About

Cherry Stain 02 opens with a rich, boozy cherry liqueur, quickly deepened by warm, spicy amber and balsamic resins. Incense weaves through, adding a subtle smoky edge without overpowering the syrupy fruit. There’s a waxy, almost candle-like quality that adds to its mature, sophisticated vibe, steering it far from a sweet, juvenile cherry.
