From the brand - "An ode to chocolate and all its incredible facets, from the sweetest to the spiciest. The citrus opening is crisp and appealing and soon declines into spicy territories that go wonderfully with the carrier notes of dark chocolate and white chocolate. Manly hints of leather and patchouli accompany those of chocolate during drydown, while notes of vanilla and amber hatch the gentler, sweeter soul of the fragrance that is capable of seducing and intriguing even the most distracted people. Choco Raptor is a particularly challenging and characterful composition and needs people who can accept its fragrant challenge."
Lorenzo Pazzaglia fell in love with the smells from his father's kitchen, becoming a chef and then started studying the smells and eventually creating perfumes based on those much-loved smells.
Fragrantica - "it reminds me of dark chocolate and truffles. it’s dark, bitter, and earthen, and very strong."
