   Notes from Fragrantica:
   Top notes: black cherry, cherry liquer, bitter almonds
   Heart notes: Griotte syrup, Turkish rose, jasmine Sambac
   Base notes: Peru balm, roasted tonka beans, sandalwood, vetiver, cedar

   The opening is pure tart black cherry mixed with sweet cherry liqueur. There is no medicinal note, nothing that smells like cough syrup here, just pure intoxicating cherry goodness. That blast only lasts about 10 minutes, sadly, before it moves into the next phase of delightfulness. The tonka and almond blend together to give it a nutty, slightly powdery aroma —still with a hint of very juicy cherry. The drydown gives the impression of cherry pipe tobacco, a very close cousin to tobacco vanille but with a cherry twist. I believe the balsam, vetiver, sandalwood combo is what is giving the pipe tobacco feel, but it’s so well done that you can’t pull out individual notes at this point. This is very longlasting, but not a loud fragrance–it does sit close to the body, but I find when I wear it I can’t stop sniffing myself. This was a blind buy for me, and well worth every penny. Again, Tom Ford has not disappointed.
