What does Café de Dua smell like?

The notes have no top, heart and base split, so it reads as one continuous dessert. Colombian coffee and cocoa stay clear throughout, while caramel and maple syrup soften and sweeten them. Biscuit, lemon cake and Italian pastry add the warmth of something fresh from the oven, Bourbon vanilla and amber form a creamy base, and bitter almond brings out a mildly spicy edge. It suits those who enjoy sweet gourmand scents; Theodoros Kalotinis Coffee Addict and Scents by MOST Morning Coffee have a close profile.
