Maison Tahité - Officine Creative Profumi Cafe Gourmand is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Stéphanie Bakouche. Cafe Gourmand opens with Milk and Saffron, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Coffee, and Hazelnut, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Sage. Maison Tahité - Officine Creative Profumi's Cafe Gourmand carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag. Some find it a sophisticated, creamy coffee dream, while others get a metallic, sharp, or even medicinal scent. Definitely a 'try before you buy' situation, as skin chemistry is a big player here.

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.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Cafe Gourmand opens with a milky, spiced saffron leading the charge, rather than a bold coffee hit. As it settles, a creamy hazelnut coffee emerges, mellowed by earthy patchouli and balanced by the dry, grounding tones of vetiver, sandalwood, and a touch of musk. There's a subtle aromatic sage note throughout, creating a complex, warm, and slightly woody gourmand experience that eschews overt sweetness.
