Tom Ford Lost Cherry

Lost Cherry is exactly what it sounds like — a bold, boozy black cherry soaked in almond and cherry liqueur, softened by Turkish rose and jasmine before landing on a warm bed of roasted tonka and sandalwood. It's unapologetically sweet and seductive, the kind of scent that turns heads in a dimly lit room rather than a boardroom. Community consensus suggests it's a crowd-pleaser that leans more mainstream than niche, which may disappoint those expecting something more complex for the price point, reflected in its modest 4.3 rating. With moderate-to-strong sillage and solid longevity of six to eight hours, it performs well enough for an evening out — wear it during cooler Highveld winters or Cape Town autumn nights when that gourmand richness really comes into its own. If you find it a touch one-dimensional on its own, try layering it over a woody oud or a vetiver-forward base to add some much-needed depth.
