Amore Mio Eau de Parfum

Amore Mio Eau de Parfum is a cherry-and-almond gourmand from Jeanne Arthes, made for women. Gourmand is the accord everyone names; about half also find it woody and citrusy, and a minority musky or floral.

Amalfi lemon opens it with a bright, sunny zest, joined by lychee and blackcurrant for a juicy, slightly tart fruitiness. Cherry arrives quickly and becomes the heart of the scent, dark and sweet, with almond and marzipan beside it giving that classic cherry-bakewell pairing of fruit and sweet nut paste. White flowers add a soft, creamy floral layer that stops it reading purely as confectionery. The base is tonka bean, Virginia cedar and musk: the tonka deepens the almond sweetness, the cedar adds a dry, pencil-like wood, and the musk softens the finish on the skin.

It is a cool-weather scent that suits evenings and anyone who enjoys cherry and marzipan together. Those who like sweet, almond-led gourmands with a citrus start should find it very easy to like.
