Colombian Cacao

Colombian Cacao by History Parfums is a masterful blend of indulgence and depth that evokes both warmth and intrigue.The fragrance captures attention with its creamy, powdery cacao pod that opens with a subtle chocolate note. Unlike a typical gourmand fragrance, this cacao is sophisticated, not overly sweet, creating an elegant aura of warmth rather than edible decadence. The richness of the cacao is beautifully complemented by the fresh bitterness of coffee, offering a balance between indulgence and grounding earthiness. As the fragrance evolves, the patchouli makes its presence known—earthy and slightly woody, it lends the scent an almost tactile texture, like the grounding sensation of a velvet robe on bare skin. Perhaps the most unique touch is the Coca-Cola note, which adds an unexpected and delightful effervescence. It lifts the composition, imbuing it with a fizzy, sweet sparkle that plays playfully against the more sensual and darker elements of the fragrance. The combination of citrusy top notes with the fizzy, cola-like sweetness enhances the fragrance’s brightness, yet it's never too sharp, maintaining a soft, luxurious undertone. As it settles into the skin, the fragrance blooms with the warmth of rose jam and the subtle sweetness of jasmine, adding floral richness without overt femininity, making it perfect for both women and men. The dry-down is a comforting embrace of tonka bean, vanilla, and musk, with the vanilla lending a soft sweetness and the musk providing a sensual, almost skin-like warmth. The powdery finish adds an intimate quality, leaving behind a trace of softness that lingers close to the skin. Colombian Cacao is a fragrance that beckons for intimate moments—whether a cozy evening with a loved one or a romantic night out. It’s a scent of luxury that combines both the comfort of sweet indulgence with the elegance of sensual, earthy depth. Perfect for a date night or a quiet night in, this fragrance will linger in the memory, evoking feelings of warmth, closeness, and sophisticated allure.

This stuff is fantastic, just a touch of citrus at the opening followed by the coffee and cacao. I smell a touch of chocolatey patchouli (which I usually don't like), and I picked up on the powdery notes and musk. Very unique, just like the rest of the line. This was a very interesting and seductive fragrance for me, and I would definitely buy a bottle. As always, sample first!

Currently testing this and I really like it. Not experienced at writing reviews yet so forgive me. This is a dark chocolate, spicy & sweet frag with an amazing trail. I also get vanilla but it's not sweet and sickly ag all. I also get the patch. It's very unusual and performs well. I can't find much info on this house though. Luckily we have a UK supplier as I might need a FB!

I like this one more than Franck Boclet Vinyl. It has Dior Homme Intense powdery note mixed with Coca Cola , Coffee, Patchouli and Cacao. This might even replace my Dior Homme Intense.I wish the jasmine and rose they would replace with Cinnamon and Labdanum. Unfortunately this only comes in a 30ml bottle.

The cacao pod and Colombian coffee lend a warm, bitter, and elegant edge to the Coca-Cola accord at its heart, masterfully crafted with notes such as cinnamon, lime, lemon, orange, coriander, vanilla, and nutmeg. Colombian Cacao is not overly sweet. On my skin, it smells incredible and makes me feel confident, sexy, and effortlessly cool 😎 I don’t drink soda, but I want my skin to drink in this scent 🤤 The dry-down is identical to Tonka Cola by Mancera, but in my opinion, Colombian Cacao’s opening is SO much better. Instead of evoking freshly brewed mocha, Colombian Cacao by History Parfums makes me think of chocolate-covered coffee beans dusted in cocoa powder. The citrus and spices at its heart continue to draw me in as it dries... what an intriguing scent!

#693 in my "Tour de Fragrance" This is my fourth History Parfum and it's another high quality and unique entry. Strong coffee and cacao opening, and at first I thought, "I would drink this", but just didn't know if I would wear it. It's not sweet at all. I never picked up the citrus or cola. The powder, rose jam, patchouli and musk came through after ten minutes when the smell of an espresso shot died down a bit and the scent softened overall. The longer you wear it the more you like it. Solidly unisex, solid longevity, moderate projection. Certainly won't offend anyone unless the smell of a Starbucks offends them.

I thought this was a lovely scent but very feminine so my wife uses it. This was gifted to me from a friend from Colombia who knew I liked scents. Very floral and you can smell the Cacao. The longevity is about 6 hours. I would recommend though, even for a man. Very unique.

It’s like Dior Homme Intense gone wrong with black licorice added to it. It says powdery notes, def iris. It’s floral.

Not at all what I was expecting. The "cola" note is deeply overwhelming. It's somewhere between herbaceous medicinal elixir and if RC Cola had produced its own scent 80s toy doll, a la Strawberry Shortcake. There is something artificial, not quite a plastic, but something synthetic in the mix. This is absolutely not a safe blind buy. It was my reason for purchasing the discovery set from this house and the only one I didn't enjoy.

This is an amazing chocolatey perfume with booziness and patchouli. It’s perfectly unisex and not too bitter of sweet. I concur with the last two reviewers. What nobody has mentioned is the amazing packaging. The perfume comes in a dark wooden box with a bronze coloured card sleeve. Very chic and classy. This perfume is outstanding quality at a remarkable price. Probably the best cacao perfume in my collection and I have a lot.

Opens with an herbal cough syrup smell, reminiscent of something like Ricola or Pei Pa Kao. It’s making me wonder what the original formula of Coca-Cola was like, back when it was a “medicinal tonic.” The fragrance quickly becomes chocolatey and floral; dry down is powdery and gourmand. Looking at the notes, I was afraid this would be sickeningly sweet, but it's actually quite soft and warm.

Ok... you are craving "Fève Délicieuse" by Dior and you don't want to sell your kidney in order to purchase a used one! get "Colombian Cacao". Just note that "Colombian Cacao" is kind of weaker than "Fève Délicieuse" but both are quite identical to each other. It's fizzy humid cacao with vanilla, tonka, patchouli, citrus, musk, and coffee. it's "Fève Délicieuse".

After the bright cola note in the opening wears down in 5 to 10 mins, it is 99.5% same with Feve Delicieusse! Already bought a bottle

This one was not for me,,unlike Swiss Praline. It’s just a mess to my nose. Nope.

Does anyone have a bottle of this for sale?
