Ex-presso, not "Espresso"
Parfums Café belong to the Cofinluxe group, a firm which also produces Parfums Taxi, the entire Salvador Dali line and the fragrances by Charriol.
The 2012 "Café Expresso" was composed by the talented perfumer Julie Massé (who did the fabulous Noir Premier - Terres Aromatiques 1905 for Lalique in 2014) who probably had a young audience in mind when working on this one. It's an acceptable fruitchouli (think "Coco Mademoiselle") with black currant, jasmine and orange blossom. The base contains patchouli and musk, but you'd be hard pressed to search for the aroma of coffee in "Café Expresso". Absolutely no coffee here, just a very pretty golden-beige vessel with a stylized coffee bean in its centre. Kind of misleading. I was given this one as a present (because of the nice bottle), but don't think it'll become a fragrance I'll use on a regular basis. Too "meh".
