Seductive Red

I love this. I'm going to have to buy the biggest bottle and some back up bottles, simply because this smells just like Cloud from Ariana Grande, but I can find a big bottle of this for much cheaper. It smells like Cloud mixed with a rose note. I'm not really getting cherry. Maybe cherry mixed with rose, but it's not a cherry sucker type scent for me. I don't see a rose note in this but something is giving the vibe of sweet red roses. This reminds me of that Body Fantasies Vampire perfume. I used to be absolutely obsessed with it as a teenager. I always thought, that is how Bella smells to Edward🤣 it was so feminine, and sweet. It was very intoxicating to my nose, and I felt like the "it girl" whenever I wore it This smells almost exactly like that perfume as well. So Vampire mixed with Cloud. Love it❤️🌹 Side note: For those who haven't smelled Cloud, it has a specific DNA which stems from Baccarat Rouge 540. It's like lactonic, cotton candy or whipped cream mixed with slight lavender in the opening. The base is very odd and polarizing to some people because it smells more masculine. I've seen people describe it so many different ways: plastic, baby diapers, cardboard, men's cologne, newspaper. For me it's newspaper, wet diapers and the inside of a Hollister store that's been drenched in cologne🤣 anyways, this is just a descriptor for people who don't know how Cloud smells, since I kinda used it to describe Seductive Red.

First impressions... Bought Seductive Red, today. It was a blind-buy. First spritz: in the air I got the cherry note first and up front and it was love at first sniff! My only qualm, at that moment, was why didn't I trust my gut and get this soon enough (fun fact: I love a cherry note). Smells like a juicy, syrupy, sugary, sweet, florescent red maraschino cherry! I love it! I wish it stayed that way the whole way through, but it sits there, up top, long enough to enjoy. Maybe like a few minutes. Then it develops into a warm, soft, slightly nutty, powdery, ambery dry down. Similar to cloud but not exactly the same either. [Edit: AG Cloud base is more masculine leaning, creamy, cooler, ozonic and airy. SR base is warmer, airy and ambery (like spun sugar) but also woody, a little spicy; reminiscent of saffron.] It's lasting on my skin for a couple of hours which is a lot longer than Seductive Noir (which I used to own and longevity was very weak, like half an hour). But projection is close to skin even though the scent is pretty strong. I can only smell it well enough if it's right up under my nose. This will be perfect for the cooler months, especially fall. My only regret, I wish I got the 100 ml instead of the 50 ml. Update (6.22.23) : Lasts longer on fabric about 8+ hours... on my skin, about 3-4 hours but quickly turns into a skin scent

I absolutely LOVE this scent ♥ !!! It is a damn shame the longevity is so short - after a couple hours it disappears completely no matter what I do... The scent itself is absolutely heavenly in my opinion - sweet and sour cherry, underlying light floral and woody notes. At the same time so fresh & fruity and sensual & seductive (as the name would imply ahah). A perfect quintessential cherry fragrance. As a person that adores cherry perfume this was an absolute jackpot. The notes list vanilla, but I personally never smell any, so if you dislike vanilla I would recommend you give it a try. I feel like this perfume could not give anyone a headache ahah. Perfect all year round ♥ I would definitely agree it's more "girly" than "mature", so if you're not a young lady like me I would potentially watch out for that x I got a bottle of Seductive Red body mist as a gift and was immediately so in love that I decided to reach for the perfume. It is indeed extremely affordable, but I would gladly pay top dollar to get a more long-lasting version of this exact fragrance!! x

I've been wanting to jump on the cherry bandwagon and quickly learned that strong cherry forward fragrances did not work for me. This is one that I love and suits me, as there's a balance of florals and creamy-ness from the almond, and a bit of depth with the cinnamon/tonka that makes it more complex than straight cherry. While it does smell a bit more on the sweet candy side of cherry, it's still pretty good. For comparison, it's not as lollipop candy-like as Sweet by Lolita Lempika, but not as boozy deep as Lost Cherry or Zara Cherry Smoothie. It's somewhere in between, maybe like a less sweet maraschino cherry. Slightly boozy as well but I find that dissipates through dry down. I personally can't smell Cloud, I only get the burnt latex/exhaust scent so I can't comment on if it is similar but interesting to know I have a reference point to what Cloud is now :) 3 sprays on my arm gives light projection, and fades within 4 hours, after which leaves a very light vanilla skin scent.

I bought it on the hunt for a mystery cherry fragrance that I tested yet couldn't remember and it's not this one. That being said - this is starting to become my signature scent and I was not prepared for that. I don't even know how I would describe the scent, because to me - or on me - there is no cherry. Yes it's sweet, yes it's powdery, yes it's a bit floral while still having a little depth to it, but there isn't really a cherry - and yet, it's sexy. It's not a vixen perfume, it's not a dark, ripe, oozing cherry that tells stories of nighttime adventures. It's not giving sexy secretary, it's giving - cute business casual girl at the office front desk who just has that little something you can't fully explain. It's a flirty, professional little scent and I love it a lot. I don't know it's something I could wear during the summer though.
