I love the cherry and cedar combo in this! I can be pretty picky with fruit scents in fragrance, since they often smell more like fruit candy than true fruit to me, but the cherry here is just lovely. I read an offsite review from someone who mentioned this scent is a great one for lovers of Dusk Cherry Puff who are into the idea of a cherry with a little less sugar, and having tried this now I very much agree :-) Rosy Maple Moth is noticeably different on me depending on whether I apply to my skin or clothes, but I really enjoy both varieties. When sprayed on my arms, the wood is much more noticeable. On my clothes, the wood isn't as strong and the fairy floss is more prominent, so it's slightly sweeter and airier. Fun to smell either way!
I love this! It's fruity, citrusy, and makes me feel the excitement and innocence of being a preteen again. I could have sworn there was patchouli in this, but nope, not in the scent list. There's something beneath all that bright fruit that's a little woody and earthy, and my nose keeps reading it as patchouli. The phantom patch, a shadow of darkness underneath, feels like those first attempts at youthful rebellion. Whatever is creating that effect gives the playful sweetness a deeper foundation and keeps it interesting. This one was an easy full size for me.
thank you for the review! i'm definitely known for sneaking patchouli into things, but not this one! the woody note you're picking up on is virginia cedarwood, but there's some science behind why your nose is reading the cedar as patchouli. the predominant aromatic molecule in cedar, cedrol, is structurally very similar to the patchoulol in patchouli. they also share some other molecules in varying amounts, like thujopsene (stronger in cedar), alpha-guaiene (stronger in patchouli), and beta-caryophyllene (stronger in patchouli and also present in clove).
