Japanese Cherry Blossom

My first fragrance review on Fragrantica! 🌸 🌸JAPANESE CHERRY BLOSSOM🌸 I got the entire set as a birthday gift after I finished my first bottle. It’s an incredibly lovely scent. Quite linear, no complex notes- but that’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes you just want to wear a simple fragrance that makes you feel good. This is definitely one of those scents for me for spring/summer. I layer it with the body lotion and the body mist so for me the longevity is very good. The sillage too. My mum noticed it the moment she entered my room and she was at least 7 feet away!! For me it always opens with the cherry blossom notes, very pretty and delicate. I smell the apple only in the dry down & I actually quite like it! I really hope TBS doesn’t discontinue it like it discontinued White Musk Libertine 💔 I think TBS’s Japanese Cherry Blossom a must have for anyone who likes fresh cherry blossom scents. It’s definitely a staple for me 💝 I’m not sure if I agree with the reviews calling it generic. I mean it’s a Japanese Cherry Blossom fragrance. Can’t really expect it to have sandalwood or chocolate notes in it, can we? TBS’s florals are not very complex fragrances. And that’s precisely what I love about them. One more thing— I got my first TBS Japanese Cherry Blossom body mist when I was at school. Around the same time I bought a Japanese Cherry Blossom body mist by Bath & Body Works. They’re NOT the same. B&BW’s rendition of Japanese Cherry Blossom is quite harsh on my nose for some reason. Whereas TBS’s Japanese Cherry Blossom is like a simple yet beautifully familiar melody. B&BW’s JCB smells like it’s been extracted from dried or drying flowers 😕 TBS’s JCB smells like it’s straight out of fresh cherry blossoms 🌸🥰

First; a quick review of what I remember: A soft floral fragrance with cherry blossom notes. Not too sweet and fruity, more aquatic and fresh. Now... ... Today was the third time I tested this one and it seems like I've begun to like it more since I didn't like it this much the first time. However, it's important to remember that this could be caused by anything and nothing... By this, I simply mean that it is possible to get tired of something, especially a scent, but I assume most people know these things. Anyway, I feel strongly for the Red musk and that's why I question myself; do I love/like this one as much as the other? Sometimes we like a certain thing, for example a fragrance, becauase of memories or because we associate it with specific personality traits that we have or with ourselves (we think that it fits us & is right for us). Sometimes we don't only go for the scent itself but for the thoughts and feelings it brings to us. What I'm trying to tell is that it's hard to compare the Red musk with this one partially since they're completly different and in some ways even opposite but also because I simply like them equaly but in different ways and for different reasons. My conclusion after this long review (which could be considered off topic, sorry for that #notsorry) is that I really enjoyed this fragrance even though it could fit better as someone else's signature scent. It's well-composed, sufficient and just as innocent and filled with pure beauty as it could be. Gorgeous.

i got gifted this when i was like 10 and it's nearly run out because we kept using it to cover the smell of our dog's poop whenever he went inside on rainy days. that being said, it's one of my favourite scents ever. it does spray a bit alcoholic and it smells almost offensive at the start but trust me it's such a breezy and sweet smell. i think it influenced my perception of other cherry blossom scents because i always end up unintentionally comparing them to this LOL

I bought the perfume oil which I find long lasting. Very fresh, the kind of delicate sweet fragrance that is tasteful, not at all a sickening kind of sweet. Been always looking for that right kind of sweet fragrance with right kind of sweetness and I think I ́ve finally found it.

Very fresh and soft, yet airy and light: perfect for hot summer days. It’s a shame that it doesn’t last very long, it's gone after 15-20 minutes on my skin.

I used to go crazy for this in middle school. Fresh, powdery, sweet but not sickly. It's a beauty scent and easily likable.

Love this scent...It is fruity with an aquatic twist which makes it very fresh, and not too sickly.

This used to be my favourite in med school. I dont know where did it go? Someone bring this back.

The perfect perfume to wear before going to bed, the soapy note helps me to relax and calm.

I was obsessed with this scent and the voyage perfume collection as a pre-teen. I think the packaging, bottle and name is what really won me over. Weirdly I received Jimmy Choo Blossom at a later age and its very similar so could be a good dupe. Its very fitting for the age range I was when I wanted it around 10 - 12 because it smells sweet and very young, there is nothing over complicated about this scent it is simply a summer spray which smells sweet and floral. Similar to other body sprays and perfumes I was interested in at the time you spray it then it disappears a few minutes later but it definitely gives a little serotonin booster as you spray. Makes me think of going to the fair with my friends, eating cotton candy and having fun during the summer.

I like this fragrance. It's light, clean and feminine. I mostly detect a green, woody scent which I believe is the Hanoki Wood and the scent of Magnolia. The Cherry Blossom scent is present but it is not that strong. It disappointed me a little that the Cherry Blossom scent is not that strong. The perfume lasts for over an hour or so on my skin. On clothing, for about 4 hours. Due to its short duration, I don't wear it when going out. The scent is calming and energizing. I like to spray this on myself just to feel better. It's almost like aromatherapy. I do like the scent but the short duration disappoints me.

I really like this EDT, my favorite from the 'Scents of the World' line...fresh and sweet, floral-fruity scent of cherry blossoms...great for everyday casual wear. Try this scent if you prefer tart, fresh cherries over the maraschino sort. Lasts around 3-4 hours on my skin. I tried the perfume oil as well and it's like the edt, no difference in scent, but longer lasting (softer sillage though). P.S. Dear admins, please change the pictures for TBS 'scents of the world' fragrance pages on this site into each of their respective fragrance bottles. Thank you :)

A sweet fragrance but as others pointed out, not as sweet as you might be worried it would be. I get lot of violets and maybe even lilacs from this one. The longevity is not great and the silage is also not the greatest but personally I am not unhappy about this as I think if it was stronger I would find the perfume too sickly and overwhelming, and just not 'me'. Like this I can use a tiny spritz on the go (as I own the miniature perfume spray bottle) and I know nobody standing next to me will pass out because of it.

I used to have the Japanese cherry blossom fragrance mist in uni and bought this version on a fluke as it was on offer on TBS. It is a stunning, comforting woody floral perfume. The hinoki wood adds a much needed dimension to this perfume. All in all, an absolute love for me ❤️ Reminds me of walking through a Japanese garden, wish it had more apples in there! Definitely a spring and autumn perfume. I can see myself reaching for this perfume in the autumn 😍 For the colder months, it would be very light and calming.

the first time I smelled this fragrance I totally fell in love with it, and I bought it together with the shower gel, I used it practically every day in summer, until its smell saturated me. I don't know if it will be the change of weather, since in my country it is winter or what, but I am resting for a while from this. the fragrance itself seems very fresh, feminine, soft, it is not sweet but it has something that adds a little sweetness. my sense of smell is very sensitive, maybe I use it too much.

I just received a package of this from my aunt on my birthday. I was not very excited at first because I didn't like the previous Japanese Cherry Blossom fragrance from TBS. But this is different. It reminds me of the L'occitane Cherry Blossom that I really like. This one is softer and fresher, a little sweet (but non offensive) it's subtle and delicate. Nice smell for everyday and the bottle isn't very big so you can freshen up after a while as this is not very long lasting. I like it.

I shoulda bought this years ago. Instead I got the Atlas mountain rose and the Amazonian wild lily, both of which I hardly ever use. For some reason I haven't wanted to splurge on the Japanese Cherry blossom, even though I've wanted it for a long time. Go figure! But now at last I have it, in oil format (edt was sold out. It appears they are changing the packaging of their fumes and selling out the old ones). This is nice! Good for office, inoffensive, sweet, lovely.

Finally finished my little 10ml travel spray this morning. This is a very uncharacteristic scent for me, but it's surprisingly ideal for hot days when the citrus freshies just disappear. It actually has a little "bite" to it in a very good way. Of course it still doesn't last very well all things considered, but it's a very unoffensive scent. I won't repurchase since there are a ton of other similar scents to try.

I recently bought this fragrance. I know this perfume is for spring/summer. But I don't care. I can use any perfume anytime :D. My first impression is that I really liked this fragrance. It is slightly sweet bu like a creamy way. I hate sweet/sugary fragrances so don't be afraid, this is not one of them. Also I think this perfume is for teens and early 20's. It doesn't have the weight of an adult and elder.

I received this a few years ago as a gift, and recently rediscovered it. It's a nice fresh cherry blossom scent. The opening was particularly alcohol-heavy and a little sharp, but it becomes softer as it dries down and the alcohol smell dissipates. A bit woody in the dry down, but mostly a linear fresh floral. Longevity is light-to-moderate. I was happy with the fragrance but don't plan to repurchase it.
