Extrait de Parfum
Fulton & Roark Calle Ocho Extrait de Parfum is a sweet, gourmand unisex scent that warms cinnamon, tobacco and dark chocolate into one dense, spicy blend.
Ceylonese cinnamon, orange zest and rum give a spicy, faintly boozy warmth first. Dark chocolate and tonka bean sweeten it, while tobacco, labdanum and Australian sandalwood hold a woody, resinous, slightly earthy base throughout. Night-blooming jasmine and musk soften the richness.
Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good, and although the sample is small, the picture is consistent. With its sweet, spicy build it suits cooler weather and evenings more easily. It reads as wearable by men and women alike. Anyone after a similar profile could also look at Byredo Havana Tonka and Odette Parfum Co. Grand Battement.
