Sabrina Carpenter Cherry Baby Eau de Parfum 75ml

Sabrina Carpenter Cherry Baby Eau de Parfum 75ml is unapologetically sweet, and anyone shopping for something discreet should stop reading here. For everyone else, it is a well made dessert of a fragrance with more going on than the bottle suggests. Cherry is the lead and it is the glace sort, dark and syrupy rather than tart, with brown sugar thickening it immediately. Plum adds a wine like depth and apple a brief flash of something crisper, but the opening is essentially a confection and intends to be. The middle is where it earns its keep. Dark chocolate appears, dry and slightly bitter, and that bitterness is what keeps the cherry from becoming sickly. Vanilla orchid runs underneath it, softer and rounder than straight vanilla, while red poppy and peony add a powdery floral lift that stops the whole thing reading as a pudding. Cashmeran, amber, musk and patchouli make the base, and they are chosen for texture as much as for smell. Cashmeran is warm and faintly woolly, amber thick and resinous, musk soft and skin close, and patchouli adds a dark earthiness right at the bottom that gives the sweetness somewhere to sit. Gil Clavien composed it. It is long lasting, projects for a good hour and leaves a trail on knitwear for days, so two sprays is sensible. It is aimed squarely at younger women, works best in cold weather and at night, and it is exactly the kind of scent people stop you to ask about. The Sabrina Carpenter fragrance line started in 2022 and has grown into a set of sweet, dessert led scents. They are made and sold by Scent Beauty, a separate company from the singer herself, which produces fragrance for a number of other performers.
