Tom Ford Lost Cherry
Lost Cherry is a 2018 cherry fragrance for women by Tom Ford, created by Louise Turner.
“Cherry liqueur spilled on a velvet couch at 1am — and nobody's cleaning it up.”
Black cherry, cherry liqueur, and bitter almond at the top; griotte, rose, and jasmine at the heart; tonka, Peru balsam, and sandalwood at the base. Louise Turner's 2018 Tom Ford Private Blend release — widely credited with launching the modern cherry-gourmand category. Performs strongest in fall and winter, leans evening, with strong projection.
