doomsday_disco Report post Posted November 20, 2024 If you don’t have access to fresh Krampus Kreme, store-bought is fine! Here’s a warm draught for the naughty-listers: hazelnuts, almonds, and coffee beans sweetened with heavy cream froth and honey and spiced with ginger, black pepper, black cardamom, and cacao.

ghoulnextdoor Report post Posted December 31, 2024 (edited) When I smelled this extremely robust coffee scent, I thought, "woweee, this smells like spicy Krampus coffee shop romantasy #booktok drama!" KRAMPUS'S FORBIDDEN GRIND #1 in Demon Romance (CW: coffee addiction, consensual soul bargaining) When artisanal coffee roaster Peppers McGee* accidentally summons Krampus with her darkest, most potent brew yet, she doesn't expect him to become her most demanding regular. The way he salaciously savors her honey-kissed foam and black pepper sprinkle makes her wonder if he's hunting for more than just the perfect cup. Between the scorching intensity of fresh-ground beans and the sweet heat of their growing attraction, Peppers must decide: keep playing it safe with her usual roasts, or risk it all on a blend that could consume her completely. "The coffee shop demon romance I never knew I needed" - BookTok "People are mad about the foam art scene but whatever" - GoodReads "Finally, a Krampus who knows his way around an espresso machine" - Literal Demons Book Club *Peppers McGee has a lot of adventures and shows up in a lot of perfume reviews!

doomsday_disco Report post Posted February 13 I've tried this three times. Twice as a test amount, once as a full-day slather. The first time I tried this, I thought it was a really creamy, almondy dark coffee scent and I was tempted to get a bottle. But the subsequent test and slather has been more about the coffee than any almond, spices, or creaminess. The coffee is very dark and smells like coffee grounds to me. I didn't get the blast of almond during the last two applications... it was mostly dark coffee grounds with a bit of honey and a hint of the spices on me. While I still enjoy it, I don't love it like I loved it the first time I tried it, and I prefer the creamy coffee of Hazelnut Lavender Latte. At least there's no funky dairy in the heavy cream froth note, though. I can see little flecks of the cacao in my decant, but I couldn't smell any cacao on my skin. I'll keep my decant and probably retest this again before it goes away, but at the moment, I don't feel I need a bottle of this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
