VioletChaos Report post Posted September 28 In the bottle I get the chocolate immediately but right on the heels of that comes the nutmeg, clove and saffron. A spicy chocolate concoction to be sure! Wet on skin: the coconut starts to bloom into the mix a little. I was slightly worried as coconut can amp on me under certain circumstances. But here it's just another voice in the chorus, adding a bit of depth and nicely rounding out the rough edges of all that spice. Dry down, things get more mellow. The clove is now out in front, but not in a loud way- it's the one noticeable note at this point, but not anything like, say, Thorns' Clove Cigarette scent. The chocolate is still present but waaaay in the back, which makes sense, since this is a chocolate TEA, not a bar of chocolate. In all: low throw, this scent definitely stays close to the skin. Test it before going nuts but don't be surprised if you need to add more to make an impact. A lovely, spicy daytime scent, I see myself wearing this during these next months of seasonal transition, as we get deeper into fall. Pair with your favorite spiced latter variant and a cozy sweater to make for a lovely Autumnal day! ☕ 🍁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poenari Report post Posted October 6 I bought a bottle of this to gift to my hair stylist, who got married on this particular Friday the 13th! She has said she's a foodie, so I am hoping that she will love this not just for the commemoration of her wedding date but also for the scent itself. I haven't skin tested it therefore, but I opened to sniff and wow- this is so lovely! I have a few of the Thirteens that correspond to my own personally important Friday the 13ths, but I might need to buy a bottle of this one for myself too! It's like a lightly spiced creamy chocolate coconut pudding! I'm NOT a foodie and I want to wear this one myself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
