The coffee is announced in the name and it is indeed there — but in the base, not in the opening. It matters to say so: this is not an espresso in a bottle, it is a spiced fragrance that ends on coffee.
— The opening is a trio of warm spices: cinnamon, cardamom, ginger. Frank heat, with no citrus to soften it.
— The heart brings praline and candied fruits — the house does not say which — with white flowers for height.
— And the base does the work: coffee, vanilla, tonka bean, benzoin and musk. Perfumery coffee is not morning coffee: it is a roasted bean, bitter and sweet at once, which marries with the vanilla to give a mocha effect.
Register: autumn, winter, evenings. Long wear, sustained projection.

The name announces marshmallow, and the official pyramid does not name it. I would rather tell you straight away: what gives the marshmallow effect here is heliotrope. Heliotrope is one of the finest materials in gourmand perfumery: a flower that smells of almond, powder and cooked sugar all at once.
— The opening is orchid, heliotrope and mandarin: that is where all the softness of the bottle comes from.
— The heart is announced vaguely by the house — a gourmand accord and tropical fruits, without saying which.
— The base is clean: vanilla, musk, sandalwood. Warm sugar over soft wood.
Who it is for: someone who likes sweet fragrances but not cloying ones. The sandalwood in the base keeps the vanilla from turning into candy.
Register: all year, rather in the evening in winter. Long wear, moderate projection.

Dates and cinnamon.
— The opening is a spice shop: cinnamon, nutmeg, with bergamot to keep it from being heavy from the first second.
— Then the heart arrives with dates and praline — dried fruit, sweet, candied, exactly what is served with coffee after a meal. The tuberose adds a white flower to air the whole thing out.
— The base is long: vanilla, tonka bean, amberwood, myrrh and benzoin. Myrrh and benzoin are resins — they are what give that smell of soft incense and warm wood you breathe in a mosque. They are the fragrance's signature.
Who it is for: someone looking for a fragrance that tells a story.
Register: autumn, winter, Ramadan. Long wear, sustained projection.
