Floral · Sweet · Gourmand
Annette Neuffer Arabica is a unisex scent that settles best into cooler seasons and evening hours, pairing coffee and flowers over a sweet, spicy base.
Most voters pick fall and winter, and choose it mainly for evenings and leisure time. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate; voters read it as slightly more feminine, though many also see it as masculine.
It opens with black pepper, bergamot and nutmeg, with green bitter orange keeping the first moments bright. In the heart, coffee absolute, coffee blossom absolute, rose and jasmine come forward. The base of myrrh, patchouli, vanilla and sandalwood gives it a sweet, resinous, woody warmth.
