I bought the 15ml spray because I wanted a smaller size to test but wanted to make sure I got the gorgeous shidarezakura (weeping cherry blossom) label. This is a small independent company and it&#8217;s clear they put so much effort into every aspect of their products; it seemed a shame not to share the pretty artwork as well as the fragrance.<\/p>\n<p>Keith and I spent last weekend in one of the more Japanese areas of Los Angeles (more on that in an entry soon) and I figured that it would be the ideal time to try out this scent. Man, was I ever right. This perfume is <em>incredible<\/em>. The sakura is subtle, so my hunt for that particular note continues, but it strikes the absolute perfect balance between fresh and sweet. I can absolutely see this becoming one of my go-to signature scents, and I suspect I&#8217;ll be buying a larger bottle as soon as this one runs low. I may even grab a larger one to leave here in California and take this smaller one back to me next time I head home to Montreal so I&#8217;m never without it.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a pure, clean sakura note, then move on. However, if you&#8217;re looking for something warm, comforting, a little sexy, a little fresh, and entirely unique, don&#8217;t skip out on <strong>Match Made In Heaven<\/strong> by Sorce.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"topnote\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"note\">I purchased this item myself and chose to review it.<\/span><span class=\"note\">If you have a topically appropriate\u00a0craft, product, or service you would like me to review, <a href=\"http:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">please contact me<\/a>.<\/span><span class=\"botnote\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They say scent is the sense most strongly tied to memory.
