Childhood memory unlocked
I never write reviews, but this one deserves an exception.
This is not your regular cherry perfume, it’s this beautiful amarena cherry with a hint of rose, rose is normally not my thing but it makes this perfume soooo sexy. Ofcourse in combination with all the other notes.
One of my best blind buys.
It reminds me of my youth in Italy where all the children would always fight for the amarena flavored popsicle, which ofcourse.. was also my fave!

Sensual cherry seduction
What a fragrance! A real surprise for me, as I tend to be less comfortable with fruity fragrances, but I really wanted to find a cherry scent that wasn't too marzipan-y, too synthetic or too sweet.
My sample arrived and it was love at first sniff.

The fragrance starts off slightly cherry liqueur-like, which very quickly develops into a lovely little cherry fruit tartness that makes my mouth water and won't let me get off my wrist.
This cheeky cherry is embedded in a great caramelly sweetness that reminded me of the caramel in Rendez-vous à Milan. However, the sweetness is not sticky, but warming and sensual.
As the fragrance progresses, it becomes a little softer and more cuddly, but not clearly perceptible to me or those around me.
The cheeky fruitiness recedes somewhat and merges with the warm, dark sweetness to form an embrace that has an almost erotic aura.

The fragrance lasts on my skin for about 8-10 hours, the projection becomes a little less after about 4 hours. I can imagine it more in the cooler months, but will also do a summer date night test when it's warmer again.

I see the fragrance more on a woman. A seductive, self-confident, strong woman who knows what she wants.

A clear candidate for purchase, a very unusual fragrance with a high recognition value, which will probably soon have a permanent place in my collection.

Thanks for reading! To all femme fatales: get this fragrance. Even though it's completely different, it gives me the same sexiness as Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette or Dior Addict (2014) Eau de Parfum, just with this cheeky cherry.

Beautiful cherry gourmand
Of course, this Simone Andreoli Vicebomb also deserves a review. Even if it's not your main summer outfit at the moment, this Vicebomb is definitely worth a look. In addition, you can always wear it on mild days and in the evening. I've wanted this one for a long time, but it was often sold out, especially in stores where there is a discount. This spring it worked out and I found it for a fair price. It's around 150€ per 100ml, a little less with a discount. This brand already offers a great price-performance ratio. Alongside Malibù - Party in the Bay, Leisure in Paradise and Ocean of a Midnight Moon, this is my 4th fragrance from this brand, and I can recommend all the fragrances I have tested from this brand so far.

Lost Cherry has already triggered a little cherry hype in the perfume community. The price is of course off-putting, especially if you're not in the niche world. This offers the opportunity for others in this sector to take off and create a little hype. Even if it is much more gourmand and not so purely fruity, this fragrance has made it. It is often sold out, similar to Malibù - Party in the Bay. The two cash cows of this brand are rightly selling so well because they simply have a pleasing vibe that resonates with the masses. Both are nothing really new, but you get high-quality fragrances for your money.
Anyone looking for a fragrance like Lost Cherry will be disappointed. This one is much more gourmand. Smells like a dessert. In addition to the Amarena cherry, the vanilla cream is very present. Smells like a great vanilla topping on this great cherry. Rose is also noticeable, which gives this a little intense cafe vibe. Sugar, caramel and tonka bean give this fragrance a full load of sweetness and creaminess. The base adds some light woods and a little amber. All in all, a great creation that is exclusively for gourmand fans. The star of the creation is clearly the cherry with the vanilla cream. Very pleasing and hard not to like. Whether you want to smell like this is up to you. I like this creation. It's sure to come in handy when the temperatures drop again and you can dig out cozy fragrances. DNA is safe and not very risky. Unisex is also absolutely right, as Gourmands can be worn by everyone Performance is top like all of this brand. Hlatability is in double digits, sillage is enormous in the first few hours. Top for outdoor, indoor in small rooms do not overspray. A great overall package at a great price.

In conclusion: A great gourmand for fans of sweet fragrances. A sure blind buy if you like cherry-vanilla and rose.

Vicebomb: the sweet cherry bomb with an ingenious price-performance ratio!
The Vicebomb was very much hyped; it is said to be one of the best cherry fragrances with an ingenious P/L ratio. Well - as a blind buyer, I was initially cautious and held back. I've owned the Vicebomb for a few days now and have to say that the fragrance has surprised me extremely positively.

Why? I have tried a few cherry fragrances in the meantime and yes, somehow every fragrance had its problems. The Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum is known to be expensive and not performant, the Wet Cherry Liquor is far better than the Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum but the scent was a bit too alcoholic for me personally, and yes, the performance wasn't exactly top-notch either, even if it was better than the Tom Ford. The Cherry Ink was okay, but the cherry wasn't super realistic and the ink in it was a bit special. The Vicebomb convinced me all the more and what's still on my to-do list is the Duchessa.

But now to the actual topic of the article, the Vicebomb :

- The fragrance starts with a beautiful Amarena cherry, which may smell a little medicinal to some because of the sweetness and probably the combination of salted caramel. I think the opening is great, very cherry and sweet!

- In the drydown, the fragrance gets better and better and gets a bit of rose, vanilla, ylang ylang and then goes down into a creamy-vanilla base, which is underpinned by amber and carried by slightly woody accords. This extreme sweetness at the beginning is balanced out a little and develops better and better in the DD.

- In my opinion, the opening is more feminine, but the fragrance then becomes more and more unisex thanks to the dry-down!

- The performance is definitely good; in the upper third. Longevity is good, as is the projection in the first few hours! For the price, you really can't expect more!
Overall, I have to say that with the Vicebomb we got a top cherry fragrance that you should definitely try.

Amarena cherry mug
Amarena cherry and vanilla, that's all the fragrance smells like.
But it doesn't need anything else either.

The scent makes me think of my childhood and our visits to the ice cream parlor with the family on a hot summer evening.

My mother always ordered a cup of Amarena cherries when we visited our favorite ice cream parlor together and of course I was lucky enough to get some of the delicious cherries Yes, that's what the treat reminds me of.
Maybe that's why I like the smell so much!
And, even though it's with strawberry sauce, Vicebomb makes me think of spaghetti ice cream - probably because it's an ice cream parlor and all :D -, so it also reminds me of one of my former favourite shisha tobaccos, which smelled just like spaghetti ice cream.
Moving on from childhood to the scent:

I could fall in love with cherry fragrances and have to test every fragrance where I read something with cherry in the fragrance pyramid, so of course I couldn't get past Vicebomb.
Here, however, it is - somewhat differently to most other cherries I know - more covered, not quite as in-your-face. But of course, it's not a true cherry, but "only" the sweet Amarena cherry :))

When I smelled the fragrance for the first time, I was almost a little disappointed because, as you can imagine, I like to have the full cherry load :D.

Which is also more than positive for me:
I smell absolutely no rose (I don't like rose in fragrances at all).
If anyone is looking for a cherry vanilla scent where the cherry isn't quite as loud as we're used to, this one is worth a sniff :)

Smells exactly like cherry halls or cough syrup to me. The cherry is very synthetic and is very sweet with a medicinal undertone. Not a fan

Ripe amarena cherries. More of a cherry syrup than a cherry liquor that is just sweet enough. I prefer Cherry Ink as it has a bit more depth

I loved this one and am tempted to buy a full bottle now that my sample is out. One of the best cherry perfumes I've used.
