Single Malt Eau de Parfum vs Cherry Almond Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This one's a gem, a real shame it's discontinued. Single Malt delivers a plush, boozy plum experience that resonates with those who appreciate a sophisticated, warm scent, though some find its projection lacking. If you can hunt down a bottle, you're in for a treat; it's rightly earned its cult status.
Cherry and almond over tonka, Peru balsam and a coconut-and-sandalwood base. The most on-trend fragrance the brand makes, arriving several years after the trend it follows.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and rich, warm accords make it suitable for office wear if applied sparingly. The opulent, boozy nature leans heavily towards date nights and formal events, though it's still comforting for casual wear in cooler months. It's far too heavy and luxurious for athletic activities.
Seasons
Cherry, almond, benzoin and Peru balsam form a dense sweet resinous structure that turns syrupy in heat. Cold air is what keeps the gourmand accord appealing.
Occasions
Sweet and openly gourmand, it suits casual wear and dates rather than professional or formal settings. The small format keeps projection polite.
