The most delicious Nishane
This was awarded the best gourmand niche fragrance of 2020 and for a good reason. The combination of coffee with the passion fruit is just divine. The coffee in here is more like a cappuccino, a bit more potent and noticeable that in the intense café. The chocolate gives it this almost edible quality that makes you want to like your hand :D. It is based on a beautiful ambery vanilla, which combined with the musk smoothens up the formulation but at the same time keeps it sweet. The coffee and passion fruit stays with you throughout the whole duration of the fragrance. The projection is average with above average longevity 12+ hours. Not as potent as Nishane Ani but close. The only sad thing is that this is officially discontinued so if you find yourself a bottle get it while you still can. Worth the retail price? If you are a Nishane fan like me, yes!

More pasion than choco
What is the LOVE? LOVE IS you... I could say that to nishane because i LOVE all the perfumes i have tried from this brand! And this time is not different! Pasión choco' is a very nice perfume which shares the wonderful quality of all the nishane perfumes. It is an extrait de parfum and this is evident from the beggining when you can see the oily character of this perfume (be aware if you are going to wear It with White clothes ☺️). In pasión choco' i have found a very good option to wear during the spring summer un daytime. I can smell a very nice pasión fruit mixed with flowers over a sweet background of chocolate, coffee and different Woods and resins. According to his notes It could seem too intense but It is not. It is even a bit fresh. The longevity and sillage are very good but It doenst project too long. It jeeps close to skin from the opening but It jeeps for the whole day. I have o ly a small dacnt but It goes Direct to my wishlist!!

Advocatus Angeli
A piercingly bitter sour fruit opening, passion fruit fits in my opinion and a thought of grapefruit is also acceptable. The third in the supposed trio would be coffee. On this topic, I need to elaborate a bit: With some good coffees (for visitors to Hamburg: www.die-roesterei.com), it is clearly noticeable, as long as we don't ruin it with milk and/or sugar, that the coffee bean is a fruit, the aromas are so sour-fruity. I do not perceive such here… unfortunately. I went a bit too far, heh. Let's forget that. Instead, I smell a kind of bitter almond aroma note that guides me out of the citrus-sharp opening.

And where to? To the gas station. The scent, despite all its sweetness and floral notes, takes on a gasoline twist, and I can't get away from the baked aroma in this regard. The whole thing also develops - supported by the citrus-and-co fruit remnants - a somewhat synthetic, but still fresh-green, latently plant-juicy touch. It is indeed conceivable that coriander has a certain share in this.

Chocolate is, at least according to our understanding of it, indeed absent, and I already align myself with what has been said. In this context, I rather recall my test of "Piment Brûlant." That also had little to do with chocolate and shouldn't have. Because the Xocoatl ("bitter water") of the Aztecs, which Duchaufour explicitly refers to in L'Artisan, was a mixture of things like water, cocoa, corn, vanilla, chili, and salt. And that the cocoa was fermented back then as painstakingly towards chocolate as it is today can be considered questionable.

I gradually feel like the "Advocatus Angeli" (the content-wise correct "… Dei" would be quite a stretch) of the manufacturer: I am making too many justifying thoughts. There is no indication that the people at Nishane intended such. The scent is simply mediocre and could be described with a more malicious mindset as prickly-sweet-sour-penetrating.

In the late morning, a stinging, floral or heliotropic vanilla spreads, surrounded by our leftover fruity-sour freshness at the threshold of the watery, for which we can be grateful at this point. Interestingly, at some point, the heliotropic synthetic reminds me unexpectedly of Africa by Tesori d'Oriente and even Joop's Nightflight.

In the afternoon, the prickliness recedes and finally reveals a quite decent vanilla, which still benefits from a balancing fruit residue, although it is increasingly approaching canned fruit. Overall, however, the scent is retreating; about five hours have passed. Nevertheless, it lingers in a significantly diminished volume for quite a while. Towards the end of the evening, patchouli scratches around.

Conclusion: What is offered stands in what I consider an unacceptable disproportion to what is demanded (160 euros for 50ml). That the name might also mislead chocolate fans is annoying.

More pasión than choco. More fruity than sweet. Very good quality and performance as the other nishane perfumes. Great option for summer!

Beautiful composition very original overall. It brings me back to Foundamental (first edition) at times. Excellent balance

The idea of combining a chocolate note with exotic fruit is quite good, but it doesn't work because everything is too heavily dosed.

A sharp, artificial little fruit drinks coffee with chocolate. Layered afterwards with honey soap and water, it almost smells nice :-D.

Missed the mark. Nice spicy sweet scent, slightly floral and very vanilla in the dry down. Chocolate? Not at all, at least for me.

Very sweet floral-fruity gourmand scent - a bit of everything, but a lot.

Ridiculous and low-quality. Just below the worst private label shower gel/hand soap from your trusted discount store.

Eating passion fruit and drinking mocha coffee. Sometimes sweet-floral, sometimes a masculine-woody hint. Nice story, but wearing it, no.

Stuffed with undefinable fruits, resinous honey, and thin, slightly burnt coffee. Dull sweetness. Exhausting.
