Burnt coffee?
I refuse to put this on my skin again. Upon first sniff, this smells like freshly ground coffee, very warm, a little bit sweet and quite comforting. It smelt beautiful on paper so I decided to give it a go on my skin.
On my skin the coffee smells awfully burnt. As it dries down, it smells a bit rotten and stale. It’s incredibly nauseating, I tried to stomach it thinking I might enjoy it but I ended up getting a headache. I’ve never wanted to scrub off a fragrance so fast but considering how good Lorenzo Pazzaglia’s fragrances are in terms of projection and longevity, this stuck around even after attempting to wash it off multiple times.
This is much better on paper so I don’t think the coconut or apricot notes work with my skin chemistry. In fact, they overpower the coffee note. Not the best fragrance I’ve tried from Lorenzo Pazzaglia unfortunately, this was such a letdown.
