Coffee Addict

There are certain smells that you like to smell but you wouldn't necessarily wear. I used to think coffee was one of those. Boy was I wrong. This is the most realistic coffee perfume I have ever smelled, my brain was not convinced that I was smelling a perfume bottle and insisted that I had a cup of coffee in front of me. The initial spray is full of coffee with a dash of cacao but as the hours pass by; it slowly starts to mellow down into a creamy, caramel fragrance. Think about it like this; first you smell like an espresso and then you slowly start to transform into a latte, then some cacao beans are added, then caramel and vanilla syrup. The drydown is absolutely gorgeous and very gourmand, this will make you smell edible. I believe that this is truly unisex although it is really sweet. I am a big lover of coffee itself so might not be for everyone, those who appreciate it though will find themselves wrapped in a fragrance that develops into a warm, embracing smell. Longevity is absolutely fantastic, sillage as well. I could smell this on me after about 12 hours of applying it, so that should say enough. The quality of the juice in this is incredible for the price you're paying. This together with Theodoros Kalotinis Alluring Fig are the two most unique fragrances in my humble collection.

I've been on the ''I want to smell like coffee'' journey for a long time now, and I'm not saying I'll be dropping the anchors here, but atleast I'll be taking a gran escale. This smells like coffee, pure and bitter and aromatic and deep, warm like it's being brewed infront of you. I dont understand those saying it's too sweet, i wonder if they have found even more bitter coffee like smells, as this is the only one i've found that doesn't deteriorate into an iced vanilla latte an hour into wearing. It's very long wearing, and it might be just on me, but i find this fragrance to particularly stick well and pair with skin overtime, while i like the first sprit of it in the morning, usually it's in the later afternoon when I put my head into my hands during a boring lecture and smell what's rest of this fragrance that i love it the most. It doesn't go acidic on me, it leaves a stain (metaphorically speaking) of scent similar to walking into a coffee shop. Careful, not smelling the coffee directly, but it's proximity to you, and the depth and warmth of it mixing with the walls, the people, the air and the clothes. Like an aftermath and beforemath all at once. I can't explain it better, but it's the best true coffee scent i've found to this date. And so so layerable.

The opening is fresh roasted coffee with smooth caramel, sweet vanilla with the addition of a cacao/toffee note. A caramel latte grande-literally. After dry down, I think i note a subtle salt in the base, although salt it is not listed in the notes above, it gives it some depth. Although this sounds overly sweet, it is not, it's well balanced with the coffee dominating. It is warm inviting, interesting, unique, sooo lovable and just so FUN. It is absolutely ASTONISHING how realistic this fragrance is. My daughter, who is a barista at starbucks agrees, this is an amazing dupe of a real caramel latte. Performance was excellent I did not feel like I needed to reapply. Rating: 10/10. A coffee masterpiece IMO. Projection: 6/10; Silage: 6/10; Application: 5 atomizations; Performance: 10/10. Gender: Unisex; Ages: 21+; A fun daytime winter or fall fragrance. I have not tested in warm weather. Blind-Buy: YES, if you like coffee gourmands. PS: Look above at the Fragram photos of how Theodoros Kalotinis packages this- the perfume comes in a little white gift boxes with a black satin ribbons wrapped around each one with a lovely Thank You note from the perfumer- very classy touch.

In my humble opinion, Coffee Addict is the best fragrance that Theodoros Kalotinis has to offer, considering the scent, the price and the performance. All three aspects are top tier with Coffee Addict! As expected from the name, it’s a coffee dominant perfume, but sweetened with caramel and rounded up by vanilla and cacao pod. A bit more complex than just a coffee centric perfume, but so strong, rich, powerful and delicious. It’s a bitter roast coffee but it’s not a bitter smelling scent because caramel counterbalances with its sweetness that aspect. Vanilla and cacao gives it a strong gourmand feel and smooth nicely the composition. More of a cold weather perfume and perfectly unisex. To me it smells like how it’s smells inside those expensive, independently owned coffee shops. This is incredible! I have tried this scent in store, together with a couple more from the brand, and I let the store with a bottle of Coffee Addict. As a coffee drinker, this is a scent to accompany my slow, weekend mornings, when I’m enjoying peacefully my morning coffee. Highly recommend Coffee Addict, this is a true gem of a fragrance. I know it’s hyped, but it deserves even more praise!!!

I made an accojnt just to comment about this! As a huge huge coffee lover I was looking for a very realistic black dark coffee perfume. At the very first spray I was mind blown. It smells amazing, so so yummy. To be completely fair, it doesn't smell of black coffee to me, but very caramel-like, but a realistic caramel, almost like a yummy coffee with cream or something. And some liquor-vibes, but very very minimal, you can barely smell it, which is good for me. Ive had Khamrah Qahwa, but this is still way better. They really nailed it. I need to test it more to explore the coffee. I have just tested it on my skin, but after a few uses I will be back with more opinions. Amazing!!! Update 2 days later: Still amazing. People around me are definitely reacting positively to it. I've yet to hear something negative. Only heard one say "it smells so good, but why would anyone smell like coffee/caramel-like". Its definitely long lasting. sillage is beastly. You can 100% smell it up in the environment. Stays on clothes for a damn long time, over a day. Amazing at night and colder weather.

I've fallen in ♡ with Coffee Addict! This fragrance captures the essence of a cozy coffee shop in a bottle. The harmonious blend of rich coffee ☕️ and sweet notes creates an irresistible aroma that transports me to my favorite café. What I adore most about Coffee Addict is its authenticity. It's not just another perfume with a hint of coffee - it's a true-to-life representation of freshly brewed coffee with some caramel notes. The simplicity and realism of the coffee note make it incredibly versatile for layering. I've had so much fun experimenting with different combinations, enhancing other fragrances with this delicious coffee accent. As a gourmand fragrance enthusiast and coffee lover, Coffee Addict hits all the right notes for me. It's become a staple in my collection, perfect for those days when I want to wrap myself in the comforting scent of coffee and some sweet notes. Whether I wear it alone or use it to add depth to other scents, it never fails to put a smile on my face 🤩.

If you love the smell of Coffee, this is for you. I myself am a partly a Barista, coffee being a big part of my life, and i love this perfume to death! It reminds me of being in a café drinking a caramel mocha with a hint of vanilla. This perfume is linear, with a small change of the coffee fading a small amount around 6 hours in. It starts with a nice freshly roasted Coffee from Colombia, nice small hints of a nuttyness from the coffee. Then come the caramel along side with Cacao. Vanilla lays beneath it and supports it all. To me, this sort of smells like a caramel mocha with a hint of vanilla. On my skin, this perfume lasts around 8 hours with mid to strong silage. The Coffee note in this is extremely close to being photorealistic. Overall this perfume gets a 9/10 form me.

This fragrance is one of my favourite fragrances of all time. It opens opp with a beautiful realistic coffee bean smell with a touch sweet caramel. It smells like a salted carmel coffee from Starbucks in the opening. After about 2 hours you can start smelling the vanilla that gives the fragrance a fantastic undertone. You can smell the cacao in the background as well. To me Coffee Addict smell like a Tiramisu in the dry down, but som people get the smell of chocolate. The longevity is pretty good with about 7 hours on my skin and the projection is great. I usually goes with 4-6 sprays . Coffee Addict by Theodoros Kalotinis is for people that loves gourmand and coffee fragrances. I gives it a 10/10.

This is a beautiful, photorealistic coffee delight. It is rich and strong ristretto/coffee liquer without being too sweet- still maintaining a tiny bit of coffee bitterness- with the addition of cacao and caramel. It has good lasting power without losing that initial coffee punch. I do see the tiramisu that others mentioned as well. It's a favorite scent of mine because it doesn't lean sickly sweet cotton candy/spun sugar bomb or floral mixed with coffee ( I do however don't mind the montale ristretto intense cafe once in a while) and doesn't smell like a typical gourmand or perfume. It's unique and niche while being a nice uplifting and comforting fragrance.

So this is far better than what I expected. I blind bought this as a birthday present request and do not regret it at all. It opens up with a very realistic coffee smell. As it dries down the coffee is still there but not like a black coffee but as a milky coffee with cream. Later it dries down to include caramel. Its not sweet where it is cloying its balanced absolutely perfectly so it remains unisex. This will be banging on a colder day. It a warm cosy creamy scent on my skin. I adore it. Lasts for a long time and can smell it all day. For the price it's a no brainer for me. I would defo repurchase this.

Theodoros Kalotinis has created a true masterpiece with this fragrance that captures the essence of coffee in a bottle. For anyone who craves an olfactory adventure, this perfume is an absolute must Coffee Addict is one of my favorite gourmand and coffee perfumes, but if someone is looking for the straight coffee smell of freshly ground coffee beans, it's not it. It is a very realistic coffee smell, but it is the smell of freshly brewed scented vanilla/caramel drip coffee. All in all, if someone is looking for a sweet-scented coffee smell, would like it. reasonable price give it ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️’s

In the opening, it smells just like iced coffee. After a couple of hours, it settles down to a caramel, toffee, vanillic base. Very edible. I found, that the first half minute of the opening is quite potent, but trust the process. And when I smell it from the cap, it's just the sour part of coffee with some vanillic background - totally different. Most of my dark fragrances only smell good in the winter, but this one is lovely in the summer too. When it's colder outside, raining - this is perfect. 5/5

as much as i love this perfume, i really dont think the coffee scent is as pungeant as a lot of people say. to me it leans more to the caramel side - like a sweeter latte, not so much a strong burnt coffee. its definitely a personal thing because my dad always points out how strongly i smell of coffee when im around him. after a few hours, the smell really reminds me of crepes, oddly enough. its also very long lasting. i apply it in the morning and i'll still be catching whiffs of it in the evening.

A+ photorealism; this smells more like coffee than the cup of coffee I'm currently drinking. Mildly sweet, like black coffee with a pinch of sugar. Sits close to the skin, subtle, very linear. I feel like I just *smell like coffee* as opposed to smelling like a perfume. Great on its own, and very easy to layer with something else. Pairs beautifully with your favorite gourmand that you wish was a little more robust! I finished my 5ml in record time. Will definitely be purchasing full bottle.

The initial impression of this fragrance is a bittersweet coffee, subtly accented with notes of caramel and vanilla. As it evolves, a delicate chocolate undertone emerges. We particularly appreciate the fragrance's ability to present a seemingly simple profile while simultaneously offering a complex and distinctive character. While the longevity is satisfactory, the sillage, a key consideration for us, could be improved. However, slightly overspraying it, seems to help the lack in sillage.

Slightly close to followed by kerosine, but of course, way worse performance. I’m not sure if another scent will perform as ridiculously as followed. I don’t get a very realistic coffee scent with this one, more of a synthetic coffee and heavy cocoa smell. Not like a traditional chocolate smell, but a slight bitter and heavy true cocoa smell. Not my favorite, but I like it! Curious what this smells like in the air to others though, that might be where it’s true colors show. 7/10

Obsessed with this one. It takes me back to my days as a barista. It makes me smell like a caramel latte which is exactly what I wanted. Coffee and caramel are the dominant notes. Super creamy dry down. Definitely gives latte not drip coffee. After a few hours it becomes almost powdery and more vanilla forward but the coffee scent really hangs on until the end which makes me so happy. I got a small sample and I’m sure I’ll be ordering the full bottle in a few months. 10/10

The most realistic coffee scent! ☕️ The perfumer for this house is a genius. They have done a superb job of capturing the essence of coffee in a fragrance bottle. I can’t believe it legit smells like walking into Starbucks and that whiff you get of coffee as you step foot in Smells like dark roast coffee and the fragrance the develops with sweetness from the vanilla and caramel. This fragrance is divine and the longevity I get is about 7-8 hours

Realistic coffee/chocolate scent. It reminds me of the chocolates with coffee that usually comes im expensive chocolate boxes... its a dream of a fragrance and a must have for all gourmand lovers. It also makes me quite nostalgic cause it smells almost identical to a body cream I had 15 years ago from Sephora that smelled “capuccino”, I remember I pampered myself in that cream in autumn and winter and felt so cocooning and cozy.. love this!!

Je suis tombé AMOUREUSE de ce parfum ! Il est très photo réaliste, quoique je trouve qu'au début il sent le pain grillé du petit déjeuner. Ce n'est pas désagréable mais assez surprenant ! Après quelques minutes, on sent le café et le tiramisu assez amer, mais que j'adore absolument. Petit regret quant à la longévité qui n'est pas folle, le parfum est très fort donc je n'en spray pas énormément afin que ça ne me monte pas à la tête.

It smels like chokolate moka. Not like 3in1 or coffe beens 😂 For me. For around 1 hour its beast in projection. Then sits kinda close. I cant get anything like 7 hours. Maybe 3-5h. Sure on clothes can feel even next day. But this is gourmans dream. If you liked amore cafe, black phantom and etc. Then deffiniatly should have this. Its heavy and deep. Very simple box and bottle. Atomizer is presurized, but very short press.

One of the biggest surprises I’ve had when smelling a fragrance, bought it for the coffee scent and I was blown away. Coffee scent is very noticeable, I would say the Caramel is probably the most prominent scent I get, still a very interesting scent, a literal gourmand and for $50 I would say it’s a must buy if the scent profile interest you. Good longevity and projection, one of my happiest ending blind buys

This opens up as strong, black, realistic coffee. Probably the most well done coffee scent out there and for that alone it deserves a try. However, what happens next is the real magic. It develops into a sweet and amazing pastry, chocolate, coffee shop like smell. It is caramel, cream, dough, of course coffee heavy and vanilla takes on the back. One of (if not THE) my favorite gourmands right now. 8.5/10.

the opening strongly reminds me of tiramisu, deep coffee with some boozyness to it, which quickly turns more milky like a werthers coffee candy once it sits on my skin for a few seconds. If you spray it concentrated onto a small area, it'll smell more like that boozy tiramisu. this truly does not smell like perfume but like a real thing. i cant decide if i want to wear it. but it sure smells yummy.

This is what I think a coffee fragrance should be, most coffee fragrances only use coffee as a background scent to accommodate other notes like caramel, vanilla and other sweet gourmand notes, but this fragrance is just straight raw coffee from the start to end, as many others say it is a photo realistic coffee scent, and in my opinion this is one of the best coffee fragrances I’ve smelt so far

My favorite coffee scent! I’ve only tried two others but this one blew the others away. This doesn’t just smell like coffee beans, there is light hints of chocolate, and some sweetness. The sweetness is perfect and I don’t think this dna can be improved in my opinion. It is perfect as it is. It doesn’t smell synthetic or cheap. If you like the smell of coffee definitely try this one

The most realistic and delicious coffee scent I have atm. As it dries down it gives me toffee sweet vibes. I wear this when I’m tired, to wake me up so I can start my day well. I like it coz it’s not bitter at all and not overly sweet at the same time. It has depth. I’m always craving a cup of hot coffee when smelling this lovely fragrance. It’s one of my fave from the house.

Blind bought this one and I’m so pleasantly surprised! Smells exactly like coffee but with added sweetness. Can definitely smell the caramel note. It’s got a lovely warmth & coziness to it, perfect for colder months. Straightforward & photorealistic coffee scent 😍 Delicious and rich caramel coffee fragrance that has me craving for a cup of coffee every time I smell it.

Thus is a true masterpiece on my top 3 cofee perfumes. I cannot find no minus it blends absolutely stunning and also the fact that he is decent with pricing giving a true gem is really admirable. I am living in Cyprus and gives me the vibe of the morning frappe toghether with a nice ferrerorocher chocolate vibe.I also like from his line peach macaroon and marzipan one.

This smells exactly like coffee candy. It's a bit too sweet, but it’s still a strong like for me. Long-lasting, and luckily it doesn't project much, because if it does, it might get cloying. Scent: 8.5/10 Projection: 7/10 Longevity: 8/10 Update 10/22/2024: Surprisingly, people enjoy the smell of this, and I received some compliments while wearing it.

If you smell this and don’t get coffee, I don’t know what to say. It’s all coffee and some sweetness underneath. Banger if you want to walk around smelling like a barista. Longevity is fine and sillage is pretty good as well. For around $50 it’s pretty great, biggest complaint is that you are almost entering BaBW candle territory with this.

I received a tester of this and IMMEDIATELY went to buy a full bottle. When I say I want to smell like I bathed in coffee, THIS is what I mean. I also got another scent by Theodoros to test and fell in love with it too. This line appears to be accurate with their names, I would 100% blind buy from them especially for the price point.

This is my favorite coffee fragrance. It's a photorealistic caramel iced coffee scent. Starts with the crisp coffee and sweet caramel, then softens down into the vanilla and cacao after a few hours. I love it so much and wear it often. Overall, a simple and straightforward perfume that has decent sillage and staying power.

I think I own or have sampled 1/2 the coffee fragrances out there and this is my favorite. I get a sweet milky but very coffee forward vibe that I find cozy and comforting. And it’s so affordable. Lasts a long time too. For more acerbic drier more realistic coffee try layered with French Coffee from Al Rehab.

This is leans very caramel to me. It reminds me of getting coffee from McDonalds with my Mom before I became a coffee snob. It makes me weirdly happy and I think it would pair well with a vanilla body spray. I’ll probably buy a full sized bottle it the fall since I think it will be suitable for cozy times.

What a lovely scent, quality and long lasting. On my skin is cappuccino and tiramisu that's leanimg feminin. I think it might be hard to wear it as a man (and I say this very rarely). It is because of the sweetness aspect which I would crave to smell of a body of a lady while enjoying our time together.

What a delicious perfume! Rich scent of coffee and caramel. Finally a perfume where I actually smell the coffee. Stays the same for several hours. To begin with the coffeenotes are stronger but after 3-4 hours the caramel/vanilla slowly takes over. Very happy I bought this lovely and well made perfume!

I adore coffee scent and and i have weared many perfumes that smell like coffee but this one is my favorite.! I received it a couple of days ago and is for sure my signature perfume now. In my opinion it is a unisex perfume that is long lasting and value for money. Great composition in a great price!

This is my favorite perfume of all time. Very realistic and prominent coffee note balanced out perfectly with the sweetness of the caramel and vanilla. I have gotten so many compliments on this perfume, it is so worth it. I can't wait to wear this in the fall and winter. Perfect cozy fragrance.

i ordered this alongside kerosene's follow and gotta say this one's got a closer coffee scent than follow. it starts out smelling like one of those chocolate liquor candies, with some coffee in there, and then it mellows out into this syrupy mocha. gonna have to try wearing this one longer.

This is amazing. Smells like a caramel Frappuccino from Starbucks. The vanilla coffee and caramel was perfectly balanced I couldn’t really smell any cacao pod tho. This is by far the highest quality fragrance I’ve seen with that price tag, so if you like gourmand I def recommend this

A risky blind buy for me, as I have not smelled many coffee fragrances, but this stuff is great. Super realistic coffee, some sweetness from the caramel, and a beautiful dark chocolate to back it. Amazing for $55, and definitely gonna be my go to comfort scent for the cold weather.

I loved it so much that I bought a full bottle and what can I say - let me bathe in it 😁 For me is soothing, creamy, politely sweet and darn masculine. Kind of weird as you do smell like a darn good macchiato, on the other hand you ooze confidence. Strictly for cooler temperatures.

I'm a sucker for this. It's not that I want to smell like a coffee shop necessarily, but I want to smell a coffee shop. Who doesn't love the aroma of a coffee shop. And that's what this smells like. Not just the coffee, but your vanilla and hazelnut and chocolate as well.

Photorealistic Irish coffee drink. Warm and cozy, just delicious! Use with caution though, very strong. If you overspray this one, you might end up smelling like a used coffee filter left out to hang by itself over the weekend in the office kitchen biowaste can. ☕️🥃🤎

Photorealistic coffee scent, slightly creamy, slightly sweet, but not sugary or thick. A rich dark roast coffee blend fragrance. It becomes faint almost immediately, but I do not pick up any synthetic note I get in other coffee fragrances like Montale Intense Cafe.

It smells just like tiramisu with dark rum. It's so good I can't stop sniffing my wrist. The coffee scent is spot on! This may not be a signature scent but it will definitely grab people's attention by making them hungry with the coffee and caramel notes.

recently discovered this perfumer, and oh my... best gourmand fragrances i have smelt, such a realistic coffee middle notes are the best part, but this evolves into something so pleasant, sometimes i wear it during cold nights next to my chimney

This smells exactly like walking into a Starbucks. My husband really likes it. It might be nice to have it on for a calming whiff now and again. I'm guessing it would be great for layering, it just doesnt have enough going on by itself for me.

I love it so much. But the drydown keeps getting me weird comments like "it smells like pancakes in here" or "who made cake today". I think it's the caramel. But besides that it has super longevity on clothes. My wardrobe reeks of this smell.
