Byredo Casablanca Lily was launched in 2019 and then relaunched in 2025 - this is the 2025 edition.. Part of the Night Veils collection, this is an extrait.
From Byredo's description - "Casablanca Lily was inspired by the thriving city that rises on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. From its Berber roots to its colonial heritage, Casablanca’s modern identity is a mix of diverse cultures, a place in constant change between tradition and modernity. Given time, the city unravels itself, revealing the most amazing corners, a vibrant kaleidoscope of Moroccan life found nowhere else. The fragrance surrounds you like the elegance of the city that inspired it: abundance, richness and grandeur combined."
