The Tears of Joy of the Barista

Coffee scents are as plentiful as sand on the beach these days, and it seems that a "coffee" note is now considered essential in every perfume.

On my odyssey to find the perfect coffee scent, I have finally arrived!

I can honestly say, with all seriousness that the topic of perfume requires, that.....this and only THIS scent comes closest to an authentic coffee experience!
YES! Black coffee, baby! :)

The circle was completed a few days ago when I tested the last accessible and well-known coffee scent "Coffee Break - Golden Dallah," and believe me, I have tried THEM ALL :) (almost)

(Okay, in my defense, I should mention that I am missing a few small manufacturers in America,
who produce fragrance oils with coffee aromas, and you certainly can't cover everything)

No annoying rose, no excessive vanilla, no sandalwood, no flowers, etc.....just coffee... black, dark, roasted!

Of course, I don't want to say that other scents don't have a reason to exist, not at all!
There are also coffee scents that capture the theme of coffee well for over 2 hours, but then unfortunately shift in a different direction.

For my part, I simply wanted a coffee scent that smells as if you are opening a 1 kg pack of whole bean coffee, and what can I say:
Mission accomplished!

The question that always arises: "Do I want to smell like I've been doused in espresso?"
YES! Definitely!

The longevity is very good (10 hours) / the sillage is noticeable for the first hours at about a meter, but then becomes closer to the body; however, it always remains present for me as an aura.

Absolutely, great enthusiasm! I’ll gladly grab a cup of coffee, "black as a moonless night," as Dale Cooper would aptly put it.

Absolutely right, this is THE coffee scent! At first, I found it too clingy, but now I really like it and had to have it.

It's like I'm sniffing my coffee at Caffè Platti. Pure and traditional! Very fitting comment.

So far, I haven't found a truly authentic and good coffee scent, but I haven't tried the Follow by Kerosene yet :-)

Kerosene has also become one of my favorite brands.
I would almost buy them all... if they weren't so expensive ☺

Nice title. Coffee scents aren't really my thing, but I enjoyed reading your comment anyway.
