My auntie's name is Cherie, so I felt inclined to try this. Plus, Kate Spade things seem accessible pretty without being dull or boring. TRULYtimeless is a floral woody musk that will make your day feeling fresh and fun. The top notes are cotton flowers and aldehydes, which will give you an instant burst of energy. It’s also infused with neroli, so it’ll be like taking a breath of fresh air every time you wear it. Plus, white musk and cedarwood base notes will leave you feeling confident all day long. Carnation is not listed in the ingredient list, but the dry down phase smells similar to my dearly loved (green bottle) Cabotine, which I have worn for years since 1999, when a neighbor introduced me to this. The perfume line always had a famous face behind it. Laura Dern was one of the most memorable campaigns for the fragrance. She never participated in a beauty campaign until Kate Spade’s Full Bloom at age 51. Sasheer Zamata also starred in the campaign alongside her. Today, Maddie Ziegler is the face of Kate Spade New York. While at the Bath and Body Shop today, I tried a strawberry inspired perfume by the name of Gingham Gorgeous - and it has a very similar essence to Cherie by Kate Spade. I was not trying them side by side, but the general feeling of the fragrance is basically the same - or close enough where it could be confused with the other perfume. They are both very nice on. Kate Spade's Cherie has a dry down more similar to the Youth Dew Soap Bar in Estee Lauder's line. Gingham Gorgeous is more of the essence - the fragrance chord which stays fairly linear throughout the wear.

KS's New York appears to be the office/business/school version of Cherie... just a little bit more sophisticated and pulled together than Cherie. I tried Kate Spade's New York after sampling Kate Spade's new perfume, Cherie. This is a very similar energy level perfume to Perry Ellis 360 and the other flankers that are in that perfume series. Yes, they have different notes, they don't smell exactly the same, but they all have a similar upbeat, playful, youthful vibe. This would be like the Type 1 DYT Type - animated, playful, fun, upbeat -- could resonate with someone who embodies these characteristics day to day -- or could be worn by someone who is needing to express this type of energy on their day off, for special events, for playtime, for settings when they can let their hair down and just be casual and playful.

Fresh and clean vibe - lovely! Wears in a youthful fashion - any age could wear this and appreciate it, but it definitely leans YOUNG - with a YOUNG VIBE. Wait for the dry down - this has a similar smell as the nostalgic light marine blue Estee Lauder Youth Dew Soap Bars that my mother always loved! This is great on, especially as this wears into the dry down phase! Kate Spade New York was founded in 1993 by Kate Spade and her husband Andy. Kate got her start as a style editor for Mademoiselle but wanted more. Kate Spade, the business, originally only sold handbags. They were styled in classic shapes with wild colors. The company became famous once a journalist acclaimed the brand. Soon the brand appeared on notable famous faces and among the upper class of New York. Ok, for those of you who like perfumes that make more of a statement than this, this will never be "your signature", that perfume that you wear every time you spritz perfume. However, in each person's life, there will come a time when you feel like you need a break from your current routine - to have a vacation, a weekend break, a day off -- or if you are such a work-a-holic that you never take even so much as a "day cation" - then there will come a point where you see the value in a lunch break. When this time comes - this is the type of perfume that can give you a fresh perspective - and a light hearted uplifting vibe. This is that type of perfume.

Cherie is more airy and like you are smelling the entire chord - presented as if it is in a cloud...no hard edges, no notes screaming for attention -- just a nice chord that smells like a great perfume to wear when you are wanting something that blends in, isn't so noticeable - and could be good at the gym, just out of the shower, running errands, outdoor activities, something fresh -- but nothing that lingers like you are wearing "a heavy perfume". After the first 30 minutes this dries down into a perfume that wears as if you are wearing a perfume - one or two levels up from stepping out of the shower - freshly shampooed and with a slight smell of soap... like you used a shower gel or soap. The sparkling top note of citrusy bergamot combined with sweet wild strawberry bursts with optimism and happiness. A Parisian romance that captures tender moments of surprises and adventures. Joyful and luminous, Kate Spade Chérie is a floral, fruity, and musky fragrance embodying a Pop Art spirit. At the top, a colorful combination of currant and raspberry, mixed with sparkling of Italian mandarin. The heart note evokes precious flowers, a delicate alliance of sweet peas and white jasmine. An enveloping accord mixing musks and white wood is revealed in the trail. With its curves and bright colors, the Chérie bottle does not go unnoticed. The color combination unmistakably characterizes the Kate Spade universe: Red evokes passion and vivacity, while bright pink symbolizes romance and femininity, thus offering a harmonious blend of sophistication and simplicity. TRULYjoyful by Kate Spade is an aromatic citrus fragrance that will make you feel fresh and vibrant all day long. The top note of orange is refreshing, while the middle note of pink pepper adds a spicy touch to it. Finally, ginger gives this scent its warm and sensual base note. You won’t be able to resist smelling yourself throughout the day.I sampled this yesterday while at Ulta. This is a really good spring time type perfume. Light, upbeat, playful, sweet, softly romantic - it has a dreamy quality about it. The ingredients blend well where you are not discerning individual notes - but more of the full chord of the perfume. The base note of ambroxan and cashmeran unveils a voluptuous woody touch to the fragrance, instilling it with depth and confidence. One notable face, Elizabeth Saltzwater still wears Live Color Fully to this day. Singer Laura Love wears Twirl and Walk on Air. Kate Spade Perfume Collections I normally start testing lighter, brighter, more fresh and less complicated perfumes - when I'm out spritzing perfumes.
