Tom Ford Lost Cherry. I got a sample to see what all the fuss is about, but for me it's doing nothing special.
That's how I feel about most Tom Fords, the Private Blends in particular. Wonderfully marketed, but totally average and extremely overpriced.
And the names are getting stupider and stupider. The newest one: Rose Prick. He may as well just start naming his fragrances "Tom Ford Look at How Cool I Am--Right? RIGHT??"
I don't know why anyone throws away their money on his crap.
I'm new to fragrance so I was really curious about Tom Fords since it's mentioned so much. And I admit, I particularly couldn't resist Lost Cherry, I mean that is the most ridiculously expensive perfume ever right? And here I can't even pull a trigger on an LV perfume because I've never spent so much money on perfumes before. But yeah, I did not get why Lost Cherry deserved such a special pricing point
Today I'm trying LV Attrape Reves. I didn't like it much when I first tried and couldn't understand why it was so popular, but it sure is growing on me.
Actually, not really.
It's definitely expensive for what it is, but it's still very much in the shallow end of the pool when it comes to expensive perfumes.
Haha ok. I am just graduating from $100 a bottle perfumes (mostly bought half price with employee discounts too) so I was already balking at paying $250 for LV one I liked, so Lost Cherry seems so crazy to me. I was kind of glad I didn't love it!
To give you an idea, here is The Night from Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle:
Lost Cherry 50ml = $320.
The Night 50ml = $960.
And by no means is The Night the most expensive perfume out there or the only perfume in that price range.
It is definitely nice when an expensive perfume is underwhelming! I definitely wish I were underwhelmed by The Night. Instead, I'll just have to restrain myself. For now.
