Pros & Cons
- ✅ 12. november 2012 I would like to review this fragrance since i have tried it today in the shop and wearing now. Actually i have EDT on my left hand and Extract on my right wrist. Well, this is quite different form EDP and EDT. My opinion is that EDT is a complete waste of money, it´s sour and very watery and has no lasting power. Itś been a 3 hrs now and i can hardly smell it on my left hand. Now parfum is something different! This is all about cherry!!! Very intesnse cherry note, like a cherry liquour! Blast of the fruit notes and licorice, but still THE most dominanting note here IS cherry! It is quite heavy, that´s why i agree with those ones who voted that this version is suitable for colder time of the year, preferably winter. Now thisis the one i really like! Guerlain, you can discontinue EDT right away, i am not gonna spend any dime on this less than ordinary scent. I don´t even want to go for EDP now, all i want is this parfum only. And preferrably not the small 7,5 size, but the tester 30ml size!. It has a great sillage and colder weather just makes it bloom even more. After 3 hrs it still goes strong and only after 1 spray! Yes, there is vanilla, yes, i can detect the tea note, yes, there is a patchouli, but i repeat, this version is mostly about CHERRY! Fruity cherry! Oh, by the way! There is a lemon note and it´s fizzy! It ads a fantastic accord to the cherry and saves this one from becoming a headache provoking fragrance. Now this time Guerlian did a good job! :) UPDATE: Well, since it is a PARFUM concentration, i suppose it should last longer than it does actually. Some vintage EDT or EDC last as long as this one or some even longer time. After 6 hrs it has dissapeared. So now i am dissapointed with the lasitng power. I like my perfumes to last, especially in "extract" form. That´s the biggest minus of this version, though it still alsts longer than any other version of "PRN".
- ✅ L'Extrait for me similar as first Lolita Lempika's apple. Have both of them. Same notes, same mood...
- ✅ cher mais si plaisant, la quintessence de la petite robe noire, j'ai adoré l'extrait car tenue impeccable et sillage très bien, sent comme le parfum mais amande plus prononcée je trouve; excellent parfum
- ❌ I bought this in a sample size as someone excited for licorice, cherry, and almond. As someone who loved hypnotic poison, modern muse le rouge gloss, Miss Dior Chérie, and Prada candy gloss I felt like it may be a hit! I bought a sample Along with Lolita Lempicka. I feel like if you like Lempicka this may with with you! This felt too rich and syrupy for me. I love dark and I like sweet, but this was too much of both for me personally. Scents I’d say this sweetness / darkness could be comparable to would be black opium.
- ❌ distgusting and cheap! i can't stand this yucky scent by guerlain!!!!! shame on you!
