Seductive Red

I bought it on the hunt for a mystery cherry fragrance that I tested yet couldn't remember and it's not this one. That being said - this is starting to become my signature scent and I was not prepared for that. I don't even know how I would describe the scent, because to me - or on me - there is no cherry. Yes it's sweet, yes it's powdery, yes it's a bit floral while still having a little depth to it, but there isn't really a cherry - and yet, it's sexy. It's not a vixen perfume, it's not a dark, ripe, oozing cherry that tells stories of nighttime adventures. It's not giving sexy secretary, it's giving - cute business casual girl at the office front desk who just has that little something you can't fully explain. It's a flirty, professional little scent and I love it a lot. I don't know it's something I could wear during the summer though.

This is a feminine and sweet perfume, cheap in price and simple in its notes. The dry down and transition of this scent isn't too complex or outstanding with much of the fragrance remaining in its cherry and vanilla notes as time passes. The cherry note is quite sweet and almost smells like an artificial cherry scent, as if it were the olfactory embodiment of maraschino cherries. It smells somewhat cheap. I personally don't smell much of the supposed sandalwood or tonka bean anywhere on my skin. This perfume is a simple vanilla and cherry perfume, and that's that. I personally think that the marketing of this as "seductive" is erroneous as this seems to be more of an innocent and sweet perfume, not a fragrance I would think of wearing in order to seduce a man lol.

This is sooooo good for the price. Seriously! It’s not young smelling nor old. The cherry really stays. I wonder if it has to do with the added cherry blossom or if it’s the almond kind of carrying it along in the dry down. The florals are so appealing. Like I usually am turned away by the scent of florals but these are very nice and well balanced. I sprayed one spray on the back of my hand and it was there for many hours (6). With many hand washes. I wouldn’t call this weak at all. I bet it will be an eternity on clothes. Calling this a BR540 cherry version is not far off of the feel, but maybe only 30% BR and the rest unique or cherry. Even then it feels closer to cloud because of the fruitiness. Doesn’t have the burned sugar feel. More airy spun sugar.

Guess Seductive Red is fruity, sweet and delicious. The cherry, almond, pink pepper, violet, cherry blossom and magnolia smell absolutely divine in this fragrance. It has the perfect amount of fruitiness and it’s sooo mouthwatering juicy. I’m really loving the cherry almond combo especially. The vanilla, tonka bean and sandalwood in the dry down is doing its thing as well. This perfume reminds me a lot of Burberry Brit Red. I loved that fragrance. I really like Seductive Red but I wouldn’t say it’s a sexy fragrance, but it’s definitely a delicious one. Seductive Red has the perfect amount of fruity, floral and woody notes and it’s very affordable. It has great sillage and decent longevity and better suited for the summer.

I just don't understand when they say this perfume doesn't last at all. I have a collection of good perfume brands and even though this is one of the cheapest or even perhaps the cheapest, it is one of the ones that lasts the longest on my skin... I put it on in the morning and at night it still feels... I go to sleep and wake up with the smell. It just never goes away! And it projects really well for 1h, 1h30...not bad even for the price it has. I have wonderful perfumes in terms of smell and much more expensive ones that I would love for them to have the performance of this one.
