French Coffee EDP-50ML (1.65Oz)

Skin chemistry plays such a role in how fragrances smell on people. I was worried about the bad reviews but I know food smells based in vanilla work on me. I love the chocolate one so I tried. On me I get a subtle coffee more like a flavored cappuccino. It's pleasant and I i get a very sweet almost praline scent on the dry down. Its not as long lasting as the chocolate one [which people always say smells like brownies on my skin] but it's cheap enough to reapply whenever I have to. Layering it with a vanilla lotion really makes it's a café treat. *** I had to update this because it actually does last for hours. It ends up becoming a skin scent and I don't know notice it, but friends who have met up with me in the afternoon after I put on in the morning could smell it when they hugged me. Or even when I was walking around their homes and they got close enough to get a with. It also lingers on clothing and smells like the most delicious marshmallow praline chocolatey yummy business lol. It's fantastic. But it definitely is about skin chemistry because a friend who loved it on me, tried it on herself and she said it smelled awful. And we literally put on a spray one after the other from the same bottle. If your skin hates this, then that's unfortunate, but I do recommend you giving it a try if vanilla is in general tend to work well for you. I also layer this with the chocolate musk one and it's just so good. But more of a skin scent towards the end of the day as opposed to just wafting off of you.

Ooo no. Nope. No no. This has a very strong, dark coffee scent. The coffee in this is so dark and strong, it almost smells like skunk. Know what I mean? How sometimes extremely strong coffee can smell skunkish? Woo wow, it doesn’t smell good at all. It smells like coffee that has been sitting in the bottom of a coffee pot, thats been accidentally left on all day, and it’s scorched to the bottom of the pot. Yes, just like that. I don’t smell any praline, cocoa, cream, vanilla, milk, or anything sweet, or soft. Nothing. It is not sweet at all! It’s definitely NOT as good as Choco Musk. Don’t waste your money on this. It’s not a good purchase. If you’re thinking you’re going to get a similar scent to Choco Musk, but with a little coffee note added to it, it’s not like that. This has zero similarities to Choco Musk. I do NOT recommend this perfume. There’s nothing good about it, and I don’t know HOW other people can leave a good review for this perfume. Because there is absolutely no possible way someone could like this. Nope.

Coffee 👏🏻 Shop 👏🏻 In 👏🏻 A 👏🏻 Bottle. PERIOD. If you like a rich, dark coffee scent with a touch of cream, you are gonna LOVE this perfume. It's so rich and creamy, it's the exact scent of a cappuccino. Sooooo good. I pair it with Choco Musk to add an extra touch of ~ sweetness~ and it is INCREDIBLE. If you aren't into the scent of coffee, this probably isn't for you, because it is quite strong. But if you do like the smell of coffee, and you wanna smell like a coffee shop, this is TOTALLY for you. ☕️☕️☕️ Hope this review was helpful 😊

Longevity and value are great, but I do notice that the smell is very sweet. It doesn't have the same punch as other coffee perfumes I've tried, it smells like a creamy latte with a loud milk note, less like a freshly brewed coffee. It's still warm and lovely though!

My first impression of this French coffee perfume was mixed. The opening notes were harsh, with an unpleasantly rotten and bitter scent. Fortunately, it's not overpoweringly strong, which is a small consolation. As the day went on, the scent transformed, but even in the dry down phase, it retained an ancient, almost musty aroma. I usually enjoy fragrances that others perceive as "older and musky" btw! However, the perfume does eventually evolve into a more pleasant scent. After some time, it settled into a gourmand black coffee with cream fragrance. At this point, it becomes a skin scent, not projecting much beyond a close radius. Curiously, when I asked my dad to sniff my wrist during this stage, he initially thought it smelled like pancakes. After I mentioned it was a coffee fragrance, he could identify it, describing it as a very sweet coffee with milk—delicious in his opinion, he likes milk in fragrance and in general. Personally, I'm not a fan of the sharp and unpleasant opening. I prefer my perfumes to smell good right from the start. I'm hoping that with time, as the perfume sits and macerates, the initial harshness will mellow out, the overall experience will improve and the yummy dry down will project more. For $8 Im not mad.

Smells just like good coffee. I'd get it again

UPDATING AFTER A WHILE OF USE!! so, all the good things i had to say about the scent still stand (see original review below). however, i feel like that scent doesn’t last even through the hour :( it disappears from your skin so quickly!! i’ve tried so many things to make it last longer but nothing works, im genuinely so disappointed. this smells SO good but is effectively useless. such a shame.. i love its scent so much ;( ORIGINAL REVIEW: i don’t understand any of the complaints this has, i think this perfume smells DELICIOUS. it’s like a VERY sweet coffee, but honestly if you were to call it some other dessert i’d 100% believe you. not exactly what i was expecting, but i love it anyway. it smells more like a toffee or something to me. it has some strong caramel-y notes, almost. or a latte with some VERY toasty cookie-like notes. overall definitely recommend this. it may not have a true coffee scent but it does smell super nice nonetheless. one day will find a true coffee scent, but for the time being this is great :)
