Cabochard Chérie

Cabochard Chérie is a soft, feminine gourmand chypre with a modern twist, blending sweet pear, praline, and white florals with a grounding patchouli and subtle leather. It opens with a cool, fresh herbaceous note—largely bergamot and basil—followed by a clean, feminine version of Cabochard’s iconic leather, which remains smooth and unobtrusive throughout. The core evolves into a delicate balance of fruity sweetness, with pear and praline forming a light, airy creaminess that warms the middle notes of freesia and orange blossom. Patchouli is present but well-integrated, neither overwhelming nor missing, contributing depth without heaviness. The scent develops slowly and carries subtle changes on the skin, culminating in a softly leathery-sweet dry-down that feels both vintage in spirit and contemporary in execution. It performs well with moderate sillage and good longevity, making it suitable for daytime wear, especially in spring and autumn.
