Cacao Porcelana is my favorite from the brand so far. It opens with a dusty, sweet, and super-realistic cocoa note, grounded by an earthy base that eventually mutates into something more floral, even adding a bit of dirtiness to the scent. The result is quasi-gourmand, full of nuances and layers where cocoa remains the center, surrounded by warm florals and a base that adds sweetness. I agree with the comparison to TMOV’s Rococo and Nest’s Cocoa Woods, but here the overall quality is better. I see it as unisex, though slightly more feminine due to the floral charge, ideal for temperate and cold climates. It’s versatile, but I think it shines most on dates or special occasions. I like it, but I’m not sure if I’ll buy it given the high price. However, it’s a must-try if you’re looking for a more natural and less commercial cocoa experience than what perfumery usually offers. Note: 8/10 Tested from the Discovery Set.

Warning: if you’re looking for sweet chocolate, this isn’t for you. I agree with the previous reviews: the opening is 100% natural cocoa, powdery, dry, without excessive bitterness or sweetness, hyper-realistic, and unique. As it dries down, the white floral appears, slightly powdery on my skin, blending in the base with smoky tonka bean notes. Solid evolution: it starts dry and powdery and ends sweet and creamy. 100% unisex, elegant, and sensual. I find it very original; it doesn’t smell like anything I’ve tried before. My only gripe is that I’m not sure if it’s olfactory fatigue or if on my skin it becomes a personal enjoyment scent starting from the 2nd or 3rd hour (rare, since I’ve read good reviews about its performance). Either way, I’m not sure if it’s worth spending this price if I barely notice it after a couple of hours… What a pity, because I really enjoy the smell. I’ll keep testing it.

Cacao Porcelana has a totally representative name. It’s a dry cocoa, subtly sweet with bitter, smoky, boozy, and floral touches. It’s not the typical gourmand scent; it’s extremely sensual and addictive for me. Dark, mysterious, elegant… The moment I smell it, I think it could perfectly be the scent of Rhys, one of the protagonists of the ACOTAR saga, and the literary crush of all the readers, lol. A very well-combined set of notes, definitely. I’m a woman and I’d wear it easily, but if I smell this on a man, I get the urge to bite him… It’s totally unisex. I’m in love.

Cacao Porcelana has a name that fits perfectly. It’s a dry cocoa, subtly sweet with bitter, smoky, boozy, and floral touches. It’s not a typical gourmand; it’s extremely sensual and addictive. Dark, mysterious, and elegant… It makes me think it could be the scent of Rhys, one of the main characters in ACOTAR, the literary crush of all the readers, lol. Very well-combined notes. I’m a woman and I’d wear it easily, but if I smell it on a man, I get the urge to bite him… Totally unisex. I’m in love.
