Coffee and hazelnut under a southern Italian sun.
Bergamot, neroli and red pepper open sharp, arabica coffee, hazelnut cream, jasmine, orange flower absolute and rose fill the heart, and amberwood, ambroxan, vanilla and musk close it warm.
Perfumed by: Luca Maffei
KSI Take: Maffei keeps the coffee bitter rather than sugary, and the red pepper up top stops the hazelnut collapsing into praline. It is a gourmand with real structure, though the ambroxan in the base pushes harder than the composition needs.
