I’d been hunting for a holiday scent that doesn’t scream gingerbread, and the black cherry here is just dark and jammy enough without going sweet. The Japanese plum comes through on the dry-down, and it lasts a solid six hours on my coat.

The dry-down is where this really shines—that sandalwood softens the dark fruit into something warm and cozy without losing the edge. I sprayed it on a scarf three days ago and can still catch the cassis and plum when I walk by.

The black cherry and plum come through rich and jammy at first, then that sandalwood settles it into something warm and almost mysterious. It's dark without being heavy, and I keep catching whiffs of it on my scarf hours later. Perfect for holiday evenings.
