Best in Show: Red Berries (2018)

Cranberries, strawberries, raspberries, red currants, pomegranates, goji berries, lingonberries, rose hips, loganberries, and boysenberries. These are some of the most often employed red berry notes in contemporary perfumery that add a sweet, tangy, even zesty nuance to a fragrance.

Nowadays it seems that this family of fruity notes show up in just about every genre whether its raspberry paired with leather in Tom Ford's bestseller Tuscan Leather or strawberry paired with ambergris in Slumberhouse's Sadanne. This week, Fragrantica's international editors discuss some of their favorite fragrances with red berry notes. We invite you to weigh in as we know this is a vast group of fragrances with many favorites both old and new.

RALPH LAUREN Polo Red

By: Marlen Elliot Harrison, co-editor of Fragrantica in English

Think "men's cologne" and red berries might not be the first aroma to come to mind. However, over the last three decades as perfumers have become more and more adventurous we've seen a range of fruity nuances make ther way into the genre. For example, Jil Sander's 1989 Feeling Man put raspberry front and center while Tommy Hilfilger's first men's fragrance, 1995's Tommy, featured a prominent cranberry note.

Polo Red, developed by perfumer Olivier Gillotin in 2013, is first and foremost a red berry fragrance - tangy, juicy, and sweet. Whereas original Polo was a smoky pine forest and Polo Blue was the fresh aquatic, Polo Red takes the old theme of a "tangy red" masculine that we saw in Annick Menardo's 1995 masterpiece Givenchy Xeryus Rouge, replayed in scents such as 2008's Paco Rabanne Ultrared Men minus the spice/woods but with the addition of praline and citrus, and lightens it up with a touch of saffron, and a very understated amber-coffee-wood base accord.

This was an immediate love for me, someone who loves all things juicy and tangy. My problem with Polo Red has always been that, like many other modern Ralph Lauren fragrances, the performance leaves much to be desired. Still, linger it does albeit quietly with an almost musky trail for hours. As I typically do with initial launches, I longed for a scent that would be bolder, richer, and with more prominent gourmand nuances (where's the coffee?). A giant 4.2 oz bottle, procured for a mere $25 USD on an auction site, rarely gets used but when it does I marvel at how much I enjoy it...for the 2 hours that I can actually smell it.

Honorable Mentions: Princesse Marina De Bourbon Rouge Royal, Tommy Hilfiger Tommy, Versace Versus Donna, Diesel Fuel for Life Homme, O Boticário Barolo, Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Grosellina, Ralph Lauren Ralph Wild, Hanae Mori, Antonio Banderas Her Secret

GUCCI Eau de Parfum II Gucci

By: Elena Vosnaki, editor of Fragrantica in Greek

Berries, in all their guises, have entered the realm of "serious" perfumery after they got a boost from the flavours industry and the body products craze for fruity smells during the late 1990s. L'Artisan Parfumeur may have been the pioneer, as far back as 1978, offering a blackberry & musk combo that highlights the natural fruity aspects of the particular type of mud used, but it took years for berries to become the norm for a typically youthful, upbeat, sweetish, happy scent.

Gucci Eau de Parfum II is all of those things, minus the sweet. The composition on paper looks like a middle-of-the-road berries & musk affair, but the distinct advantage lies in balancing the tartness with the sweetness in that blackberry and blackcurrant chord on top. Therefore it provides a welcome freshness, but none of the less desirable traits we associate with man-made essences reserved for yogurts. Without being a natural smelling scent, it surrounds the wearer with an imperceptible aura which dries down to austere cedar, without being heavy at all.

Although its predecessor, Eau de Parfum I, a heavier oriental with select fans, was abruptly discontinued, this one still circulates and proves to be one of the most likeable berry fruit fragrances that even men can borrow. It's great for office wear, for casual wear, for everyday, for when you don't want to be too bothered by your scent, but want to be surrounded by a stealth mantle of clean tartness. Very pretty.

Honorable Mentions: Blackberry & Bay Jo Malone London, Mure et Musc L'Artisan Parfumeur, Tuscan Leather Tom Ford, La Petite Robe Noire Couture Guerlain, Insolence Guerlain

GUCCI Guilty Black Pour Femme

By: Rouu Abd El-Latif, editor of Fragrantica in Arabic

Being on the edge of leaving floral-fruity compositions behind, Gucci Guilty Black was just on time. I remember I liked Gucci Guilty when it first came out; it was inviting and less floral comparing with other releases that year but I didn’t think a flanker would merge more surprises and be more compelling than the original. After a flirty scented blotter had my attention I decided to try it on my skin; they doused my arm generously and I immediately felt the berry effect at the opening, ideally lined with sweet peppery undertones. It was explosive and enthusiastic, bouncing extensive sweet chords, absolutely it’s less floral and slightly lacks the powdery effect of the original; Gucci Black is absolutely all about berries. It’s fleshy, sweet and smoky; while I was expecting something bolder and darker it was tamed with a beautiful and nice berry sillage on my skin! It’s not wild or stained with a dark heavy tint of bold sexiness as expected but it has the right amount of fruitiness to be considered as a mature scent. The red berry, raspberry and vanilla trio reminds me of some remarkable fragrances while it develops; while lilac remains indicating to keep the entire development from being monotonous.

Personally, I love the earthiness of patchouli in a scent's drydown; here it merges beautifully on an amber/musky base while that fruity opining gets more sour and dry; over time it seems more oriental than it actually is. Black is a modern floriental fragrance that might be not very original but it manages to showcase a lot of “berry” sides every moment; every other note is on a supporting role while berries lead the show without a girly/sweet sticky effect that always scares me when berry or red fruits are listed in a composition. It’s absolutely sour, very smoky, moderately sweet and juicy with a sharp masculine twist at the same time. Nothing black about Guilty Black; it’s rather more of glossy red on me!

Honorable Mentions: Aqua Allegoria Flora Rosa Guerlain, Insolence Guerlain, Tuscan Leather Tom Ford, Dior Addict Christian Dior, Parisienne Yves Saint Laurent

Aquolina Pink Sugar Simply Pink

By: John Biebel co-editor of Fragrantica in English

Italy’s Aquolina has made itself a household name with the release of Pink Sugar in 2004. It was a sweet, fruity perfume for younger women that clicked with the public and became a runaway success. Some found it to be far too sweet to work as a “serious” perfume, but then came Simply Pink in 2013, which reframed what a sweet, pink-inspired perfume could be. The shift in notes made a dramatic difference. Most of the pure “sugar” notes were pulled back, leaving raspberry, strawberry and almond as the full-bodied center of the fragrance. It’s a delightful exploration of red berries in their juiciest form, fresh and slightly bruised, with just a bit of the fresh juice appearing on the surface. Bergamot and green leaves add just enough bright freshness to give the opening spritzes a big blast. It’s hard to match the exuberance of Simply Pink’s opening.

It’s nine years between 2004-13, and you can feel how Pink Sugar’s audience has grown up. The cotton candy accord of the former has been replaced by white flowers and jasmine. The central accords of Simply Pink are where the perfume gets its most serious. It calms down substantially and becomes more floral, sweeter in a denser, darker path (with notes like licorice root and praline accord.) Some intriguing nuances drift in and out - a satisfyingly bitter citrus appears and disappears, a subtle vanilla skates in the background and a steady stream of red berries, now more sweet like jam cooking, bubbles away with some steam escaping.

The varying temperatures of this scent are intriguing. It is both cool on top (raspberry has an icy, bracing quality,) and dark on the bottom, where jasmine, licorice, sugary praline and strawberry stew away. This stage of the fragrance lasts a respectable number of hours, somewhat linear, but retaining projection. It feels like a wholly natural evolution to see Simply Pink pick up the reigns from where Pink Sugar started its journey. Red berries was a great place to put the focus of this perfume that is “growing up” since berries are on that edge of sweetness and animalic roughness of the forest. This perfume uses them to a delightful end by balancing serious florals and light-hearted sweets to create something that nearly any wearer would find compels them to smile.

Honorable Mentions: Penhaligon's Lothair, Gucci Guilty Absolute Pour Femme, Burberry Touch for Women, Jimmy Choo Blossom, Hanae Mori No 1

Bvlgari Omnia Coral

By: Bella van der Weerd, editor of Fragrantica in Dutch and co-editor of Fragrantica in English

For years, I avoided any perfume with a mention of red berries, after having my nose recoil in horror numerous times smelling sweet, girly, “happy” fragrances like Aquolina and various Victoria’s Secret editions. I was convinced the whole group was the exact opposite of my taste in perfume. It was Bvlgari’s Omnia Coral that made me give berry perfumes another chance, and the main reason for this was that it lacks the syrupy sweetness of the bulk in berry laden perfumes. At first spritz, Omnia Coral is very fresh, the bergamot standing out, and it has a fizzy quality that I love to start the day with. The freshness has an almost tart feeling to it, in which I recognize the pomegranate and what I guess is the note of Goji berries – the fruit of the shrub Wolfberry, which is an unusual ingredient in fragrance. In the heart, a floral aspect comes through, and I smell mostly the water lily and musk. This stage has a slightly aquatic character, with a bit of a bite to it (I sometimes think of Truth by Calvin Klein at this point), but floral aspects, including a delicate hibiscus nuance, slowly become more and more important. The perfume stays light, never is there a trace of the darker pomegranate we know from for instance Euphoria. Omnia Coral dries down to a warmer, slightly spicy and very woody impression; I get a blend of woodsy notes together with airy sweet musk. Breezy, warm summer days at the shore with some salt in the air is what I’m left with, and I’m loving it."
