Exactly like biting into Queen Anne's cordial cherries!
Opening: waxy chocolate. It's not a deep or fudge-y chocolate, just like the Queen Anne's Cordial Cherries aren't either. It's the waxy candy-making chocolate discs you can buy at a craft store for melting your own candies, which cool down hard and snap when you bite into them.
Then very quickly, you're hit with cherry liqueur syrup, just like the center of the cordial: sweet, thick, bright-red sharp cherry with the almond (Maraschino)-boozy ribbon running through.
In dry down, the waxy chocolate + syrupy cherry both fade into a soft, sweet, powdery cloud (almost like a confectioner's sugar mixed with a baby powder) - and you've finished your ride.
While I would love for all notes to remain while wearing, it's still fun to see how the fragrance evolves. It's very true to the name, and it's perfect for Valentine's Day. I only wish it lasted longer!
