Parfums MDCI Peche Cardinal is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Amandine Clerc-Marie. Peche Cardinal opens with Peach, Blackcurrant, Blackberry, and Coconut, settles into a heart of Tuberose, Lily, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Parfums MDCI's Peche Cardinal carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A truly divisive modern classic: Peche Cardinal swings from glorious, juicy peach to synthetic bubblegum depending on who you ask (and to be fair, what kind of peach you are expecting). If you're after a luxurious, clean fruity floral, it might just be your new obsession. If not, best steer clear. The price point is another point of contention, so sample first.

While some find Peche Cardinal to have moderate projection, others note its "huge sillage" and "maddeningly powerful" longevity. It's a bit much for a formal office setting, but the elegant, creamy fruity-floral profile makes it ideal for dates and special occasions.

About

Dive into a plush, sweet swirl of peach and succulent blackcurrant, edged with the exotic creaminess of coconut. As the fruit mellows, a rich bouquet of heady lily and narcotic tuberose emerges, softened by the delicate sweetness of plum. The dry down settles into a warm, inviting embrace of musks, grounding sandalwood, and a whisper of cedar, leaving a lasting trail of sophisticated sweetness.
