Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

516 scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Cherry Smoke.

Blossom Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Cherry Smoke's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $34 per 100ml it costs 96% less than Cherry Smoke — the 4th cheapest of 13 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Blossom Perfumery publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

Tom Ford Cherry Smoke is cherry, saffron and pink pepper at first, rose, incense and birch at its heart and leather, woody notes and amber at the end. Blossom Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Dark cherry wreathed in smoke, leather and incense; a moody, sophisticated fruit-gone-noir.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
