Pain Au Chocolat is an intimate bakery-inspired scent, evoking early morning pastry making and warm chocolate croissants. A morning still holding its breath. The hush of dawn spilling through lace curtains. Fingers dusted in flour and sugar. Soft layers, folded again and again, holding just enough sweetness to comfort you. It is a creamy gourmand with notes of salt, butter, dark cocoa, chocolate ganache, charred wood, vanilla, milk and puff pastry accord. Pain au Chocolat is an eau de parfum, edp.
Fragrantica: "I blind bought this and am so glad I did! This is my first Odette scent and I’m so impressed. This is stunning, easily the nicest and most photorealistic chocolate I have tried! I don’t necessarily get dough as a distinctive scent but the notes just work with each other beautifully to create this soft, buttery, yummy chocolatey scent. The chocolate starts out soft, pretty, light and milky but quickly changes to a yummy rich chocolate ganache. It lasts surprisingly long on me (7-8 hours) and by the end of the day it is a stunning but intimate vanilla milk smell. I don’t have a bedtime perfume but this could certainly be it. Roll on autumn/winter, I can’t wait to wear this whilst being wrapped up in a big jumper, watching the leaves fall in the park, eating a pain au chocolat of course."
Fragrantica: "This beauty starts out as a realistic pain au chocolat: melting soft pastry, rich and oozing salty dark chocolate, still warm from the oven. Then it turns to a gentle milky vanilla with a hint of violets. I’m back at my regular table at the Cafe des Phares when I lived in Paris in 1999, eating a morning pain au chocolat on my way to work while watching people stroll by. Maybe there’s even a handsome waiter to flirt with? Either way, this is my happy place, and Pain Au Chocolat is a stunning Autumn/Winter perfume by Odette Parfum Co."
