To sum up Una Tira L’Altra, it’s amarena cherry in a bottle!
The opening blast is powerful and intense, with the dark cherry juice and syrup splashing all over. However, just short of stepping into cherry cough syrup territory, Una Tira L’Altra soon pulls itself together and reveals a mouthwatering tartness among its boozy, succlent fruity sweetness, strongly evoking amarena cherry to me.
The fragrance largely remains unchanged throughout its 10-hour longevity. It just becomes ever slightly more creamy about 4 hours in, hinting at subtle nuances of vanilla and almond but never fully showcase them. The sillage is heavy during its first hour, and remains moderate later on.
Because of its hefty opening of gourmand, syrupy cherry, and its relatively simplistic approach, Una Tira L’Altra might have a fairly narrow audience. But as an amarena cherry solinote fragrance, I honestly think this is one of the most fantastic ones in the current market, if not the most. If you’re looking to indulge your nose with a spoonful of amarena cherry, I’d highly recommend giving Una Tira L’Altra a try.

Hilde Soliani Una Tira L’Altra is centered around a singular cherry note, capturing both the sweet and tart aspects of the fruit and landing the saturation somewhere between a fresh cherry and cherry wine, the result being a realistic cherry but slightly denser than the experience of real fruit. It has the brightness of a light cherry but twinges of darkness of a black cherry, as well. It definitely feels like an ensemble of the various elements that I regard as part of the cherry, the wine being perhaps the most interesting twist.
This is surely my favorite fruity entry from Hilde Soliani to date, and its simplicity is matched by its elegance.
Performance is very good, consistent with the better entries of the line. The pricing is, like the rest of the line, $160 for 100ml, and it is available at Luckyscent exclusively in the US, to my knowledge.
8 out of 10

I hated this and had to scrub it off. Straight cherry cough syrup. I’m surprised by the other reviews saying it is nice. I have Escada Cherry in the air which I love, it’s sweet and fruity. Not like this.

opening: crisp, juicy, mouthwatering cherry, a lot of cherry
dry down: a hint of sweet marzipan (almond) and tangy tonka, building a subtle powdery base for the – now gentler – cherry
the fragrance notes only mention cherry, in the main accords however tonka and almond are listed
longevity on my skin is very short, even after applying on moisturizer – maybe I should try it on my clothes like @kxnaiades does.
comes close to Mancera, Wild Cherry

A solifruit fragrance of straight-forward, realistic tart cherry. Lovely on its own or could be layered. No one does gourmand like Hilde Soliani, this is beautiful.

I agree with butterbean that Una Tira I Altra is ALL about cherry, so if you are needing a cherry fix, this is for you. Generally I prefer scents that have a story to them but now and then it is rather refreshing to get straight to the point, especially when the point is as delicious as the images of dark cherries that litter my mind when wearing this.
Where BB gets cherry candies, I get tart cherries which I prefer anyway. It does start a little sweet when first applied but dries down to a smell that I relate with the fresh fruit. Most important of all, it smells completely natural to me. Overall a delightful scent that keeps me happy. Projection is moderate and longevity is very good, my clothes still smell strongly the next day.

CHERRY CHERRY CHERRY and when you are done with that put more CHERRY on it.
Una Tira Altra smells like sucking on Ludens Cherry lozenges tastes. Not one lozenge but a good mouthful of them — like 7 at the same time.
It opens fizzy sharp sticky sweet cherry syrup. It takes about 30 minutes or so for it to calm down a bit. About an hour into wearing it begins to play nice. There is no other note in this perfume other than Cherry. It is like you are making cherry lollies or candies and you added way to much cherry flavoring? This is Una Tira Altra.
It is OK on its own, but much better layered with another perfume. The more I wore it the more it grew on me. I like this scent, I really do….but it lacks some kind of balance to soften the strong cherry note and keep it from being too much– something like almond or vanilla.
