    My first niche perfume and what a blast. What better way to start? It’s totally different and special: opens with glazed cherry, spices, and what I smell as chocolate (the notes list coffee), then flowers, and a sweet cherry dry down. It’s not overly sweet or cloying, nor does it smell like those avo-caramel gourmands or Scandal’s unbearable caramel. It’s more for cold weather and winter, perfect for special occasions. This is my first fragrance from this brand, and I guarantee it won’t be the last. At first sniff, it feels like something unique that no one else wears. At first, it might surprise or even disgust you, but over time you realize it’s a work of art. Yes, it’s pricey (175 euros for 100ml), but you won’t regret it.

    My first niche perfume, what a show. Impossible to start better. Such a different and special thing. Glazed cherry at the start with spices and what I perceive as chocolate (the notes list coffee). Flowers as it dries down and a sweet cherry base. Not excessively sweet or cloying. Far away from avo-gourmands or Scandal’s unbearable caramel. More for cold and winter, for special occasions. First perfume from this brand and it won’t be the last. At a simple sniff, you can tell it’s not something normal, something you never smell on anyone else. At first, it might surprise and even disgust, but with time you realize it’s a work of art. Yes, it’s expensive (175 euros for 100ml), but you won’t regret it.

    It smells like Ambre Narguile, Oajan, Ambre Tabac, and Khaltat Night on me. I don’t detect the cherry touch as much as I’d expect it to be the main accord in the pyramid…
