Black Vetyver Cafe

by Jo Malone

Jo Malone London Black Vetyver Cafe is a Cologne launched in 2003, created by Jo Malone. Black Vetyver Cafe opens with Coffee and Citrus, settles into a heart of Pepper, Nutmeg, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sequoia, Sandalwood, and Incense. Jo Malone London's Black Vetyver Cafe carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, elegantly composed coffee and vetiver dream, but it's a fleeting whisper. Many adore its scent profile, yet its significant performance issues are a constant, heartbreaking lament among enthusiasts.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

The warm spicy, woody accords and general consensus of subtle projection make it suitable for close-quarters like dates and casual wear. Its notorious lack of longevity and sillage prevents it from being ideal for formal events or sports, while being just acceptable enough for an office environment.

About

Imagine a rich, dark roasted coffee, subtly spiced with nutmeg and pepper, then enveloped in the earthy, woody embrace of vetiver and sequoia. A wisp of incense adds a contemplative edge, while vanilla brings a touch of creamy sweetness to this otherwise dry, sophisticated blend.
