Do you sometimes feel guilty when you devour larger amounts of chocolate? Because it usually goes the same way every time: You break off a little piece from the chocolate bar, nibble on it, and then can’t resist breaking off another small piece to keep snacking. This continues until only a pitiful remnant is left, which of course gets nicely wrapped up so that you can cry the next day about how little is left and how much you’ve eaten, even though you didn’t want to...
… and now you must be smiling because you’ve recognized this behavior in yourself exactly as described above, right? :DD
Well, I have to admit that it’s actually difficult to resist… but what can you do when you’re so weak-willed? :D *sigh*
It’s especially bad when you swear to do a bit more exercise the next day, and then end up lazily lying in a corner, of course with the kitten in your arms, who is sleeping so cutely that you become sleepy just by looking at it and even doze off a bit… :D
But let me get to the scent!
The Scent:
At first, the scent smells really like cocoa. But not like prepared cocoa, rather it smells as if you were to open a cocoa package and sniff the still dry cocoa powder, while you start to drool because you know you’re about to prepare something delicious (but please don’t drool into the package, ewwww!!! :D).
Only gradually does a milky note come in, which together with the cocoa smells like hot chocolate or warm/hot cocoa, which is pretty great!
Additionally, there’s vanilla, seemingly just to enhance the sweetness and softness of the scent, making it a bit powdery, but initially also a bit drier.
The milk becomes a bit more noticeable towards the base, while the sweet, chocolaty scents rise even more.
For me personally, however, the milk content is a bit too high in the end. This wouldn’t be so bad, but it smells more like hot or boiling milk, which gives off a scent I don’t particularly like; however, for those who have no issues with that, they will find a wonderful, chocolaty scent here, because overall, the scent has turned out quite delicious!
The Sillage and Longevity:
The sillage is actually quite good for a short while, so it pleasantly catches the attention of someone nearby. However, it also seems as if someone nearby is preparing hot cocoa rather than it smelling like a fragrance. Later, the scent becomes a bit weaker but generally remains in the above-average range.
The longevity is extremely high; the scent lasts a very long time, probably until the next morning, but I can’t say for sure since I went to shower in the evening… on the other hand, I could still faintly smell the scent on my skin even after the shower… and I am NOT stingy with soap, in case you were thinking that… hrmmm….
The Bottle:
The bottle looks high-quality but also a bit simple. It is cylindrical and clear, with a white label on the front featuring the logo and name, and the font looks quite nice. The cap is rectangular and transparent. As I said, it’s quite nice, but also a bit plain.
Hmm… there are many things that could be called sweet. Certain emoticons, cats, animals or baby animals in general (did I mention cats? :D), sweet women (no, I don’t mean you Parfumas, because you’re prickly, aaarrrgh…! :DDD), or also sweet things to enjoy, like chocolate, cookies, candies, chocolate, and more chocolate… *sigh*
He he he, yes, as expected, the scent has turned out to be a very sweet-smelling, chocolaty fragrance, which naturally leads one to wonder how wearable such a scent is, since it actually smells like hot chocolate. When you spray it on, it does smell great, but perhaps also like you spilled cocoa on yourself, which I can certainly imagine happening to you. No, I don’t want to annoy you by just claiming that you’re clumsy, because I KNOW that you are clumsy!
A dear friend of mine, for example, has the tendency to spill everything, but EVERYTHING, that she eats. It’s cute that she sometimes quickly looks left and right to see if anyone saw it, and yes, I saw it. Since she always gets herself messy, I actually just wait for her to spill something when we eat together, mu ha ha ha :D
So it could very well be that you might also be clumsy, although I don’t really know anyone else who is THAT extremely clumsy :DD
Anyway, the scent is good for use in autumn and winter, but probably more for personal enjoyment as a kind of relaxing scent rather than using it, for example, when going out, although you would surely smell delicious with it!
It’s definitely worth a try if you’re into milk and chocolate!
