Vicebomb Simone Andreoli 2023

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.
