Cherry in the Air
by Escada
Cherry in the Air is a bright, airy, and delightfully sweet fruity gourmand that captures the essence of a fresh summer day. It opens with a bright, sour cherry and raspberry accord, creating a juicy, playful, and cheerful impression. Over time, the scent evolves into a soft, creamy marshmallow and vanilla core, layered with subtle notes of gardenia and sandalwood, which add a gentle floral depth and a touch of woody warmth. The overall effect is a light, fluffy, and deeply satisfying scent that feels like eating a cherry-filled marshmallow treat — sweet, fresh, and not cloying. The fragrance is suitable for spring and early summer, ideal for daytime wear, and most appreciated by younger women or those who enjoy light, whimsical, sweet-fruity scents. Its appeal lies in its simplicity and joyful character, though it lacks depth and longevity, making it more suited as a personal signature or occasional wear rather than for high-stakes environments.
