Cherry Amber by Matière Première: a new floral fruity scent with a cherry heart

Cherry Amber is a new fragrance from Matière Première, released in 2026. This floral fruity creation is intended for both men and women.

The perfumer Aurélien Guichard has paired a ripe cherry note with rose at the heart and a warm base of amber and Exaltolide®.

The opening of Cherry Amber is dominated by cherry – a lively, juicy note that immediately gives the fragrance a cheerful and indulgent character. It’s not overly candied, though; the cherry feels almost natural, with a slight tartness that keeps it interesting.

In the middle, the rose adds a classic floral elegance. It softens the fruit and brings a romantic quality to the blend. The rose is present enough to be noticed, but it never fights with the cherry on equal terms; the result is a calm, confident bouquet.

The base is built around amber and Exaltolide®. Amber contributes warmth and a faintly resinous depth, while Exaltolide® adds a creamy, musky undertone that makes the scent feel close and comforting. This is where the perfume settles into a soft, cosy skin scent.

According to the main accords, you’ll find notes of roses, cherry, amber, sweetness, florals and nuts. This combination points to a fragrance that feels rounded and tactile: the nutty edge gives a certain sophistication, while the floral and amber elements keep it grounded.

Cherry Amber is a versatile choice for a variety of moments. It has enough presence for evening wear, yet its sweetness is not overwhelming, so it can work equally well as a daytime scent. The dry-down is particularly pleasing, leaving a warm and slightly powdery trail.

Matière Première shows here how a bold fruit note can be handled with finesse. The cherry is distinctive, but it’s woven into a larger composition that feels balanced and considered. That’s what sets this apart from simpler fruit-forward releases.

This fragrance will appeal to those who like fruity florals with depth and warmth. It’s also a good choice for people who want to try a cherry scent without feeling like they’ve walked into a confectionery – there’s elegance in every stage.

Cherry Amber is a surprisingly sophisticated take on a fruit-centred perfume. With its well-measured blend of cherry, rose and amber, it’s a worthy addition to Matière Première’s range and a convincing reason to explore the house further.
