Venom of Love Clones

"### Notes & Nuances Mayar Cherry Intense explodes with a sticky-sweet, candied cherry reminiscent of cherry-flavored lollipops. The initial blast has a boozy edge from the cognac note, though it reads more like generic liqueur than fine brandy. A faint, synthetic almond lurks beneath, adding a powdery bitterness. The heart transitions to a syrupy chocolate, thankfully restrained, blended with a whisper of candied rose. It diverges from its inspiration with a heavier emphasis on the cherry cordial aspect, losing some of the original's nuanced complexity. The drydown is a predictable amberwood bomb, amplified by a plasticky vanilla and persistent almond note which unfortunately clashes and creates a slightly acrid finish. ### The Verdict Wearing Mayar Cherry Intense offers a bold, uncomplicated sweetness. It captures the general vibe of the inspiration, but it sacrifices artistry for a more forceful, linear experience. What's gained is amplified sweetness and endurance; what's lost is the sophisticated blend and the realistic depth of the original's notes. It's like choosing a photograph of a memory instead of reliving it. ### How Long Does it Last? Longevity is impressive, easily lasting 8+ hours on skin. Projection is initially strong, filling a room within the first hour, then mellowing to about an arm's length for the next few hours. I tested this during a chilly evening walk, and the sweetness cut through the cold air nicely, though the synthetic edges became more pronounced."
