Fresh and well-balanced cherry
I love this. I have rouge smoking so I assumed something like this would be redundant in the cherry/almond category but they're absolutely nothing alike. If rouge smoking is a rich dessert, Q intense is like a fizzy, slightly tart drink.

To me it's nothing like lost cherry either, which I have a decant of. There's nothing at all cough syrup-y or boozy about this one. Similar notes but a completely different experience. It's light and fresh and uplifting, while being totally different from your usual citrus bomb or marine freshie. There's definitely citrus in this but it blends in well and emphasises the tartness of the cherry rather than sticking out or being a focal point. The amber grounds it well without making it too heavy or dark. Sweet but far from cloying, and it's doing great so far in the summer heat.

I find the projection and longevity to be pretty good, I can smell it on myself for a few hours wafting in the air before it becomes a skin scent, and it lasts as a skin scent for at least a few hours more. Perhaps not as good as you would hope for something labelled "intense" but not as bad as some reviews would have you believe. I would also class this as solidly unisex, despite its marketing.

Easy to wear cherry, versatile dark fruity floral amber.
Opens with a fresh yet smooth floral citrus of lemon and mandarin, and then a really beautiful, juicy cherry note arrives at my nose and delights my brain. It’s a little shampooey, in a good way - bright and fresh like a cherry yoghurt. But that soon changes as it settles into the heart.

Here, the soft florals come through a little more but well blended amongst the other notes. There’s a subtle woody amber pulling from the base that adds a warm, soft femininity to the scent profile without losing its freshness.

The heliotrope comes through to my nose in the dry down and it’s perfectly utilised here, not overpowering. It’s adds a sweet fluffy vanilla floral to the base, slightly powdery, that draws on the cherry scent with a tiny hint of creamy marzipan but doesn’t lean into dominant bitter almond or medicinal territory.

This a very easy to wear cherry. It’s more of a velvety fruity floral than gourmand. I would definitely recommend it for those that like the smell of cherries but find cherry forward and almond accords too much on their skin.

As a seasonal wearer, I thought this would’ve been a wintery perfume because of the dark cherry note, but I think it’s a very versatile fragrance that can be worn anytime of the year.

Initially, I would’ve liked the cherry note in the opening to hang around a bit more, but on reflection as I’m enjoying the scent bubble of the dry down, that’s what makes this a beautiful perfume. Rather than smelling like a cherry forward body shop product, Q is a delicate blended aroma in its own right.

It’s nothing ground breaking, but it’s an extremely pleasing velvety, cherry fruity floral with a sensual yet soft and clean amber, that’s suitable for everyday wear.

I like it a lot and I’m looking forward to wearing it some more.

Sweet and cherry
A fresh, crisp citrus opening beautifully blended with cherry notes. The latter remain present throughout, gradually wrapped in calm, sweeter base notes. The sillage is initially moderate but settles quite quickly to an intimate closeness on the skin, while the longevity is excellent. The composition envelops with a subtle, pleasant veil for several hours, and with one reapplication, lasts all day.

The More Beautiful Lost Cherry
One makes comparisons, perhaps not always good ones, but since LC is my great love that could use a bit more sweetness and lean more towards gourmand, I treated myself to some cherry novelties (luckily there are quite a few coming out right now).

I had my eye on this one very strongly as I found the EDP very beautiful, but the citrus note was absolutely not for me.

I sprayed it and immediately thought of LC; the cherry is there right away, dark and really beautifully sweet.
For a brief moment, even though it’s not listed, something citrusy comes through... I start to get worried... something like those sweet jelly oranges with sugar on the outside but a bit more bitter, like blood orange.....
As quickly as it appears, it’s gone again... phew, dodged a bullet...

Then it simply becomes beautifully sweet & intense like Amarena cherry syrup, thick and sticky (but wow, I’m totally into it) a lovely creamy marzipan note comes in quite quickly, and amber adds a dollop of vanilla cream on top... Wow, I can’t stay objective, because where LC was too unisex & liqueur-like for me, here I get my sugary Amarena cup that makes my mouth water....

Goodbye Lost Cherry... I am where I wanted to be....

Beautiful Cherry with a Touch of Lemon
The fruity light cherry scent is truly well done by Dolce Gabbana. The perfect everyday summer fragrance for me. The cherry is prominent, and when accompanied by a citrus note, the fragrance feels much lighter and more refreshing.

The best sweet choice for summer, without feeling too sweet and sticky through the scent.

It mells like a really good cherry cocktail I had once. So tasty, a bit sweet, a bit sexy. I bought it without really even thinking about it

Really lovely scent for fans of fruity-sweet cherries. Not too sweet-sticky, not too heavy. Plus fresh flowers. Pleasant.

No difference from the regular Q. The perfume color is a bit darker, but that's it. Citrusy floral with a warm note.
