What does Cacao Aztèque (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, with summer well behind. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Votes split almost evenly between feminine and masculine, so it sits comfortably in between.

The top opens with black pepper, pink pepper and cardamom for a spicy start. In the heart, rum absolute, orchid and tuberose absolute add a sweet floral note. The base dries down to leather, cocoa absolute and sandalwood, woody and warm. Tom Ford Violet Blonde and Laborynthia Sandalwood have a close profile.
