Scent Journey
The first 0-30 minutes are a burst of juicy cherry and tropical pineapple, with a hint of coconut water that adds a refreshing, almost effervescent quality. The cherry is bright and slightly tart, but immediately softened by a creamy undertone that hints at the lactonic heart to come.
As the fragrance settles into its heart (1-2 hours), the floral notes emerge—almond blossom, apple blossom, and mimosa—intertwining with the fruit to create a delicate, powdery sweetness. The cherry becomes more rounded, and the whipped cream begins to make its presence known, lending a velvety texture that feels like silk on the skin.
After 4+ hours, the base notes take center stage. Whipped cream, vanilla, and praline form a rich, gourmand foundation, while cedar adds a subtle woody depth that grounds the composition. The cherry persists, now more jammy and sweet, creating a lingering trail that is both comforting and sophisticated.
Performance Dashboard
8-10 hours on skin, with a noticeable presence for most of the day. The scent evolves beautifully, maintaining its character without fading too quickly.
Projects at arm's length for the first few hours, then settles into a more personal aura. It is not a loud fragrance, but it certainly makes its presence known.
Moderate sillage—leaves a soft, inviting trail that is noticeable but not overpowering. It stays close to the skin, making it ideal for intimate settings.
