Authentic beast: invades everything with coffee caramel at the start and pure coffee at the drydown. In enclosed spaces, from a distance it smells like soy sauce and curry after half an hour; up close, just coffee. Recommended only for coffee lovers and those who want nuclear projection. It smelled of coffee on the streets and in stores. Do not use in enclosed spaces (class, dates, meetings); it gave my relatives a headache. Ideal for outdoors, large conventions, and intense cold. Perfect for canceling exams.

The hype was a bit overblown. If I have to pick an invasive ‘beast,’ Perverso wins: it fills more space. Here, it’s maxed-out bitter, smoky coffee with dark chocolate and spices; the caramel is more toasted than sweet. I didn’t detect the curry. It’s cozier compared to Perverso, which is more extreme. Good to try or decant if you want to feel rebellious in the cold, but not a bottle buy. Nuclear performance, it leaves without asking permission. Edit: lasts 24 hours unwashed.

The exact scent left in the filter of a freshly used Italian coffee machine. If you like that smell, you’ll love it. It’s strong: I store perfumes in a cabinet with the door closed and in a box; this one comes without a box but with a velvet pouch, yet I put it in nylon because it smells just by being there. I checked to see if it was broken. Very invasive. Do not recommend buying blind unless you love coffee. Forget about heat. 8/10.

Tested in a decant, it’s a nuclear coffee bomb, one of my top 3 most invasive scents alongside Red Tobacco and Megamare. Only for extreme cold. Perhaps only for collectors due to the price and low versatility. It’s very realistic, like coffee residue in old cans or a Starbucks coffee shop. If you love rainy days reading by the window, it’s a pleasant option. Otherwise, I don’t see it for daily use.

A total olfactory experience. Imagine an Indian restaurant: you order a cappuccino, add cocoa, and it smells like chocolate and coffee with a caramel touch. But it also brings the smell of the kitchen, curry, and soy sauce, mixing with the coffee. When you walk out, people say you smell like coffee and curry; you say it’s Followed. You stay like that until you wash very well with detergent.

This is the most potent coffee perfume I own: a deeply roasted coffee with dark notes. The projection is brutal—the scent hits before you do, but it smells like maple syrup mixed with coffee. Lasts all day on skin and weeks on clothes (I wore it on a leather jacket for almost a month before washing it). An excellent choice for coffee lovers.
RLarcos
Top-tier coffee blast. Unlike Coffee Addict, it doesn’t smell like caramel, but like dregs and ground coffee, with a powdery texture. It has sweetness, but it doesn’t dominate the coffee. Perhaps I would have preferred less sugar to better balance the bitterness, but it’s very well executed.
uriel.camacho
The most potent coffee fragrance in my collection. A brutal dark roast with projection that hits before you do, smelling like maple syrup mixed with coffee. Lasts all day on skin and weeks on clothes (one jacket still smelled it almost a month later). Perfect for coffee lovers.

The most nuclear performance that exists, by far. Literally monstrous; you have to box it up and put it in the closet so the whole house doesn’t smell (even with the cap off). Insane.
