Que Chimba!

Name: Que Chimba! Extrait
Brand: Lorenzo Pazzaglia

Lorenzo Pazzaglia Que Chimba! is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Lorenzo Pazzaglia. Que Chimba! opens with Cinnamon, Clove, Ginger, and Star Anise, settles into a heart of Rose, Heliotrope, Orchid, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Lorenzo Pazzaglia's Que Chimba! carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Que Chimba! is a divisive, unapologetically bold scent that some will adore and others will find unbearable. It's a loud, vibrant tropical party with an unexpected spicy kick - definitely not for the faint of heart, but addictive for those who connect with its wild energy.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best For:

Date Casual

Its exceptional strength and prominent sillage make Que Chimba! too overwhelming for an office scenario. However, its bold, sensual, and playful character, combined with its tropical and spicy notes, makes it perfect for dates and evening casual wear, as noted by several reviewers. It's a bit too much for formal events, and certainly not suited for sport.

About

Que Chimba! kicks off with an explosion of bright, juicy tropical fruits - passionfruit, peach, and guava - brightened by a zesty hint of ginger. Then, a distinct star anise note cuts through the sweetness, adding a sophisticated, almost liquorice-like edge, mingling with warm cinnamon and clove. As it evolves, smooth tobacco and creamy tonka bean emerge, softened by orchid and a touch of rose. The base lingers with rich woods like sandalwood and cedar, enveloped in a warm, inviting blend of vanilla, amber, benzoin, and a hint of earthy patchouli, creating a sensual, long-lasting drydown.
