Fragrance Character
Kotolabo Double Cherry Blossom is a unisex solid perfume from the Japanese brand Kotolabo.
Its mood is built around blooming cherry blossoms, fresh greenery and a soft musky-ambery base.
The composition belongs to the floral and green families, so it smells delicate, transparent and expressive at the same time.
The name Double Cherry Blossom evokes the image of a cherry orchard in bloom, but the fragrance is not limited to a sweetish floral theme.
It has a green accord that adds freshness and makes the development more lively, while rose and lily of the valley lend a subtle romantic touch to the heart.
This fragrance is for those who enjoy floral compositions without heavy powderiness or excessive sweetness.
Structure and Development
The top notes open with a cool green accord and expressive geranium.
This opening feels fresh, slightly herbal and composed: the floral theme appears immediately, while retaining a natural, almost garden-like character.
Cherry blossom, lily of the valley and rose unfold in the heart.
Cherry blossom creates the composition's main emotional image: light, airy and unmistakably spring-like. Lily of the valley adds purity, while rose makes the scent rounder and more feminine without taking away its versatility.
The base is built around amber and white musk. They soften the green-floral opening, give the fragrance greater depth and help it remain noticeable on the skin.
As a result, Double Cherry Blossom gradually moves from a fresh garden impression to a calm, warm and delicately sensual trail.
Longevity and Wearability
According to the product listing, Kotolabo Double Cherry Blossom has a very strong sillage.
For a solid perfume, this makes the fragrance particularly interesting: its compact format encourages precise application, while its rich scent allows the composition to make an impression even when only a small amount is used.
Exact recommendations for applying it to skin and clothing are not provided, so it is best to start with a minimal amount and gradually add more if needed.
Apply it to pulse points such as the wrists, neck or behind the ears, then assess how it develops after a few minutes.
Solid perfume should be applied to fabric carefully and only after testing it on an inconspicuous area.
The fragrance is presented as unisex and suits anyone who appreciates a combination of floral freshness, green nuances and a clean musky base.
It can be especially fitting for spring and summer, daytime wear, a walk, a date or any occasion when you want to leave behind a noticeable yet refined scented trail.
Its Place in a Fragrance Wardrobe
Double Cherry Blossom stands out among typical floral fragrances through its balance of airiness and intensity.
Here, cherry blossom does not become an unequivocally sweet accent: green notes and geranium add a fresh dimension to the composition, while white musk and amber provide a lingering, soft finish.
Its overall mood may appeal to fans of Faberlic Pour Toujours, as well as to those drawn to classic floral compositions with rose, lily of the valley and a pronounced trail.
At the same time, Kotolabo Double Cherry Blossom retains its own Japanese minimalism: its character is built not on excessive ornamentation, but on the contrast between a fresh blooming garden and a clean amber-musk base.
The year of release, collection affiliation, perfumer's name and other concentrations of this fragrance are not specified in the available information.
Therefore, the release's main distinguishing features are its compositional concept and solid format, which fits easily into an everyday fragrance ritual.
This is an expressive unisex fragrance with a floral-green character and very strong sillage for those who want to wear the mood of cherry blossoms in their own way.
