Maison Tahité - Officine Creative Profumi Cacao2 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by David Maruitte. Cacao2 opens with Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Cacao Pod, Amber, Cedar, and Vetiver. Maison Tahité - Officine Creative Profumi's Cacao2 carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one is a real Marmite scent - you’ll either adore its dark, realistic cocoa profile or be repulsed by its earthy, almost-mouldy undertones. It’s a sophisticated gourmand for those who like their chocolate rich and bitter, not sweet and syrupy.

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.

About

Cacao2 opens with a sharp, dry hit of realistic cacao powder, underscored by a whisper of warm cinnamon. As it settles, labdanum and rich amber emerge, creating a boozy, resinous depth that prevents it from becoming overly sweet. The base reveals a woody blend of vetiver and cedar, grounding the dark chocolate with an earthy, smoky quality, while vanilla and benzoin add a subtle, creamy warmth in the background.
