Pasteis de Nata

Pasteis de Nata is a gourmand unisex perfume from Ô Médina Perfumery, in its Collection Crazy, sold in a 30ml bottle. It is named after the Portuguese custard tart, and the house describes the generosity of a pastry fresh from the oven: the richness of butter and cream, the smooth sweetness of vanilla and a subtle toasted touch, with a creamy, melting trail. The technical block gives a short pyramid of toast on top, milk in the heart and vanilla in the base, and the product text also names melted butter and creamy cream. Those two are placed in the heart with the milk. As a food-inspired scent it should be soft, milky and edible rather than floral or woody, closer to a bakery counter than to a classic perfume. The house says it suits every season and every occasion, and is made for fans of sweet, enveloping smells. It is priced at EUR 37 for 30ml, slightly above the house's usual EUR 35. No perfumer is named and no launch year is given. The product text states no concentration, but the label printed on the bottle in the shop photo reads Extrait de parfum. The house gives no figures for longevity or projection and there are no independent wearer reviews, so the performance scores follow the format and the house's description. A comforting choice for cooler months and relaxed evenings.
