Blind-bought this because of the name "cacao" and thought it would smell like my hometown, where there is a chocolate factory. At first, I honestly disliked this perfume. I was taken aback because many on social media described it as sweet, and I couldn't detect that. I let it sit, and it turned out better than the first few sprays. Weird strong initial scent (something new to my nose kinda way not really a bad way) that is good as it dries down. This is not for everyone; girly girls might not like this. Not a safe blind buy.

Too masculine for women. I think men will love this. But the longevity, projection and sillage is perfect. I sprayed it in my room and the smell is still there after 10hrs.

Sweet, smoky and VERY spicy. Similar to Crivelli’s Oud Cadenza, but less harsh on the opening and the incense is a bit toned down. Dry down is phenomenal as it settles into a spicy, sweet, oudy scent.

Longevity is easily 10+ hours with 5-8 hours of silage. Definitely not for everyone as few friends told me it smells like a religious temple, due to the incense and myrrh.
