Which Should You Buy?
Lost Cherry is a provocative cherry liqueur fantasy wrapped in almond and vanilla, decadent and utterly distinctive. Unapologetically sweet and boozy, it demands attention and invites indulgence.
Black cherry and bitter almond with a boozy liqueur lift, then rose, plum and a spiced vanilla base. A warm, layered cherry scent with real substance.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Lost Cherry's intense cherry sweetness and liqueur warmth shine best in cooler weather, making it ideal for fall and winter. Its density can feel cloying in heat but works for spring evenings.
Occasions
This is a statement scent for special nights out or formal settings where you want to leave a memorable impression. Best avoided in professional or athletic settings due to its bold projection and gourmand sweetness.
Seasons
Cherry liqueur, vanilla and cinnamon are warm and rich, so autumn and winter suit it best. The rose and plum keep it from feeling too heavy.
Occasions
A sweet-spiced, boozy profile made for evenings, dates and parties, with enough depth to dress up.
