Guerlain Cherry Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Delphine Jelk. Cherry Oud opens with Cherry, and settles into a heart of Fruity and Rose. Guerlain's Cherry Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a oud-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Don't go expecting a straightforward cherry bonbon; this is a moody, bold beast where the leather and oud often steal the show. Not for the faint of heart, but addictive for those who click with its dark charm.

Given its nuclear performance and strong sillage, Cherry Oud is far too overpowering for an office environment. Its complex, dark profile with oud and leather makes it perfect for formal events or intimate dates, especially in cooler weather, where its depth can be appreciated.

About

Guerlain's Cherry Oud opens with a fleeting, medicinal burst of dark cherry and mixed fruits, quickly giving way to a prominent, intense oud that some find smooth and others, challenging. As it dries, a rich, animalic leather accord takes centre stage, mingling with a subtle, powdery rose and a hint of smoky depth. The cherry often recedes, leaving a complex, grown-up blend that evokes luxury and mystery.
