Sweet, spicy cherry, restrained relative to some of its predecessors
Vivamor Parfums Cherry Prive is a sweet, smooth, spicy blend featuring cherry, almond, cinnamon, and tonka. Contrasting Venom of Love from the sibling company, Navitus Parfums, the fragrance of which is a bit sharper and more resinous, Cherry Prive is smoother and more easygoing, perhaps a welcome alternative to those who find Tom Ford Lost Cherry and the like to be a bit too overwhelming. Cherry Prive still smells very sophisticated, though, and does not veer into synthetic territory, which is one of my (minor, given the price) criticisms of Banana Republic Dark Cherry & Amber, which felt, for me, more appropriate as a soap or body product than perfume.
Cherry is a really fun note when used effectively, and Cherry Prive does a very good job. As Lost Cherry (and similarish concoctions like Venom of Love) were created first, I wouldn’t say that Cherry Prive is superior or even quite equal, but I think it’s going to prove more accessible to many given that it does not have the biting aspects—clary sage, sour cherry, etc. For me, it’s an easy love and one of my two favorites of the line (so far) with Addiction Absolu.
Like the rest of the line, Cherry Prive is priced at $155 for 100ml in extrait concentration—very reasonable, in my opinion—and is sold via the house website as well as Perfumology, and it performs quite well.
