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.

Built on vanilla and lactonic - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

This is a rich, powerful gourmand, too intense for polite office wear but perfect for an intimate date night or casual indulgence. Its dessert-like character makes it unsuitable for formal events or exercise.

About

Carmen Macchiato opens with a rich, boozy punch of amaretto and deep coffee, spiced perfectly with cinnamon. The heart is a delectable bakery counter, overflowing with creamy meringue, dark chocolate, and crunchy hazelnut cookies. As it settles, it morphs into an even sweeter, lactonic base of brown sugar, white chocolate, warm milk, and smooth vanilla caramel. It's an unashamedly dessert-like composition from start to finish.
