I really don’t understand all the people comparing this one to JPG Le Male, it defiantly has it’s own thing going on imo.
Dark_Insanity – :
I’ve found something like Yves Rocher Hoggar but dont how close or how far it might be from ECF. I dont remember ECF, could you help me if you can compare both of them ECF and YRH?

A throwback fragrance when held up against current releases’.
Complex, masculine…a reminder of what fragrances were, prior to the current regulations that created reformulations…as well as what the current trends in male perfumery demand.
It’s slightly sweet but not gourmand, slightly floral but not the least bit feminine. Some patch but not used in a the way that seems ubiquitous nowadays. A big hit of lavender and a touch of oakmoss to connect it to the classic male fragrances of days gone by.
I agree with the post below that the combined effect does create a slight licorice accord, which can be hit or miss, based upon individual tastes for that polarizing note.
I get 10 hours longevity with this one and surprising sillage for the first 3 – 4 hours. Standing projection is moderate once it dries down.
As I said, this is a throwback. No designers are creating anything like this today. Accordingly, a young person may not find it appealing.
This is worth trying if you can get some for a reasonable price, if only for reference and comparison to todays offerings.

I love it but Unfortunately discontinued.. 🙁
I couldn´t find anything like this, very sexy and lovely..
What do you think about something like this fragrance? Do you know fragrance like it?
sergeymaster – :
While I don´t like Escada Pour Homme, I adore Escada Pour Homme Casual Friday.
It´s one of those scents which came above its time.
Casual Friday is a delicious fragrance.
What I get is spicy vanilla.
It might smell like a couple of fragrances but I couldn´t find anything like it.
If it would come out these days it would be a hit.

يك ادكلن مردانه و مجلل و شرقي – چوبي – ادويه اي است. با شروعي كمي تند ، به رايحه اي گرم و مطبوع ادويه اي و نتهاي خوراكي و مخلوطي از رايحه مشروبي و شكلاتي تبديل مي شود. نتهاي ادويه اي گرم به همراه ادويه هاي تازه ، بسيار خوشبو و معطر، لذت تجربه رايحه اي منحصر بفرد را بوجود آورده است . در مرحله اول رايحه هاي ترنج و گشنيز و لاوندر و مخصوصا انيس و پچولي كاملا مشخص هستند و سپس در مرحله بعدي رايحه اي ادويه اي گلي ، شامل نتهاي ميخك و گل برف و دارچين و ياس و هل ، رايحه را به مرحله آخر در نت پايه ميرساند كه در آن طراوت چوب سرو به همراه نتهاي خاكي خزه بلوط و پچولي و وانيل و كهربا ، مخلوطي قوي و لطيف و نيمه شيرين ، با بيسي از تونكا را بوجود آورده است.
رايحه اي كه از نت دوم به بعد به مشام ميرسد ، بسيار شبيه رايحه ادكلن Givenchy pi است .
اين ادكلن براي فصول بهار و پاييز و زمستان و مخصوصا براي مصرف در روز پيشنهاد مي شود.
ماندگاري اين ادكلن حدود 6 ساعت بر روي پوست است كه پس از يك ساعت رايحه آن به پوست ميچسبد و از پخش بوي متوسطي برخوردار است.
شيشه مات و خاكي رنگ اين ادكلن با برچسبي چهار رنگ بر روي آن از طراحي ساده ولي قوي برخوردار است.
عليرغم رايحه زيبا و دلنشيني كه اين ادكلن دارد، متاسفانه توليد آن سالهاست كه متوقف شده است و به اين دليل، قيمت بسيار بالايي در بازار دارد.

I remember this fragrance. It was just a Le Male copy from that bunch.
MagicVooDoo – :
I have got 2 of this (125 mls. 4.2 oz), I picked them up yesterday, in a going-out-of-business sale, here in Córdoba, México, I have to admit it’s a delicious scent, not properly I expected, but works more than perfect. Today I aplied just 2 sprayings (nape and chest) and the compliments that I received by co-workers were remarkable; moreover, the personal enjoyment that this fragance gives is outstanding!
If someone of you is interested in buying the other one bottle, send me a private message…
Vikki_44_ – :
one of the best…
wonderfullllll….
Adalgisaop9 – :
Scored a vintage 125ml. bottle of this frag and I am so happy it smells similar to the vintage Xeryus in that fancy metallic bottle minus the ash/incense vibe.
ilc265speagoessenda – :
Tried this one hand on hand with m7..
M7 much better for me…this one just good for me…
No more no less
mda138elipseskism – :
I wanted to try Casual Friday for over a year and finally bought a bottle.
Nice!
It reminds me of Jean Paul Gaultier’s le Male (but more mainstream/safe), mixed with YSL Body Kouros (but less lineair and somewhat fresher) and maybe a bit Lempicka’s l’eau Masculin (but less sweet).
The drydown has this lush smell, like it a lot!
8/10
Edit:
Unfortunately my experiences took a turn for the worse. The last few times CF wash harsh and bold, not in a good way. Lineair as well. Maybe I have become pickier about scents!
6/10
klop – :
A masculine lavender scent. Just downright pleasant from start to finish. This goes to the top of my rotation.
Ericjediss – :
@Papi: I just saw one (125 ml) sell on ebay for $349.99! I’ve never tried it and have no interest in it, but something seems to be going on, because there are too many ebay sales at high prices for this to be some sort of attempt to drive up prices (and it’s similar for other scents that I think are nothing great, like V Valentino Men). This seems to be the “new reality,” whether we like it or not.
Adrenalin15 – :
It’s a chame one of the best fragrance i ever smeld and discontinued :((((
ворчун78 – :
I spray it to my arm and…………….WOW!!!!!!!
it’s just different scent for day and night times, it’s a treasure. Good job Dominique Ropion.
Update:
C’mon don’t make me dissapointed because I hear this fragrance Discontinued, I tell you, if you have a chance find this fragrance at online store or retail, pretty sure bring this home and take another bottle for backup, I guess you’ll never regret it.
Sillage 9/10
Longevity 8/10
Scent 9.5/10

First time I received the sample from a friend, I like it.. that was 3 months a go and now I have 5 bottles of this gem. I think it was sold out anywhere here in my country now… 😀 Lol.
3 days a go I tried 1 spray of Givenchy pi fraische… they’re like twin sisters!
For those who looking for escada c friday try it. Get a sample of givenchy pi fraische.
agreefrelo – :
chocolate anise. Reminds me of soft australian liquorice. Polo double black is the new age version of this but more fruity.
pewqzgifwbeq – :
There are a whole lot of fragrances out there that deserve to be discontinued, but certainly not this gem.
I’m a woman and I love wearing it. It gets really sweet on my skin and the hint of aftershave keep people guessing. Top notes smell typically of men’s cologne, but wait till you get to the dry down where the woody notes mingle with chocolate, creating something sweet, bitter and aromatic all at the same time.
The perfect fragrance for when i want to be taken seriously 😉
teacher13 – :
Am desperate for this fragrance, but no way on Earth is it worth what people are trying to get, no wonder they haven’t sold. Back to this tho, do I remember smells of Chocolate, cinnamon and vanilla?
Davamilioner – :
چه بوی عجیبی داشت.یادش بخیر.دوستش داشتم
rekaanin – :
This is decent stuff. I smelled the fragrance when it was available and actually own a couple 50ml of the after shave balm. Good – but not spectacular. It is its name in a bottle – I see this as a nice warm weather scent that is semi-sweet. The olfactory notes here are not overwhelming…for me, mostly tonka bean mixed with a little anise and some citrus. A dash of cardamom and cedar, but there is very little woodiness – just an aromatic note. I will refrain from bashing it, because it isn’t bad. But – a masterpiece? No, but Monsieur Ropion’s name is behind it…so, perhaps a little hyped? Decent, but for a casual Friday on holiday at the beach or on a patio…7/10.
Ramon1983 – :
Please re-issue this!!!!!!!!
misa.josan – :
I’m surprised that there are not more people gaga over this stuff. It is sort of an anisey Le Male with a touch of wood. There is a strong anise vanilla lavender combo going on over a very subtle woody tonka base. If you like Le Male and you like anise, as many do, it would seem you would love this. Judging by the price it goes for, many do love it. Apparently, it is not readily available anymore, and the last remaining bottles are going at a premium. I have to say it is unique as far as fragrances go. Though it smells like a combination of other fragrances, there are no others that smell like this. All you Le Male fans that are sick of smelling like the others, give this a try. Not only does it smell better, but you will likely be the only one wearing it.
Actually, this is closer to Tabacco Vanille than Le Male. The sillage and longevity of this stuff is off the charts!
a1974m – :
I found a new bottle at Goodwill,as a worker we could pick from toiletries they don’t resale them.This is the cologne a man should wear.I would wear it in place of Ralph Lauren Safari.
Igrok08 – :
To all you people reading it, whom are selling it online for a price +120 dollars a botle;
****You should be ashamed of your self!****
bdgiiilka – :
This is one of the understated and relatively unknown perfumes out there and it’s a pity it has been discontinued (unless you want to pay a three-digit figure on ebay). It’s subtle and fresh, while it has a comfortable and relaxed warmth – an ideal day fragrance in my opinion.
suchok080886 – :
Hi
UPDATE
This is really OUTSTANDING fragrance i cant stop my self using it every day & night i think im in love with this one.
I dont know why this is not so popular becoz its just far better from many other popular fragrances .
Now i can call it a MASTERPIECE from SCADA.
ROZZA – :
hi
Lucky me , finally i put my hand on this scarce masterpiece yesterday , i couldnt believe my self , why people say it is discontinued .
This is a very sophisticated scent you just cannot stop smelling it , what a wounderful combination of bergamot,lavender and patchouli.
very good longevity specially on clothes and sillage is also gr8.
Really amaazing.
This one should be a must have for any perfume lover.
definetely it is one of my favourate.
andrkit – :
If you miss this discontiued perfume. Try “Fahrenheit Absolute”. It smells just like this but with a splash of the original Fahrenheit.
Note: They wouldn’t let me take a real sample at the store,
only on paper.
oks_ko – :
Yet another wonderful scent that got discontinued! Do scent makers ever listen to what people love and want???
It has everything I love in perfume: sweet, spicy and woody notes. Very versatile – good to be worn during the day as well as – contrary to what the name suggests – on very formal occasions! It’s delicious!
If only I could lay my hands on it..
essecer – :
I know so many people don’t wear this fragrance or even don’t know about it,but it’s under-rated.
it starts with sharp,soapy and a bit bitter smelling.lavender is dominant.it starts the same way as Escada into the blues and like that perfume,this one has a much better middle notes.
it becomes delicious,yet manly with a hint of tropical fruits that I like more than anything in it.
it ends with spicy notes mixed with bitterness of oakmoss.
by the way,Dominique Ropion is very famous and has made so many of my favorite perfumes.I’m surprised that this one is not as successful as some of her legendary perfumes(alien,tresor,euphoria,very irresistible..)but I can say that it deserve trying if you can find it in stores.
johnny85 – :
it’s exactly what a man should smell like.at first smell I though,God,it’s repetetive,even similar to Axe eau de colognes!but after some minutes it becomes more warm,with some woody and fruity undescribeable notes.what catches my eye about this fragrance is that it never becomes overwhelming.it’s very light,though it can not be ignored.that’s the point and did I mentioned that it’s sexy too?!
koltsoff.alek – :
It’s a very, soft, sexy and masculine smell
