Delicious Chocolate

I ordered this blind after falling in love w/ BBW Chocolate Amber (discontinued) and Angel. I blame my quest for a good chocolate fragrance on having sampled Guerlain's Elixir Charnel Gourmand Coquin. It has spoiled me. And I can't afford the hefty price right now. So anyways, I sampled the Delicious Chocolate, and at first, I recoiled... well, not really... but was more taken aback by the initial whiff of this stuff. I only sprayed a little on my skin and moved on to other frags I was testing that day. All I thought was... "okay, chocolate. Not sure I'll really want to just smell like that on any given day." So I kind of dismissed it as cheap and stupid and berated myself for buying it blind. A few days later, I was in the mood to give it a real test drive. So, I layered it on top of Chocolate Amber, and really got some good sprays on my body... cleavage, neck, (front and back) and wrists... strong chocolate, of course...and I forgot about it... until about an hour or so later i was sitting watching some tv, and I got this wonderful whiff... and I was surprised by it. So I tucked my nose under my shirt collar to really give myself a sniff... and OH! How pretty and nice. This has a great dry down. I like the tobacco pipe smoke scent as well as the more masculine way it ends up being. Can I pick out any of those listed notes? Not really... some woody, some musk. But its more about the chord it strikes rather than any single notes. The chocolate is there, but I don't think anyone would walk up to me and say "hey, you smell like chocolate!"... in fact I would defy anyone to find that note specifically (post dry down). All in all, this is a fun one. And if you can't afford Angel, or can't find Chocolate Amber (or don't want to pay huge prices for a Bath and Body Works discontinued scent), then I think you might try this one. Let it sit, take it for a test drive. Give it a chance. You may be pleasantly surprised!

this is my new favorite. was on the fence. mainly because i bought it so cheaply. but never one to discriminate, i wore it to work just the same. as soon as i walked out the door and the cold november air hit my skin, I instantly knew. WOW. it is a smooth oriental with a very clean finish. although it is not listed, the main top note is black pepper with a hint of bittersweet chocolate and a base of vanilla. not as chocolate as one would think. but sexy and floraly. is that a word? not cheap. not tacky. went inside and sprayed more. even spritzed my hair. did not become cloying. stopped at the gas station and the men were on me. one introduced himself, one said i smelled BEAUTIFUL, and another must have smelled the chocolate because he ate me up with his eyes. can't wait to try this on a hot sultry night. retains its peppery and chocolate notyes if you press your nose to your skin. LOVELY

For those of you that never got to smell Chocolovers, I am SO sorry! That was absolute Chocolate Perfection. Now Aquolina still forever sells the Pink Sugar we are all so over & left behind the best of the best. Anyway, NO, this isn't Chocolovers, but it isn't bad. This is a Choco scent for a few minutes, turning into an ambery musk. Lasts longer on clothes, I can't smell it on my skin after 15 minutes or so. Gale Hayman's Scents are "Fun" & not too serious. For that reason, I adore my bottle. It does smell like the Chocolat Mat (above), but that does last longer, I have that one also. They have the same Ambery Musk Base. When this came out, KMART sold these for like $12. Ahhh, the good ol' days...NatalieN on Youtube

Kitttymoon, try Amour de Cacao from Comptoir Sud Pacifique for the most intense chocolate taste ever.

I'm surprised by how much I like this, I was expecting something overly sweet, but DELICIOUS CHOCOLAT is the perfect balance between feminine and masculine, so doesn't lean in any direction too much. The chocolate note is prominent, but it is rich and clearly dark, so it isn't milky and sweet. The juicy, softer plum and peach notes blend closely with the lemon notes, again minimizing the sweetness of the notes down. If I have any complaint, it is how the heart and base of the fragrance in fairly linear; the florals aren't strong enough to stand out. Once the woodsy notes develop and mix with fruits and chocolate, the resulting effect is quite spicy. I think that there is patchouli here, to give the blend a rich, earthy tone and perhaps saffron too. Chocolovers is one of my favorite fragrances, but DELICIOUS CHOCOLAT doesn't remind me of it, no matter how much I want it to. I see the resemblance between the notes, but the overall result is different. I nominate Kate Walsh Boyfriend as the closest cousin to this.

I'm pleased that evidently the Gale Hayman line has solved the problem of the stinky decorative panther lids, as I've bought several of her fragrances in the past 6 months and haven't encountered any with the displeasing packaging/lid odor. I was looking forward to this scent, but it doesn't live up to its name as well as So Delicious, Delicious Amber, or even plain old Delicious or Glamour do. The initial chocolate is dark and deep, but also harsh and strongly alcohol-laden, like chocolate extract. It mellows after a couple of minutes as the vanilla and dark fruit kick in, but then the chocolate fades quickly, and after an hour I'm left with a slightly fruity, uncomplicated amber skin scent. All well and good as I do like fruity ambers, but I was hoping for a chocolate-infused amber. If I feel I can handle the initial alcohol blast at bedtime, this may become one of my favorites for sleepwear, but it's not going to make it to my daytime event or evening-out shelf.

I ordered this unsniffed online for dirt cheap and I wasn't dissapointed. Despite the fact that other notes are listed first, I get chocolate on the first spray, well, kind of chocolate liquer. That lasts a while and after that it settles down into chocolate mixed with tinsy bit of plum and amber. If I had to compare drydown to something, I'd say Sensual Amber from BBW. But opening notes I haven't smelled anywhere before. I don't always want to smell like chocolate but every now I get a craving and this one satisfies. Lasting power is ok, I get 2.5-3 hours layered with Sensual Amber lotion. My skin eats perfume so it may last longer on other people. I can't say I like the bottle a whole lot, its really huge and clunky and doesn't come any smaller than 3.3 oz which is a minus in my book. I agree with jodee that you get sort of cigar note at the end-I don't actually mind it, it sort of smoky and sweet. Very interesting fragrance

This one is a rather nice and unusual perfume .. i though it would smell off thick warm chocolate. But in the begining this is pretty fresh almost a bit citrusy, but not just that there is somthing else aswell. hm.. this stage goes over pretty fast. then the chocolate is coming more to its right . It is a dark chocolate, a bit dry..i think the woodsy notes makes this interesting. The jasmin and rose lingers around playing it nice. the plume hmm not so detactable to me , the peach , yes its there but very subtle. This has a bit off coffy and nuts to it aswell.. Not a sweet very gormand perfume to me , more a grown up dark chocolate..This makes me feel comfortable , a bit sexy and mysterios..:) but this one could have last a bit longer , I guess i have to put more one , and also one clothes.. but after all i like it <3

Really wanted a choco scent, and counldn't track down Aquolina's Choco Lovers soo.. went with this one since I had already owned Delicious Cotton Candy From GH so I thought Id go for the blind buy. Well wasn't what I expected, thought there would be more choco but I also get a more masculine scent, which I actually really like! I recently found Chocomania Body Butter from TBS and they blend well together,... so yummy!!! I also found it goes well with BBW Sensual Amber too!!

non avevo nessuna aspettativa nei confronti di questo profumino economico, anzi credevo si trattassse di un accordo strasentito di cioccolato e nulla più. mi sbagliavo. ovviamente non mi sono imbattuta in un capolavoro ma in un dignitosissimo bouquet fatto di cioccolato amaro dai toni legnosi, sorretto da qualche nota muschiata. l'evoluzione si assesta su una lieve ambra di tutto rispetto. è moderatamente persistente ma non stucchevole. gradevole.

I blind-bought this online, thinking it'd be right up my alley since BBW Chocolate Amber was my signature scent before it was discontinued. I really, really wanted to love this, but on my skin it just smells sickly sweet, almost vomit-inducing. Layered with another fragrance to give it depth (maybe Calvin Klein Obsession?), Delicious Chocolat could be wonderful, but as is it is pretty unwearable.

Firstly let me celebrate the fact that I didn't get a stinky lid woo hoo!! Delicious Chocolate opens up with this glorious boozy Chocolate Irish Baileys and as quickly as a downed shot glass it's gone..... What I am left with is Chocolate milk with maybe a little bit too much syrup and a touch of musk. Can't smell any other notes and it doesn't last very long. Think I'd rather the Baileys.

Love this one...at first I agree with kittymoon...I smell chocolate and some kind of liquor; good smell. As time passes you can smell a musky, creamy, vanilla, amber scent that's just heavenly. Like it very much!

Very chocolate. Nice, but without the complexity that Chocolovers has. Chocolovers has depth to it, this one doesn't. I like it a lot...but has NO staying power AT ALL.

struggling with this one and want to love it but don't; hairspray chocolate; a little musky jasmine. It goes on chocolate and is nice for a few minutes but then turns to hairspray and some musk. More like orchid and chocolate; maybe the vanilla comes from vanilla orchid. It has a sharpness to it. No fruits. This is a floral hairspray chocolate. The chocolate doesn't last long. You are left with hairspray floral and some musk.

Maybe it will grow on me? Just sprayed a generous amount on my arm about 30 minutes ago...First I got a slightly artificial chocolate diluted by lots of alcohol (chocolate Necco Wafers stirred ino a shot of vodka?) That has faded away, and I'm left with no chocolate, just a very close scent that is generic and feminine. If I smelled this blind-folded I would think it was a drugstore body lotion, or a lipstick. Sometimes I find that something I initially disliked is better and better the next 2-3 times...But at first sampling on my skin, this seems very unremarkable, even a little icky. -Revision: After trying this several more times, I found it a fairly pleasant, warm, sweet, and slightly chocolatey. The trick is to apply plenty, but try very hard not to smell it for the first half hour or so. Plenty, because it quickly fades to a very soft close skin scent. The initial alcohol intense experience makes me feel a little panicky (Holy crap! Why did I just spray that on myself?).

Found this at ROSS today for dirt cheap... only $9.99 for a 3.3 oz bottle. It was on my WANT list for a while so I decided to snatch it up, and for the price, what did I have to lose? I think it's very sharp upon first spray and very boozy. I love chocolate in perfumes, but this composition is just average to me. It quickly turns into powdered chocolate and musk over vanilla and light spice. I find it somewhat masculine too, and I can picture a man wearing this in the colder months. I honestly think it would smeller much better on my husband than it does on me. Too bad! I wanted it to knock me off my feet. I guess I'll be sticking to my coveted SJP Covet for my chocolate fix. If anyone wants to swap, let me know ;o)

I wish I would of found this web site before I purchased this perfume. I was looking for a perfume that smelled like chocolate and was not to pricey. When I was at the store I smelled it on a strip of paper and I was so happy I thought it was exactly what I was looking for. I was wrong a lil while after i purchased the perfume i smelled the strip again but there was hardly any chocolate sent left :< It now smelled like a perfumey spicy musky scent. Similar to Victoria secrets rapture or amber romance. Since i don't like either of the two this sent this is not for me. So i returned it.

This was a blind buy. I thought, I love chocolate, I love the price, why not? But, I gotta say this gets a thumbs down for me. It opens super chocolate-y then turns into a tobacco pipe smoke smell on me. I honestly smell tobacco pipe at the end, it's horrible on me. Like the start, don't care for the finish on this. Like the chaton on top of this bottle though:).

It's really smelling a bit like Chocolovers or Expeau2. In the end it's quite nice, also "delicious". You can get the chocolate from it - but its' a cheaper chocolate scent and that's what you get: easy chocolate notes that mix a bit with fruits and flowers and fade away quickly. No staying power.
