Cacao Azteque

Absolutely stunning, and this comes from someone who is not a fan of floral scents, This is indeed to my nose a spicy-heavy, warm, unisex (but masculine leaning) take on a very dry and honey-like tuberose. It starts off with a dusty puff of pepper and a touch of a citrus sparkle that dissipates quickly, revealing mostly a dense cardamom and a dry almost leathery tuberose (among other floral notes) with a delicious rum-y honey-like sweetness. Then the 'stage shy' star of the show appears, a bittersweet dusty cacao note together with a warm musky base. I see a lot of confusion about this not smelling like cacao and I think it comes down to people confusing cacao and chocolate notes. Chocolate has a distinct lactonic fattiness and is heavily scented with vanillin, which is what I think people expected. Instead what you get here is, as the bakers among us can attest to, a dry bittersweet raw cacao. Little vanilla, it seems to be sweetened only by the addictive tuberose and some coumarin in the base, which brings also a certain dry hay like quality to the composition. While not really similar, I am reminded of Guerlain L'instant pour Homme EDT, specifically of the way it sits on a fine line between fresh and gourmand, but in this case it is more of a 60/40 or even 70/30 balance between dry, bright, spicy freshness and delicious cacao honey sweetness. The two are also very similar in term of performance think functional all year round day scent of about 4-5hr longevity, light, radiant, ethereal. If you are looking for dense sweet lactonic chocolate, this is not it (see Chabaud Lait et Chocolat). If you can conceive of a dry almost savory cacao, warm spicy tuberose, I highly recommend sampling this, easily a top 10 fragrance for me.

Cacao Azteque is a stunning and very surprising fragrance. It's like a spicy, boozy mix with florals: orchid, tuberose and pittisporum. The mix of Pittosporum and tuberose is a match made in heaven. Add some sandalwood and cacao powder sprinkled on top of it for the final touch! Gorgeous gourmand, perfect for lover of florals scents with spicy facets. Complex. Very alluring and sexy type of scent. Feminine for sure and more warm seasons appropriate. Moderate performance, lasts up to 5-6 hours with soft projection. Needs over spraying to get noticed, but it is beautiful. I really love the juxtaposition between the rum-cocoa pod contrasted with the white flowers in here. It gives the scent a very edible quality! Extremely well constructed and balanced. I’d be bathing in it if I had a full bottle. Edit 29.11.24 I got a bottle of Cacao Azteque at a great price during Black Friday sales. Smells amazing, a beautiful, powdery, floral gourmand!

I don't get barnyard at all. To me this has a spicy, uplifting somewhat aromatic feeling opening. This feeling stays for the duration of the fragrance for me while eventually the cacao joins in perfect harmony. The cacao is not sweet at all and maybe not be recognizable to some because of that. This is not a gourmand. Perfectly unisex in my opinion. I find it refreshing, intriguing, and sexy all in one. It is far from beast mode, but I like having fragrances like this in my collection that are more for me and by small scent bubble. Update: Previous review was from a spray sample, I just got a FB and find that the opening is much more peppery. I am not sure why there would be a difference but it still had the same gorgeous dry down.

I must agree with antonpan: there is no chocolate or cacao scent; as Calvini and Sir Charles say below, this is a floral. On me, it's a spicy, herbal floral. If you are intrigued by our reviews, definitely get a small sample from Lucky Scent first. I would not suggest a blind buy on this one. May 19, 2019: Sadly, I have used up the rest of my sample. While I found this perfume lovely and really easy to wear, no one else but me could smell the scent. If you don't mind a scent with barely any projection (even when you first spray it on) then try a sample of this perfume.
