What does Dark Cherry & Amber smell like?

It opens with black cherry and pink freesia; in the heart, cherry blossom and praliné sweeten it toward a gourmand feel. Red amber and cedarwood settle underneath as a warm, woody base. Floral, fruity and sweet accords lead.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and leisure wear lead the occasions. Though unisex, most votes read it as feminine. Vera Wang Be Jeweled Rouge and Victor de Manoz Picota Roja have a close profile.
