Another unimpressive cherry blossom

Well, maybe this doesn't smell exactly the same as Escada Cherry in the Air from 2013 or Britney Spears Fantasy in Bloom, but it gives me the exact same vibe. From what I remember, it might be a tad fresher than Cherry in the Air though. Cherry in Japan starts out quite shampoo-ish with clean florals and an unlisted green note. But the cherry and cherry blossom quickly kick in and become the central notes. Later the tonka bean shows up, and really, they could have called it a marshmallow note, just like in Cherry in the Air. It smells sweet, fluffy and kind of dense and powdery, just like a marshmallow. The spicier facets of tonka are not showcased at all here.

I find this okay, but a little boring and weak. To me, Escada summer editions are at their best when they smell like a tropical fruit cocktail. Everytime they go for something more floral, I'm not impressed.
It's a harmless spring scent, nothing more, nothing less.
