Gritti Duchessa Extrait de Parfum -

I don't see the point of comparing this fragrance to anything else. It is exquisite. The cherry note is very vibrant and lingers for a very long time. And when I say very long, I mean verrrry long. Back in the spring of 2024, I sprayed this fragrance on my hand in a well-known retail store. Of course, it ended up on the sleeve of my jacket. So, in the autumn of 2024, I took out the jacket from the closet and the sleeve still smelled of this fragrance. For me, it was a sign that I had to buy it. And I did. I am very pleased that the fragrance turned out to be an original (the somewhat low price tag made me somewhat skeptical, but it was worth it). The scent smells so wonderful that I am ready to apply it through an oxygen mask. The longevity, I can't stress this enough, is exceptional (including the cherry note, which can be quite temperamental in perfumery and tends to disappear quickly from a composition). But I must warn you, there is also a hint of incense that can be overwhelming in closed spaces if you apply too much (: 1-2 sprays are more than enough. Even if you plan to wear the same clothing the next day, you don't need to reapply it - the sillage will last for another day or two).

I received the Lost Cherry Tom Ford, and they also showed me this one, which is similar. I fell in love and took it. As for Tom Ford, I will come back as they are not very similar to me. There are similar notes to Bacar. The cherry is slightly strict, almost not sweet, slightly smoky or alcoholic, and not salty. It reminded me of a dental office, which I don't like, but here it is appropriate, probably due to cloves and anise. It has a slightly bitter taste, suitable for evenings and autumn. I don't usually wear this type, I prefer more vanilla and heavy scents, but the composition is successful, so I will continue wearing it.

You will like it if you appreciate MFK BR540 and TF LOST CHERRY. I also liked Marc-Antoine Barrois Ganymede. Can you imagine what a blend it is? The fragrance is really similar to those perfumes, smoky and hookah-like, with excellent longevity. It should be worn in the evening. For those who enjoy the scents I described above, I recommend giving it a try. The impression will be pleasant.

This product has a pleasant cherry scent. The cherry is not overly sweet, sour, or artificial, but rather slightly dried. It may feel a bit overwhelming in a warm room.
Overall, it is a very good unisex fragrance that suits both men and women. It lasts for a long time, with a rating of 4+ out of 5 in terms of longevity. It is worth its price, as I purchased an 8 ml bottle and was very pleased with it. There were no chemical or iodine notes detected.

I am satisfied with the purchase.

In addition to my previous review, I would like to mention that after 2 weeks of use, a iodine note appeared in the scent, which is quite noticeable from the bottle, but less noticeable on the body. Only now I understand why some users compare it to copper.

I have a fragrance. The longevity is excellent, I sprayed it in the evening and I can still feel it on my hair in the morning. I apply it behind my neck, under my hair. There are not many scents that hold up so well on me. The cherry note is not like a fruity compote, it is more sophisticated and refined. I can barely detect the almond note, although I would prefer it to be stronger.

I applied 2 sprays in the morning and it lasted until evening. They are unbelievable! I have completely and irrevocably fallen in love. The first 2 hours on me, it's a bright, sweet cherry scent with hints of almond, iris, and a subtle clove aroma (but not irritating). Somewhere around the third hour, a masculine scent unfolds on me with a final cherry note. And as the evening approaches, the masculine scent becomes stronger and the cherry weaker. Now it's my favorite.

The fragrance is interesting and sensual, but unfortunately, it lacks longevity. It completely disappears after 2 hours, making it difficult to detect even on clothing by evening.
