sophisticated warm blanket with a great cherry opening
Opens with a yummie cherry almond booziness.
And slowy evolves into a warm amber, tobacco, vanilla and tonka cloud.
Long lasting, can't stop sniffing my arms, sophisticated fragrance.

I don't think it's as similar as lost Cherry because that opening has a more bright cherry opening )that fades fast). and Bodacious lasts a loooong time. I think it's meium projection, but that's what I like. I don't want people to smell my perfume from the other sie of the room.
I do think that if you want the bright cherry/berry to last longer then Memories by The gate would be a great option for you.

This is not a bright , sweet cherry bomb. Not juvenile.

Such a pleasant suprise in dry down

I blind bought this fragrance as soon as it came out. I mean...Hazelnut heaven.. what is not to love right?
And I do like gourmands, but not if they are too literal or linear.
I haven’t done a full day wear test yet as it's summer here and this to me is a cold weather fragrance.

My first impression after wearing it is that at first blast it leans masculine. BUT It gets much more unisex in dry down (within 15 minutes). I guess that’s due to the thyme … it’s not a medicinal opening but it has a bit of a herbal bite.

In dry down it gets really warm and cozy. The hazelnut really comes through and it makes it a bit creamy nutty but it’s not lactonic. Together with the amber, vanilla an tonka I just didn't want to stop smelling my wrists.

I think this would work great for colder fall weather.
It’s a strong fragrance… To me it has some similarity to Side effect by Initio.. not a dupe... But that intensity has the same vibe in the dry down.

I definitely like it… but I would not describe it as a gourmand-gourmand (as I had expected it to be).
