Bertrand Duchaufour has achieved a completely original creation here, whose sumptuousness is perhaps overshadowing its delicious side. Like a fabric, a rich velvet or an antique embroidered silk, but also, in a completely different register, like a grandmother's dessert, a nostalgic evocation of lost paradises but also a true pleasure that can be worn on a daily basis. Bertrand Duchaufour explores a rarely taken path here, starting with transparent and delicate pear accords to combine them with one of the most beautiful raw materials: osmanthus. Pear accord, osmanthus, licorice wood (the licorice wood accord coming from the presence of woody notes), moss, myrrh associated with certain base components characteristic of the licorice note for this floral fruity woody chypre.

Love the inspiration for this fragrance..it certainly raised my expectations and I was not disapppointed. I am not a cherry fan (at all) but the black cherry note intrigued me. The initial blast is very cherry...medicinal cherry.. but that passes in a split second and the fragrance develops into a beautiful, elegant, slightly sweet composition of loveliness. This is exceptional..all class. I will be buying a full bottle and Im eager to try others from this house now. Longevity is only ok. Unisex in my view.
One of the best Summer/Tropical scents out there. Does lean more feminine to my nose but a man can definitely wear this on a hot day no worries. This is a strong fruit scent, sweet but not in a sugary dessert way, for me there is a pleasant mango/fig vibe. Notably this scent stays consistent throughout the entire dry down which is a good thing. Overall this is one of the best Summer scents out there, I just wish it leaned more masculine.
