About This Fragrance
No. 444 is a bold, cherry led gourmand fragrance from The Essence Vault, built around sour cherry and rose over a smooth sandalwood and vetiver base, capturing the indulgent and slightly dark DNA of Tom Ford Lost Cherry. Product Overview No. 444 by The Essence Vault takes on one of the most distinctive fragrances in the Tom Ford Private Blend collection, translating Lost Cherry's signature cherry liqueur DNA into a more accessible unisex option. It retains the gourmand sweetness and slightly intoxicating character of the original while sitting at a price point that makes it genuinely wearable as a daily option. The fragrance appeals to anyone drawn to rich, fruit forward gourmands who wants something with genuine character rather than generic sweetness. Scent Profile The opening is led immediately and boldly by sour cherry, juicy and slightly tart rather than candy sweet, which gives it an edge over more straightforwardly sugary cherry fragrances. There is a slightly boozy quality to the opening that hints at the maraschino character of the original Tom Ford. The heart introduces rose, softening the cherry with a delicate floral note that adds a romantic nuance without pulling the fragrance into conventional floral territory. The base brings sandalwood and vetiver, providing a smooth and slightly dry woody foundation that grounds the sweetness and stops the fragrance from becoming cloying in the dry down. Technical Structure and Development The fragrance remains cherry forward throughout its wear, with the rose adding nuance in the mid wear and the sandalwood and vetiver providing structure and balance in the dry down. It is more linear than complex, maintaining its sweet fruity identity from open to close, which makes it easy to wear and immediately recognisable across the full arc of its development. Performance Longevity runs to around 5 to 7 hours on skin, with stronger performance on fabric and clothing. Projection is moderate, carrying the cherry character well in the opening before becoming closer to skin as the base settles. The sillage is pleasant and approachable rather than heavy. Wear Scenarios - Evening and night time occasions - Date nights and social events where something sweet and distinctive is appropriate - Autumn and winter when rich fruity gourmands suit the conditions - Occasions where confidence and a slightly unconventional choice are welcome Scent Family Positioning Fruity gourmand, sitting firmly alongside cherry and dark fruit led fragrances. The style lane is rich and sweet leaning without crossing into full oriental territory, making it one of the more distinctive positions in the Essence Vault range.
