“I wish I never smelled this and tested on my skin because now I'm in love....but I can't justify the price! I collect samples and decants to primarily experience different houses and see what the fuss is about popular scents.I love smokey perfumes, and this one is the most 'office' friendly I have tried. Starts off similar to lost cherry, but the dry down is where it shines.Lasted hours on my skin, and the dry down is a beautiful vanilla smoke. I am going to try to find a similar perfume for the dry down aspect. The cherry nite for me wasn't 'dark' enough.”
“It is a beautiful smell...for about 5 minutes. Then it quickly settles into a very nice woody, cherry-less scent that does not project much. In my opinion, it is not as good as Lost Cherry, and I believe both are way overpriced for their lackluster longevity. Vine in Estee Lauder...give us more longevity in your releases. We are paying top dollar for your frags. Eben Fume was astounding in every way. This release should have at least had similar projection and longevity. Happy with the fragrance but not satisfied. I expected more.”
“I liked lost cherry but was thinking it was not worth the price tag. I tested this one on my wrist and oh my god, what a nice smell. I am still thinking this is quite expensive but it is very tempting to purchase a full bottle. Tom Ford's private blends were a good introduction to the niche world. good quality, easily findable and price performance rate was on the sweet spot. But now, I think they are demanding much more money than it is worth. But I still want to buy this one full gorgeous bottle.”

Oud 24 Hours emphasizes oud as the central note while Tom Ford's Cherry Smoke maintains better cherry-smoke balance; the clone has stronger oriental DNA with reduced leather prominence. Longevity and sillage favor the clone, but the scent trajectory differs significantly from the original.

The clone delivers strong initial cherry-smoke appeal but lacks the deep leather and oud richness of the original in the base. Longevity is comparable, though the Tom Ford version projects with more authority and sophistication in later hours.
