What does Raw Cherry Extreme smell like?
It opens with bergamot and black cherry. The heart turns dense and creamy with plum, Bourbon vanilla, tonka bean and dark chocolate. The base adds gaiac wood, sandalwood and patchouli for woody depth, with nutmeg giving a spicy edge. Fruity and oriental accords dominate.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, so it makes itself known from a distance. There are no season or occasion votes to lean on, but its heavy sweetness suits both men and women. Aaron Terence Hughes Zeus / Daddy and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Elixir Absolu have a close profile.
