Hazelnut Praline is a fragrance as irresistible as the first spoon of creamy praline. Launched in 2025, it was inspired by the authentic recipe and begins with golden sugar slowly caramelizing over roasted hazelnuts, melting into a smooth, velvety paste that glows with warmth. A swirl of chocolate spread richness blends with a whisper of secret spices, creating a scent that feels both delicious and dangerously addictive. Hazelnut Praline is sweet temptation captured in a bottle; indulgent, comforting and impossible to forget. Hazelnut Praline features notes of hazelnut, chocolate spread, spices and sugar. Hazelnut Praline is an eau de parfum, edp.
THEODOROS KALOTINIS HAZELNUT PRALINE REVIEWS
Fragrantica: "Spray generously after shower, slip into a hooded terry robe, and sit wrapped in a hazelnut-chocolate cocoon, melting into comfort and a childlike kind of joy. You are your own sweetest little donut (leave your woody monsters and stern chypres for the office — along with your social masks)."
Fragrantica: "Nutella batter on a biscuit, very photorealistic."
Fragrantica: "The opening is nutty and savory, but I also get something else that makes it interesting. It is a floral/clean/fresh note that isn't listed, but it lightens up the gourmand notes so it's not so linear. It has more of a salty sweetness than sugary sweetness. I will probably just enjoy the sample, but it has the potential to grow on me. Edit** In the drydown the floral/fresh/clean fragrant note that I can't put my finger on comes to the forefront with the gourmand notes fading to the back. It works with the fragrance and I'm enjoying the scent bubble. It isn't as gourmand as I thought, more perfumey/gourmand. Edit*** Just as I thought, it grew on me so am waiting for my decant. lol. This is truly a unique fragrance, a perfect balance between foodie gourmand and perfumey gourmand."
Fragrantica: "This is definitely my favorite fragrance from this year's TK Christmas collection, although of the three it's the least Christmassy. Hazelnut Praline smells exactly like the name suggests. Most people will think of it as Nutella but I'm most reminded of Milka's Noisette milk chocolate with creamy hazelnut paste, or the nougat-like Merci chocolate. The scent is intensely nutty, and the chocolate is milky but not too sweet. After a while, you can smell the dry cocoa more but with the nuts still present. It's not a heavy scent; it has a surprisingly spacious, light, and fresh feel. I especially recommend it to men. I have a feeling it would smell more interesting and masculine on men's skin. Longevity is quite good, lasting for several hours, but it could project a bit better. After an hour it's close to the skin. Despite this I highly recommend trying it out because the composition is very interesting. 8/10"
Fragrantica: "Amazing fragrance, the price is great for such a niche beautiful scent. Starts very straight dark dry chocolate realistic similar to chocolate greedy from montale. Then changes into a sweet almond chocolate refined scent. VERY wearable, smells classy and expensive. not overly sweet at all, you will not be smelling like a bakery. This is GOOD STUFF."
Fragrantica: "This starts off as a sweet hazelnut, then quickly turns to a more savory dried almond skin. The notes listed are very accurate to what it smells like. While I do like it and find it unique, this is not my favorite of TK's gourmand offerings. I would not compare this to Le Gourmand by Jousset at all. Le Gourmand is milky, chocolatey, fatty, edible. This is drier, nuttier, more savory, and spiced with a hint of cocoa."
Fragrantica: "This is surprisingly my favorite of the three new releases, the opening is a realistic hazelnut spread, as you would expect, but I find it different than the Jousset in that it stays less heavy and lacks the "rosted bread" accord of Le Gourmand. It is definitely for the gourmand lovers but the base of this one is what makes it really unique, it´s so pleasant on skin and when the head notes of hazelnut and cacao fade it becomes more woody, think cedarwood and iso e-super, which leaves a sort of airy freshness I cannot quite explain. Super pleasant and easy to wear, don´t be afraid to try this on skin, even if you are not typically a gourmand lover. It´s stunning!"
