WoodyWhat does Cherry Ambition smell like?
The top is dominated by the sweetness of cherry, plum and marshmallow, with mandarin orange and pink pepper adding a light lift. In the heart, orris root, saffron, osmanthus and cherry blossom push the fruit towards a powdery, spicy side. The base of amber, musk, vanilla, frankincense and gaiac wood gives it a soft, woody footing.
Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring is not far behind. Evening, daily wear and night out get similar support. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters lean towards feminine, with modern a clear second. Pana Dora Moonlight and Kayali Chocolate Oud | 11 have a close profile.
