Cacao Noisette

When I first got into fragrances, I had to get my hands on a decant of Elixir Charnel Gourmand Coquin Guerlain, because it was THE chocolate gourmand. Well, I found something sour in it that bothered me to no end. I tried to love it. But couldn't get past that sour note. Everyone kept mentioning Kyse Oui Plus as an affordable option, which is how I stumbled on the house of Kyse. Well, now there's Cacao Noisette. This is the Elixir Charnel Gourmand Coquin Guerlain without the sour note, similar chocolate note to Oui Plus but no patchouli. It is chocolately. And delicious. I buy Cacao Noisette in the foaming bath soap and secretly call it Gloop -- short for Agustus Gloop, who fell in the chocolate river in Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, because it smells like I'm bathing in a river of chocolate and I LOVE IT so so much!

when i think of a gourmand fragrance, i wanna feel like i could be eaten. this fragrance is exactly that omg. i sprayed a on my wrist 6/7 hours ago, and it has mellowed down to a chocolate vanilla, in my opinion, similar to al rehab's choco musk. i love the initial smell, when i sprayed it, people around me could smell immediately. this replicates the smell of nutella on toast in the toaster oven. i love it!! i think this would layer perfectly with a coffee fragrance.

Yup, Nutella. Chocolate is tricky and this one is superior. Very photo realistic and true yummy chocolate. Extremely comforting and I much prefer it to Kyse's Oud Plus, hands down. Just a really delicious gourmand, but sadly it doesn't last on me. I don't mind reapplying, like I said, good chocolate is hard to find for me. I prefer it over Comptoir Sud Pacifique's Amour De Cacao and Chocomusk. It has more body to it and is richer.

This is a divine chocolate gourmand. The quintessential chocolate scent, and the only one you need. It starts off like a dark chocolate croissant, and builds to a hazelnut note before fading into a deep vanilla deliciousness. The chocolate perfume to rule all chocolate perfumes. Adding to my permanent collection. I think it's best for fall and winter but I still keep it around for aromatherapy during spring and summer.

Smells like I’ve rubbed Nutella on my arm. Doesn’t last a heck of a long time but for the 2 hours I can smell it, it’s delicious 😋 Update: I’ve been on a cocoa/chocolate kick with fragrance lately & cacao noisette may not last a long time but it’s a sublime chocolate 🍫 scent. I get a lot of coffee, hazelnut & musk as well as deep, gooey chocolate. It doesn’t disappoint
