Blossom Perfumery 516 Cherry Smoke is an Eau de Parfum. 516 Cherry Smoke opens with Sour Cherry and Saffron, settles into a heart of Olive, Leather, Osmanthus, and Apricot, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Smoke, and Woody. Blossom Perfumery's 516 Cherry Smoke carries an Acquired verdict, a cherry-led wear.

516 | Inspired by Cherry Smoke leans hard into Tom Ford's tart-cherry-and-leather signature, but the smoky woody base burns off quickly, leaving a simpler cherry-leather scent that skips the original's slow-building smokiness.

About

516 | Inspired by Cherry Smoke opens with an immediately recognisable tart cherry and saffron combination, sharp and a little sour in the best way, closely tracking the original's attention-grabbing top notes. The heart brings in leather, olive and Chinese osmanthus with a touch of apricot, giving a fruity-floral-leather blend that keeps the cherry from turning cloying. The base is where this dupe pulls back from Tom Ford's original: smoke, woody notes and cypriol oil are present but noticeably lighter, so the smouldering, smoky depth the real Cherry Smoke is famous for arrives more as a suggestion than a full statement. Longevity is moderate, with good projection in the first two hours before settling closer to the skin. A fun, characterful cherry fragrance for anyone wanting the flavour of Cherry Smoke on a night out without needing the full smoky intensity or the price tag.
