Chocolate perfumes: the pinnacle of gourmand fragrances
Cocoa is a fruit with an infinite list of qualities, known for centuries even to the ancient inhabitants of South America (the first to cultivate and value it). In addition to being antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective, it facilitates the production of endorphins, has a therapeutic effect on mood and is a powerful source of energy. For this reason, those who create niche fragrances centered on chocolate (of which cocoa is the main ingredient) first of all want to instill a sense of well-being, warmth and pampering in those who come into contact with them, emphasizing all the reassuring characteristics of the greedy family olfactory gods gourmand perfumes.
Often enriched with notes of tonka bean or patchouli, i chocolate scents they have an increasingly large (unisex) list of admirers, who appreciate both their sweetness and the libertine and seductive images they manage to evoke.

We have prepared a list of the most unmissable chocolaty niche perfumes, but warn in advance: you seriously risk addiction!
Boccanera of Orto Parisi
The chocolate you don't expect. With blackmouth, Alessandro Gualtieri has destroyed and reassembled the gourmand family in his image and (chaotic) likeness, creating an extremely original sweetish perfume. Hints of ultra-dark chocolate with chilli pepper yes alternano to balsamic flushes of liqueurs, woods, earth and leather. Persistence and trail are gigantic, among the most swollen and overflowing of the whole line Orto Parisi. The chocolate of blackmouth it is for refined palates, for real tasters. There is no cake to taste, but a triumph of intense aromas that evolve unexpectedly and amaze minute after minute. An authentic artistic masterpiece!
Vicious Cacao by Maison Tahité
Vicious Cocoa it is one of the most harmonious and balanced chocolate perfumes ever. Unlike Boccanera, here the "freshly baked cake" effect is felt and it is simply fantastic! The exquisite note of cocoa absolute present in the heart is surrounded by rum, raspberry and pink pepper on the opening and caramel, saffron and sandalwood on the finish: the result is nothing short of sublime. The fragrance is sweet but not cloying and, always in the heart, it holds precious notes of amber, jasmine and narcissus, which give it an original and seductive floral side. Vicious Cocoa it is the most delicious and successful among the chocolaty perfumes of Maison Tahité: you just have to remember to spray it and not drink it.
Lait et Chocolat of Chabaud
The fascinating perfection of chocolate lightened and sweetened by milk, so loved by children but also an irresistible temptation for adults in need of comfort: this is Milk and chocolate di Chabaud! The resemblance of her to a cup of Nesquik or a very tasty milk chocolate chip cookie is extraordinary and demonstrates the excellent work done by Sophie Chabaud with raw materials of the highest quality. The chocolate notes are present both in the opening and in the base and, combined with those of milk, jasmine and vanilla, create a real olfactory magic capable of making everyone feel like a child again. Milk and chocolate is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating fragrances for lovers of true gourmand niche perfumes.
Cacao Azteque of Perris Monte Carlo
Azteque cocoa features a pure, unprocessed version of the Central American cocoa bean, considered a most precious divine gift from the ancient Aztec civilization. The fragrance screams "spices, spices and more spices" and is very different from the sweet interpretations of chocolate notes that many aficionados are used to. The cocoa of Azteque cocoa it's tangy, peppery and dipped in a glass of rum surrounded by flowers. As always, the choice of ingredients by the prestigious Monegasque maison is of the highest level and this perfume stands out pleasantly for its uniqueness. Those who love raw cocoa and are not particularly attracted by gourmand niche perfumes can finally find in Azteque cocoa its new reference artistic fragrance.
Chocolate Greedy by Montale
Is it possible to harness the flavor of an exquisite chocolate sponge cake, enriched with an orange peel and a pinch of vanilla, in a perfume? Or, perhaps, the taste of those fragrant "esse biscuits" half covered with an irresistible layer of dark chocolate? Yes, if your name is Pierre Montale! Although it is not among the most popular fragrances in the rich catalog of the French giant, Chocolate Greedy it is a little jewel that deserves all the attention of lovers of chocolate and gourmand scents. Sweet, cuddly, enveloping, intoxicating: it is a fragrance that one would almost like to chew before spraying it on oneself. The hints of vanillin common to many designer niche perfumes Montale they integrate perfectly with the cocoa powder, creating a nice "pastry effect" that manages to entice without annoying. Absolutely trustworthy!
04 Musc Maori by Pierre Guillaume Paris
04 Musc Maori it's a cup of hot chocolate with hints of amber and a splash of bergamot. Pierre Guillaume has chosen to enrich the cocoa bean absolute of this bewitching fragrance with white musk, creating an unusual but tremendously sparkling and vital mix. The effect obtained is comfortable and energizing at the same time and risks generating a sort of addiction. Unlike a classic opulent and gourmand gourmand perfume, 04 Musc Maori it maintains a lightness and verve that make it suitable even for non-enthusiasts of sweet fragrances centered around chocolate. Highly recommended.
