and a subtle piquancy, rose softens the composition, while cashmeran creates a distinctive, dimensional texture with nuances of warm wood and musk.
As it develops, the fragrance becomes rounder and calmer.
Amber and musk connect the top accents with the base, making the transition smooth, while sandalwood lends the drydown a creamy woody depth.
As a result, Cash Flower remains cohesive and harmonious without turning into an overloaded bouquet of individual notes.
Cash Flower has a light sillage, so it does not try to fill the entire space around you.
It stays close to the skin and will appeal to those who prefer a delicate, personal aura to an intense cloud of fragrance.
For application to the skin, the “walk through a cloud” technique works well: spray the fragrance into the air and gently walk through it for a light, even veil.
One or two sprays are enough on clothing, especially when the fabric holds scent well.
This dosage helps preserve the elegance of the composition without muting its spicy-musky nuances.
In terms of mood, it is a versatile choice for transitional seasons, a cool evening, an office without a strict dress code or a relaxed meeting in the city.
On the skin, the fragrance is especially fitting when you want to add soft warmth, quiet confidence and a touch of niche mystery to your look.
Cash Flower continues Fugazzi’s characteristic play with gender boundaries and expressive accords.
It combines the spiciness of black pepper, the floral inflection of rose, the warmth of amber and a clean musky-woody base — a combination that easily adapts to different looks and moods.
If you would like to compare it with fragrances in a similar oriental-ambery style, consider The Spirit of Dubai Turath.
For further exploration of a similar atmosphere, you might also consider Al Haramain Perfumes Madinah and Edgardio Chilini The Great Gatsby. Cash Flower, however, stands out with its more intimate sillage and its emphasis on a soft, personal development.
This fragrance will appeal to those looking for a unisex composition with rose but no overt sweetness, a spicy perfume without excessive sharpness and a woody-musky drydown without heaviness.
Cash Flower works especially well for lovers of distinctive yet comfortable fragrances that feel more like a stylish finishing touch than a loud statement.
The fragrance has low persistence and lasts on the skin for about 2–3 hours, gradually fading and smoothly revealing its main notes
A subtle trail—just a hint of fragrance
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The top notes open with black pepper, cashmeran, and rose, creating a spicy, warm, and subtly floral opening.
At the heart of the composition, amber and musk unfold, making the scent softer, fuller, and more harmonious. The base is built around sandalwood with a creamy woody facet.
The full list of notes also includes amber, black pepper, cashmeran, rose, sandalwood, and musk.
As a result, the fragrance develops from a piquant floral accent into a calm, ambery-musky trail with a soft woody depth.
