L'Artisan Parfumeur Batucada is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Karine Vinchon-Spehner and Elisabeth Maier. Batucada opens with Lime, Mint, and Rum, settles into a heart of Tiare Flower and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Salt, Sea Water, and Coconut. L'Artisan Parfumeur's Batucada carries a Favourite verdict, a marine-led wear.

Batucada is a divisive, quirky summer scent. Some adore its cocktail-like vivacity while others are put off by a 'sweaty' or 'fishy' note. Truly a love-it-or-hate-it tropical escape that sparks strong opinions.

This is a quintessential summer holiday scent. Its boozy, salty, and tropical character is too relaxed for formal or office settings, but it excels in casual, warm weather situations and even sport due to its refreshing nature. Many reviews highlight its 'vacation in a bottle' vibe.

About

Imagine a vibrant, salty mojito enjoyed by the sea. This opens with a zesty, almost boozy hit of lime and fresh mint, quickly followed by the creamy, exotic sweetness of tiare flower and ylang-ylang. The base anchors this tropical journey with a distinctive marine and salty accord, drying down to a delicate, subtly sweet coconut skin scent.
