Refreshment stick
You probably know them all...milk chocolate chopsticks with a citrus-flavoured sugar-crusted filling. Like it or not. No, they were never my thing, although I like most of the sweet stuff, jelly bananas, dark chocolate, and even the mentioned refreshment sticks excluded. The combination of citrus and (brown) chocolate is simply not taste compatible for my tongue. My mother knew this very well and therefore bought the things for herself - they were safe from me, because I often enough stibizt her the chocolate nut in the purple boards, which she loved as well
But it's different as a fragrance! I don't mind that combination. So I was happy to get a sample from my watchlist. In fact, at first I can see both opposites, citrus and chocolate, from my point of view none dominates. On the back of my hand, the scent soon loses intensity, but remains present. The fragrance has a citrus and gourmand note, but without too intense sweetness. Over time, the orange note predominates on me, but the chocolaty one remains as a rather cocoa-powdery background. The comparison with the Jaffa Cakes or the bitter chocolate covered candied orange peels (both of which I don't like to eat for the reasons mentioned above, only the oranges with a white coating), I think, too, fit, but the refreshment sticks simply came into my mind.
In the further process the perfume loses with me unfortunately a little at points. It looks a little stale on my skin.
Still worth testing for friends of unusual gourmand perfumes!
