Mocha Chocolatta Ya-Ya

Chocolate, coffee, and cream pretty much sums up this fragrance. It is truly scrumptious, sweet but not loud. It is full bottle worthy for me.

A warm choc, not a dry one. The opening beats the dry down, which melts into a strange vanilla.

I really like this one! So happy, optimistic and warm scent. It smells like a hot chocolate drink.

Although not listed, I'm getting something like a syrupy maraschino cherry or candied orange in the opening along with the chocolate. Imagine biting into one of those chocolate covered cherries... then the coffee comes into play. The chocolate note is done well here, with the coffee providing a realistic mocha scent. Definitely a literal gourmand, that dries down to a comforting shea butter scent. Simple, but underwhelming for the sheer fact that it lacks complexity. I appreciate the fragrance though, it’s hard to produce authentic smelling chocolate; and this does not turn sour, musky, or dusty, like Montale Chocolate Greedy or Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille did on my skin. Easy wear, but not full bottle worthy, like Silken Tent is.

This reminds me of being forced to drink Ovaltine in the morning before going to elementary school. Not good memories nor a good smell. Sour powdered chocolate without enough sugar to redeem it. Scrubber
