you man, you just notice once and for all: you enjoy tea pure, and coffee with milk! But no, people prefer to drink their coffee pure and black, and the tea milky. But you know that as a (hopefully) regular reader of mine here anyway, as well as that I occasionally freak out if someone should dare to pour milk into tea. Coffee always sounds good, doesn't it? Even though I am more of a tea scent fan, I like to drink both coffee and tea. I hope that the heat of the last few days (and especially today) hasn't made you too hot, and I found the weather unbearable too, but you know I don't like summer in general, so I curse any weather that is too hot, aaaargh! DĪnyway, today I'm coming to a brand I hadn't heard of before: Téo Cabanel. And I bet you just had to smile, didn't you? D Because while reading these lines your boredom has already flown away and you enjoy the description of a new fragrance from me. Hiya! Here I am again and save the evening with the help of a new commentary. I expected this fragrance to be a brown warm sweater, but it turned out to be a white silk shirt. But generally, perfumes don’t last so much on my skin, probably because I m a walking nerve. I had to spray 3 times during a day in order to smell it all day on me. The longevity and silage are moderate on me and that’s a bit disappointing because I really cannot get enough of this scent. Overall, all the notes are so beautifully blended together and I get a sweet "boozy-like" gourmand. The milk, butter, caramel, vanilla and tonka bean give a sweetness and creaminess to it, while the florals (Bulgarian rose and heliotrope) add a floral warmth. It is a smooth almost silky coffee note, like the sense of coffee in a caramel macchiato. The coffee, is not the dark nutty coffee we are used to and that is so good because you don’t smell like a walking coffee machine. Immediately after, the coffee note with hints of cinnamon gets in the game. After a bit, this intense citrus smoothens up but it never totally goes away, giving the fragrance a slight booziness. It opens citrusy with lemon and mandarin (tangerine) and at first I was like “did they put another perfume inside? I was promised a gourmand”. This perfume has a very sensual, elegant and charming gourmand smell that you keep sniffing it because you cant get enough of it. Caroline Ilacqua inherited the perfume house and as she states “I want a perfumery that is joyful, uncomplicated, accessible, transparent and clean. Theodore Cabanels story in perfumery dates back in 1893.
