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.
A budget clone of Tom Ford's Lost Cherry - Fructus Virginis delivers the boozy black cherry and bitter almond opening well but its floral heart and woody base are simpler and less creamy than the niche original, running sweeter and slightly more one-dimensional.
