What wearers say
“I spent a week with this fragrance, and I like it so far. The notes open with cherry, then you get the congac notes, then after 2 hours it gets kind of grandma-esque. It’s definitely for the evening time, fall and winter. The black pepper is no where to be found in the dry down, and even after a full day. Its a pretty safe blind buy. It is feminine leaning as well.”
“I do not understand the immediate hate for this fragrance in some of these reviews. This is like a cross between Cherry Punk and French Defense. Leather and cherry go very well together and this perfume has some leather smelling nuances even though it is not listed in the ingredients. It smells expensive, well blended, and niche. Projection and longevity are average. It smells different than other Lataffa scents and that is a good thing one would think. Some people apparently want redundancy.”
“I don't have the orignal... But if u were to go to the originals mind games fragrance review section... It reads like how this smells... Its a good cherry fragrance and Iam a big fan of cherry smoke by Tom Ford.... Dark cherry at the top..then all the other notes give it a smooth boozy cheery feel very sexy...... I sorta get the scent of lipstick but it all ties in together well...”
