Cherry Musk

Reading these negative reviews - I'm confused. I suppose taste in fragrances is subjective, but I love this so much. Yes, I was expecting a dark cherry musky sexy bomb, but that is not what this fragrance is. If that's what you're looking for, look elsewhere. This is light and ever so slightly sweet. A beautiful mixture of fruits and flowers on the softest airy musky base. It's a fragrance to wear when you need to lift your spirits, it floats on the air around you like a good mood. It is, in my opinion, very feminine and flirty, but sexy? I'm not sure. I don't always want to smell sexy - sometimes I just want to smell like a girl (although I am many years away from those days). This is a scent to wear with a pretty dress, strappy sandals, a beautiful floppy hat, and go skipping in the breeze - think Amal Cloony in something floaty with a big smile on her face. A niche fragrance of this caliber should never be bought blind. If I had bought it based on the name, the notes, and the reviews, I would have been devastated. As I didn't, I am absolutely thrilled with this feminine and oh so floaty fragrance. Springtime, flowered dresses, and big floppy hats in a bottle. This bottle was gifted to me by just such a woman - a feminine woman - and I am so grateful. I will wear this and smile and think of her as I so often do.

Perfection. Subtle, pure, giddy perfection. It's rare to fine a scent so charming. On me, this is a very intimate scent. It stays close, and thought the 'throw' it projects feels airy & slight, I'd say it's more tasteful. It is definitely present, and for a long time, just not in a brazen sence... It is pure grace. There is a delightful sense of effervescents with Cherry Musk. The musk is certainly what grounds the scent in reality and sophistication, but the Cherry is a light, playful one. It makes me feel 'sparkly' - it's the adult equivalent of taking your first sip of a Shirley Temple and tasting that sweet, luxuriant (as a child) grendadine. This is, of course, a much more refined experience, but that doesn't mean it's any less fun! ***Swoon!***

I was lucky to acquire a small sample of this scent last year. I was prepared not to like it, or get a headache, because it has musk in the name, and usually those frags give me a migraine. However, it's much lighter than I expected, not a sillage monster, and actually sort of a "something different" for Spring. The people who compared the scent to a cocktail are correct, but the musk counteracts any extreme sweetness, giving it an "edge". Too bad this is such an expensive scent (overpriced if you ask me, given the weak sillage), because it's an unexpected delight! Perfect for men or women.

Unique. Sits close to the skin. Fresh, airy musky quality with tones of tart berry overall that are only initially Zingy and instantly distinguishable as some sort of berry or 'cherry'. Starts strong but quickly blends quickly and softly into an airy musk. There is a sweetness that after several minutes turns into something well blended and Not cloying or migraine inducing. If you like: fresh, musk, fruity accord with a pinch of sweetness..something with good sillage but doesnt project too loud off your skin then try this. Longevity is good, Sillage is decent as well but projection is poor.

Cherry musk feels like a frozen berry, slightly tart and sweet. It's a playful fragrance, the opening and the first minutes is a duet of cherry and musk, but very fresh and airy. I'm surprised, because most cherry scents are utterly sweet and artificial. But this one manages to escape that cliché. It screams spring, youth and innocence. Although it is marked as unisex, I consider Cherry Musk more on the feminine side. I'm a guy, and I really want to try it to see the reaction of people.
