Chocolate Covered Cherry by Bath & Body Works delivers a bold, sweetly syrupy fragrance centered on chocolate, cherry, and an underlying liquor-like quality. The opening is a vibrant burst of candy-like notes—waxy chocolate and bright, tart cherry liqueur—that quickly meld into a smooth, edible dry down. It evokes the experience of biting into a chocolate-covered cherry, with a creamy, powdery finish reminiscent of confectioner’s sugar and baby powder. The scent shifts rapidly, with the initial impact being intense and sweet, but as it wears, the notes soften into a delicate, somewhat ethereal sweetness. The fragrance is surprisingly true to its name, with the chocolate not dominating but offering a dusty, milky base that balances the cherry. Many users appreciate its lifelike representation of gourmand candy, while others find it overpowering or unpleasantly syrupy, with some reporting intense head pain or nausea. It is generally not long-lasting, with moderate sillage and wear primarily favored during winter and evening hours.
