Maison Tahité - Officine Creative Profumi Cacao Libertine is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by David Maruitte. Cacao Libertine opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Rose, Tuberose, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Cacao Pod, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Benzoin. Maison Tahité - Officine Creative Profumi's Cacao Libertine carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a polarising gourmand-leaning scent. Some find it a magical, rich chocolate-orange patchouli dream, while others are underwhelmed by the blend or performance, detecting mostly boozy patchouli with little cacao. Not for the faint of heart - or those expecting a true cacao solinote.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its bold, rich, and boozy character makes it better suited for evenings out, particularly dates, where its warmth and sensuality can shine without overwhelming. For similar reasons, it's less ideal for office wear or sports, but can work for more relaxed casual settings or formal events that embrace a statement fragrance.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Cacao Libertine explodes with a fizzy citrus top, making way for a dense, spicy heart of cardamom-laced rose and tuberose. The real showstopper is the base, a rich concoction of dark cacao pod, gooey caramel, earthy patchouli, and warm benzoin and vanilla. It evokes a journey from bright zest to a deep, dark indulgence, with a warm, resinous trail.
