Whilst Ingrid was getting pampered at the hair salon, I decided to pop in-store at Fenwick’s, London, to explore the tempting collection of Tom Ford cherry fragrances.
For testing, I managed to get my hands on all three of the delicious Tom Ford cherry-themed masterpieces: Lost Cherry, Cherry Smoke, and Electric Cherry.
Although these unisex perfumes have cherry as the main note, each retains a unique personality, ranging from alluringly bitter to seductively smoky or musky.
Best Tom Ford Cherry Fragrances
Whether it’s Lost Cherry, Cherry Smoke, or Electric Cherry, here is my take on the best Tom Ford cherry fragrances to get you noticed.
1. Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum
Review
Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum is an intoxicating blend of bitter almond, cherry and vanilla, offering a luxurious, decadent, fruity experience. Launched in 2018.
A rich burst of black cherry and bitter almond unfolds into a sweet melody of cherry syrup, rose, and jasmine, balancing the initial boldness.
As this scent settles, vanilla aromas from tonka bean become more present, with delicate woody notes grounding the fragrance in a soothing embrace.
Top Notes:
Black Cherry, Cherry Liqueur, Bitter Almond
Mid Notes:
Griotte Syrup, Turkish Rose, Jasmine Sambac
Base Notes:
Peru Balsam, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood, Vetiver, Cedar
Seasons & Longevity
I find Lost Cherry a perfect companion for any season. It’s a scent that resonates with intimate gatherings or a night out in the city.
It lasts 4+ hours, creating a personal scent bubble that’s noticeable but not overwhelming.
Benefits & Drawbacks
| Pros | A versatile and complex cherry fragrance |
| Cons | Not long lasting considering the price |
2. Cherry Smoke Eau de Parfum
Review
Cherry Smoke Eau de Parfum is a bold, darker cherry fragrance from Tom Ford, offering a unique detour from the traditional that will turn heads. Launched in 2022.
A mysterious opening of dark cherry and saffron is lifted by a heart of fragrant osmanthus, with its soft leather and apricot-like sweetness.
Upon dry-down, a finale of smoked wood accord gives it a captivating, almost mystical depth and sets a seductive tone.
Top Notes:
Dark Cherry, Saffron
Mid Notes:
Osmanthus
Base Notes:
Smoked Wood Accord
Seasons & Longevity
With its smoky seductiveness, Cherry Smoke is ideal for autumn and winter nights for special events or romantic dinners.
Lasting 6+ hours, it’s a scent that makes its presence known, lasting throughout the night, casting a memorable trail.
Benefits & Drawbacks
| Pros | A seductive cherry scent that will get you noticed |
| Cons | The smokiness may not suit everyone |
3. Electric Cherry Eau de Parfum
Review
Launched in 2023, Electric Cherry Eau de Parfum captures the essence of cherry in a fresh yet seductive way.
This scent opens with a gourmand burst of morello cherry and ginger, sparking my immediate interest. Hints of jasmine also delight.
The base of musky ambrettolide provides a sensual finish. My top tip: allow this fragrance 20 minutes to fully reveal itself.
Top Notes:
Morello Cherry, Ginger
Mid Notes:
Jasmine Sambac
Base Notes:
Ambrettolide (Musk)
Seasons & Longevity
Electric Cherry is more of a daytime scent for spring, summer and fall. Running errands, shopping trips, lunches with friends, city walks.
It’s a fragrance that feels personal and intimate, accompanying you throughout the day without overpowering. Lasts 5+ hours.
Benefits & Drawbacks
| Pros | A versatile daytime cherry scent that smells expensive |
| Cons | Not a powerhouse for projection |
