Forbidden Love eau de parfum 80 ml — Maison Alhambra
Forbidden Love is a unisex eau de parfum by Maison Alhambra, in a warm, gourmand register. The brand opens it with bitter almond and rose, takes it through a heart of cherry, then sets it on a creamy base of tonka bean, caramel and Peru balsam. A sweet, fruity composition for those who love bold gourmand fragrances.
Olfactory pyramid
- Top notes: bitter almond, rose
- Heart notes: cherry, black cherry, amber
- Base notes: tonka bean, caramel (toffee), Peru balsam
How it unfolds
The opening pairs the bitterness of almond with the roundness of rose, which keeps it from going straight into sweetness. In the heart, cherry takes over: black cherry gives it a darker shade and amber warms it. The base turns softer and creamier, between tonka bean, caramel and Peru balsam, a resinous material with vanilla-like accents, which stay close to the skin.
Who it’s for, when to wear it
The brand presents it as a unisex fragrance. Its sweet character makes it better suited to evenings and the cooler seasons, from autumn to late winter. In hot weather, a single spray is enough to keep the gourmand side from taking over.
How to use
Spray from about fifteen centimetres away, on the neck or the inner wrists, without rubbing. Two sprays are a good starting point. Avoid layering it with another sweet fragrance, which would blur the interplay between almond and cherry. Store the bottle at room temperature, away from sunlight.
