Coffee O Boticario for women

My BFF use it sometimes at school. It smells wonderfull at her, but not my kind of perfume. O Boticario actually surprises me, cause I generally don't like their perfumes (They are too ordinary).

Minha mae usa e eu amo!

I was so excited when I heard about a fragrance with coffee! I pictured a creamy vanilla base with the fantastic Brazilian coffee note. How wrong I was!! Yes, vanilla is there, and so is the coffee, but the final result is awful!! Not a comfort fragrance like Lostmarch’s Lann-Ael, or something slightly exotic, like Memo’s Siwa. To my nose, it smells exactly like if someone had dropped coffee on Britney Spears Fantasy. Overpowering, cheap smelling and headache inducing. Staying power is excellent though. I scrubbed it off hard, took a shower, and still can smell it. I’m more than disappointed, O Boticario!

It's sooo yummy. It reminds me of 212 sexy, but it's softer and more delicate - maybe it´s similar because of the vanilla. mcelferr said it all. I can smell the jasmine and the touch of toffee caramel. I'll buy it soon.

* Update *
I take it back! OMG. I've tested it on my skin. The first notes are fine, sweet, inoffensive. After a while I can smell something similar to cappuccino. Nice indeed. The drydown is AWFUL. At least on my skin. It's too cloying, sweet, ugh. Hate it. :(

i am getting more and more surprised with the house of boticario.
lately, they are making perfumes not "normal likable perfumes" for the big masses, but more in a sense of a true perfumer spirit.
a potion that can have a amazing sillage, with something enigmatic to it.
this is the kind of stuff i would be calling a modern classic, a spicy modern oriental.

this could easily be a oriental woody, but on me it grows more in to a floral oriental with a very unisex note of pure coffe. wich i love.
attention, this is not the coffe you can easily get on a coffe shop and ask for a croissant to make the perfect combination for your apetite, but if there were an incense that was dryed down with grains of coffee, you could ge a very close sniff to this one. this is perfect, my only complain is that i wish they would make in a edp edition...

personally i can only wear it on coldest days here, it reveles itself so beautifully. again i am surprised and aplause any brazilian that dare to wear this at the hot and tropical climate they have. well, maybe at the night might be colder, right?!

p.s. the hubby LOVES IT

Maybe Trussardi Inside is a better choice . It smells of Coffee and in a good way.

"Cheapo" to Brazilian perfumistas; to the general populace, it's a pretty nice local scent. The line is very clear around here, there isn't even one scent of local manufacturing that can be really put in the "great" category.

The good
Quite nice cappuccino there but not overly foody, lasting until mid heart notes.

The bad
Low versatility but maybe not for national tastes: gourmands are loved here, and most people wear scents for "special occasions" only. Not suited for warm weather.
Kinda linear.

The ugly
Poor quality, it smells clearly of food vanilla flavouring one can buy in grocery stores, therefore quickly cloying.
It gave me a light headache despite lasting very short (EDC), which was funny: one hour maybe?

I've found a new interest in gourmands with this one but it's a bit too pedestrian. Lovely smell but I can't really recommend this for anyone with a serious interest in perfumery.

I am desperate to try this fragrance but it is not being sold in the U.S. or Colombia - I reside in both places. If anyone wants to sell or trade theirs please write me. I have more perfume than indicated on this site, they're just not in the database.

I bought this fragrance last july. I was on vacation, just looking around at O Boticario. When I saw the beautiful golden square bottle named CoffeeWoman,I couldn't resist. Coffee? What' s it all about? I really had a surprise when the saleslady sprayed it on my wrist.I was expecting the smell of roasted coffee, but It's not that. I felt myself under a coffee tree. If you have had the opportunity to smell coffee flowers and coffee seeds while they are still red like cherries you'll know what I mean. It's deliciously sweet like crushed red apple peel and soft jasmine. It dries down very warm, with a touch of toffee caramel. Perfect for colder days. It's a pity they don't have EDP.
