Amarena Whim

I really really am taken to another place with this one. Even without knowing the notes I could tell about almonds, cherries, vanilla and something earthy as well. Amarena Whim delights you with almonds at the very first moments, let it settle - get the cherries on earthy base. It's like dark park I used to have close to house I lived when I was small and nice little girl. This park was my favorite place to take a walk and the earthy note in Amarena Whim smells just like soil I could smell when I was hiding in cypresses near old, mossy green headstones (actually there was monument, but I'm not sure)- it's misterious, somewhat pleasant- that's where my romance started. It's jucy (cherry), thick (vanilla, one of the best vanilla I sniffed recently), misterious, dark and definitely enchanting... Not sexy, but romantic and attractive. Bottle of 30 ml (I saw only those in my local store)is small and cute- the flowers adorned to it makes me want it for myself, so I hope to get it after Feminite du Bois. <3

You are right - cherry note in it is absolutely delicious and pleasant. It is slightly sour, and is not too sweet -it is rather fresh I would say. Imagine the very last stage of original Lolita Lempickas drydown, then add a bold and juicy cherry note. That is what Amarena Whim smells like. I do not get much almond on my skin. I layer it with my Body Shop Wild Cherry body butter, which I think complements this scent. Overall, I find it absolutely enjoyable, spring/summer fragrance. The only problem I have with it is lasting power - at first it lingers really well around you but then becomes hardly detectable after 3-4 hours :( This is EDP but even by LL EDT lasts much longer. But I dont mind doing touch ups throughout the day as this scent is very uplifting and optimistic.

One of the best (and rarest) Lolita's flankers that on the "different" side! On fragrantica page it is also listed under the name Caprice Amarena. It is yummiest Baileys Almande kind of opening, - crushed almonds with cherry-liqueur and marzipan, creamy gourmand at its best. Also reminds me of Italian liqueur Disaronno Amaretto, - rich and bewildering. Lolita Amarena is something you can almost taste, rather then smell. Happy girls party-mood comes from this bottle. It doesn't have licorice or violets, but it is positively on good side, way better than latest nutty red versions - Sweet, So Sweet, Sweet Kiss and so on.

Edit: A lovely, charming, warm fragrance with soft cherry and earthy notes. It's light and very pleasant, I do see the resemblance with the smell of a warm soil. As PacoGirl said it's great to be worn with other fragrances or alone. I spray this on my hair when wearing Lolita Lempicka and the result is heavenly.

Wow, such a wonderful scent !!! Yesterday I had the chance to smell it and I've loved it very much.
