Pink Champagne Truffle

PCT has already been quitely making waves in fragrance circles. I have had a chance to sniff some of Kedra Hart's Opus Oils line and PCT is actually a reworking for her Raspberry Rose Rapture Oil. What hits you straight away is a blend of roses, Moroccan and Bulgarian as per official notes mixing with the boozy Marc de Champagne which is actually a brandy. This stage is a potent heady aroma cloud that just envelopes you completely. Projection is beast mode for the first 2-3 hours. The Booziness then settles a bit and the fruity raspberry begins to come through blending with the Roses. Kedra Hart is a master at transitions as anyone who has had the pleasure of sniffing her oils will testify. Her perfumes seem to glide effortlessly from one stage to the next without any jarring notes with the grace of a Ballerina. The last stage of the fragrance is when the underlying dark chocolate starts to come out and twirl with the Fruity roses, ending in a wonderful finale of lush, delicious gourmand notes. Projection as I mentioned above is "Beast Mode". Longevity as far as I can tell is between 18-24 hours. I can smell it on my clothes the next day. Panah London have seriously upped their game. The initial 4 releases were good frags, Pink Champagne Truffle is on another level altogether. Kudos to Kedra Hart and Panah. This has been the yummiest thing I have smelled in a long time and a textbook example of how to do a Gourmand right. If you have any sort of interest in Gourmands, you owe it to yourself to sniff this one. Fabulous Stuff. 10/10 PS - I have to add a caveat. This is strictly a cold weather frag. It gets really cloyingly sweet if you wear it in hot or humid weather and the boozy aspects dont come out at all.

💝🍫 This perfume smells exactly like opening a heart-shaped box of raspberry chocolate truffles on Valentine's Day! It's delicious, comforting, and 100% gourmand. The chocolate is realistic and rich. The fruity rose and raspberry notes come together in a sweet and creamy way that paints the image of the pink filling inside of the truffle after your first bite. Raspberry chocolate truffles are one of my favorites, and this perfume is so believable! 💝🍫 One thing though, realistic chocolate smell (not cocoa powder/cocoa puffs!) has a pungent note at the top that gives it that distinct and recognizable chocolate smell. To me, it can come off a little stinky in perfumes. And in the opening of this perfume, it can be a bit much for me. I wish the stinky note wasn't as strong.. it does mellow out though and then its perfect. I don't spray this perfume directly on my skin because I get too much of that stinky top note, but I will spray it above me and let it sprinkle down on me so the chocolate is much softer. After wearing it a while, it turns into a pleasent sweet fruity chocolate skin scent, low key kinda reminds me a little bit of a scratch and sniff sticker, but definitely not in a bad way. 💝🍫 I LOVE layering this perfume with Roses Vanille by Mancera. It brings out more of that raspberry rose pinkness to chocolate in this fragrance. The combo is the ultimate Valentine's Day scent! 💋❤️

Lucky enough to get samples of Pink Champagne Trufflles, I was blown away by this masterpiece by Kedra Hart who is the nose behind the fragrance. This is a cacao and boozy brandy fragrance that settles into a dusty truffle with touch of Moroccan rose and raspberry. If you are a gourmand fan your collection is not complete without this exquisite perfume. By default admirers of Montale chocolate greedy, Guerlain Coquin, Dior Feve will appreciate Champagne Truffles. This beauty has a phase for every note which can be detected distinctly especially the crystal clear Moroccan rose. The intial burst is luxurious yummy Chocolate Brandy Raspberry burst and as time follows on the below is what I get. After : 11-17 secs rose Moroccan 1:35 mins on wards cocoa emerges still rose and brandy background 5 mins on wards cocoa becomes powdery with still a distinct Moroccan rose dominating and boozy brandy vibe. All so beautifully blended . Post 15 mins the fragrance becomes more intense and a beautiful gourmand saga continue. This is a projection bomb so careful with the trigger. Sillage is amazing and longevity is almost 18 hrs . Champagne truffle is so beautifully blended that the cocoa brandy does not come across cloying unlike other sweet synthetic gourmands.

This came to me as one of the samples from Perfumery.co.in (Mohit Khatri) and I still remember I applied and immediately asked Mohit what in the Chocolaty hell was this one, he mentioned the brand and told me to wait for 10 minutes. My goodness after 10 minutes this was a Gourmand masterpiece I have ever experienced. This was a life changing scent for me which made be crazy enough to buy the full bottle without any hesitation. Pink Champagne Truffle A boosy cacao, fruity never experienced before. This is a heavenly magic, the cacao, fruity and the champagne is truly awesome. First 10 minutes is just chocolate, but wait for some time and let is take you to a sweet journey never experienced . Just WOW. This is a masterpiece by Kedra Hart This was one of the best buy for 2017 and it will stay in the top for sure. This would also be in the Top 3 Best Gourmand fragrances for all time IMO. Hats off to Kedra Hart, Amitt Patel for bringing this into the perfumery world and Mohit for delivering.

I’m normally not the biggest gourmand fan but this stuff is SO good it literally converted me! It has this sparkling champagne quality that keeps the gourmand notes from being cloying or too rich which is usually the issue I have with a lot of gourmand fragrances, especially chocolate. It’s like a gourmand with air bubbles! The raspberry and chocolate is very authentic smelling and it literally makes me hungry! Everything is balanced so well with the rose and it’s not “too” sweet feeling nor too chocolate heavy though it’s very present! Don’t get me wrong it’s a sweet gourmand fragrance but I can’t wear a lot of really sweet fragrances because they make me woozy but this one doesn’t do that at all. It’s absolutely delightful to smell and puts me in a good mood. It’s a happy, delicious scent!

Another masterpiece by Panah London, but this time on a whole different level. Opens with the combination of raspberry dark chocolate and liquor with rose playing it's role in the background. This combination lasts for about 8 hours and becomes sweet chocolaty scent which lasts another 8-10 hours. This is the manliest gourmand I've come across, though women can also pull this one. It's sexy and very very seductive. Go easy with the trigger. 2 sprays and you will project like a beast for minimum 6 hours. After that, 1-2 feet projection for 3-4 hours. This is the most potent juice I own till date. If you are a gourmand lover then you shouldn't miss this one out.

@MihirJ I have smelled Dua BCT and the only thing Panah PCT has in common is the chocolate note. The Dua has caramel and vanilla. The Panah has a very strong liquor note from the Marc Champagne brandy and has roses and raspberries. They are both chocolate gourmands but thats about all they have in common. They do very different things even though they are in the same category. Its like comparing a Snickers Bar and Lindt Chocolate. Which you prefer is upto you but there is a world of difference in the nuances. Cheers!

It’s a absolutely luxurious, decadent dark chocolate scent with gorgeous velvety rose. I loved it immediately whenI received the sample of Raspberry Rose Rapture by Opus Oils. The parfumerie said they are almost the same formula, the only difference between them is Pink Champagne Truffle has been added extra Bulgaria rose oil and Raspberry Rose Rapture has only Morocco rose oil, other ingredients amount in formula are the same. So Pink Champagne Truffle’s rosy feel is more potent. Very beautiful and heady.

just got a sample of this fragrance. It is exquisite and truly intoxicating. It opens with dark chocolate, liquor and raspberry. Then settles into a biscuity truffle and it lasts forever on my skin and clothes, projection is also good. It is super yummy and well blended. I think it's best for fall/winter and night-time. It's simply incredible and a must try IMO. 10/10

PCT is a very nice dark chocolate, boozy, rosy, truffle fragrance! Up close to the skin i get mostly chocolate, but in the air around me i get the full composition, and wow does it smell good! However, this leans a little towards the fem side of unisex, but i don't care, im gonna wear it anyway! Mmmmmm...

PCT PCT what can I say. I finally got my hands on this beauty and wasn't disappointing. By far one of the best boozy gourmands created at least by a English House ! Panah has nailed it with PCT . Projection 10/10 Sillage 10/10 Longevity 14-16 hours 10/10 Brandy and Chocolate done well.

Pink Champagne Truffles opens up in the top with a fizzy boozy accord then it transitions into the middle with a freshly ripen raspberry that concludes to a chocolate covered raspberry treat. I can pick up on a rose note but only to a trained nose can you examine that furthermore

Love at first sniff! totally stands by the hype as it smells just divine. Boozy chocolaty with a hint of rose.This is going to be my signature fragrance from now on, and I'm so scared because it's expensive and I know I'm going to need a few more bottles of it.

To my nose: sweet raspberries, dark chocolate, and red wine. I like how these accords work together. The dusty, powdery feel of the dark chocolate with the sweetness of the berries are well balanced with the boozy feel from the bitter red wine.

I did a side by side test with Dolce Passione and I prefer this one. It's smoother and a little fruitier. I like both, to be honest, but I think the Panah could be worn 3 seasons while Dolce Passione seems like a cold weather scent to me.

holy mother of all gourmands. Wow. The liquor is the top main note. A boozy sweet syrupy heady dark chocolate covered raspberry with a tiny hint of a floral rose note in the base that makes it jammy. This is big and bold.

My nose, my opinion. I loved this. It made me think of the raspberry truffle chocolates I was given as a xmas treat as a child. I could smell it all day. Other people did comment but they weren't as positive as me.

Decadent chocolate raspberry truffle dipped in pink champagne. In my opinion, worthy of purchase. Beautiful presentation

To me this fragrance is Brandy (liquor) with dark chocolate, a hit of raspberry and a touch of rose. Deliciously dark :)

I love this. Its a boozy, almost fizzy gourmand with very distinct chocolate notes. Smells delicious!
