Libra

Omgosh this is bloody fab!!! An irresponsible blind buy purely based on my star sign but has paid off. This is a (slightly) cherry-juicy, accessible amber with a sprinkling of saffron and a hint of violet. Accessible in that it is easy to wear with a rich warmth without being too complicated. It’s not overly heavy or sweet. Elegant and lovely to wear - I look forward to spritzing it on despite my large and mostly niche collection. French Avenue have been nailing it lately!

Nose Note #729 Smells exactly like a sum of cherry, violet and myrrh!!! It has some nice fresh cherry sourness to it, but only slight. It may also come across as a red apple. Definitely a feminine scent. More mature. Nothing synthetic or cheap about it whatsoever. Smells like almost photorealistic cherry and violet. May not be the most crowd-pleasing and popular scent. It's more for a person that's educated in perfumery. Very strong. 7.8/10, not for boys

I dont enjoy carmina at all but this one i kinda like I get a smoky cherry with some roses and amber. Might be too smoky or heavy on saffron on the opening but the dry down - as always - turns out nice on skin.

To my nose this is extremely close to Mojave Ghost by Byredo. Opens with a sweet, slightly sour cherry swimming in shampoo. As it dries, the musky amber comes forward. Very feminine. I don’t think the “main accords” listed for this one are close at all. It is synthetic but it doesn’t scream in binary. ETA: Started using this as my car freshener. Lasts forever and doesn't cling to you when you get out

I think the information here is a little bit misleading. All I got is fruity and some floral notes, nothing warm, nothing deep. This fragrance reminds me of teenagers perfume like DKNY Red Delicious. I hope macerating might help but it’s absolutely not my fav now. Anyway, it does projects pretty well.
