Chris Collins Forbidden Apple Croque Moi

Product Overview

Forbidden Apple Croque Moi by Chris Collins is a bold fruity gourmand that blends juicy red fruits with warm spice and deep woods. Sweet, rich and slightly provocative, it plays with the contrast between bright fruit and a darker, more textured base.

The fragrance opens with red apple, strawberry blossom and brown sugar, creating a glossy, juicy sweetness lifted by a subtle touch of pink pepper. As it develops, cinnamon and pomegranate add warmth and depth, while white rum introduces a smooth, slightly boozy richness. In the base, fir balsam, vanilla bourbon and Haitian vetiver create a deep, woody finish that grounds the sweetness and leaves a lingering, addictive trail.

What Does Forbidden Apple Croque Moi Smell Like?

Forbidden Apple Croque Moi opens with a juicy, almost candied apple note. It feels crisp yet syrupy, with strawberry adding a soft, fruity sweetness and brown sugar giving it a warm, caramelised edge.

As it settles, the fragrance becomes richer and more complex. Cinnamon brings a glowing warmth, while pomegranate adds a slightly tart, juicy contrast. White rum adds a smooth, rounded depth that enhances the gourmand feel.

In the dry down, the scent deepens into a warm, woody base. Fir balsam adds a slightly resinous, green nuance, while vanilla bourbon brings a creamy sweetness. Vetiver grounds everything with a subtle earthy freshness. The result is a fruity gourmand with a darker, more sensual finish.
