Smoky Chocolate Fragrances

French Cowboy Mezcal Chocolat Has Notes of Chili Pepper & Salted Lime

French Cowboy Mezcal Chocolat is a captivating eau de parfum that's simultaneously sweet, spicy, smoky and layered with contrast. This perfume makes a bold first impression with a shot of chili pepper heat tempered by zesty, salted lime and the smoky-sweet complexity of fruity mezcal. The heart of Mezcal Chocolat reveals deep cacao absolute that adds rich, bittersweet intensity, creating a dangerously seductive contrast between spice and sweetness. Finally, the scent settles into a warm, intoxicating base of smoky vanilla and creamy woods.

Notably, this fragrance uses cacao absolute in place of a synthetic cacao accord, adds depth with an ultra-rare rhum extract, which is as expensive as some of perfumery’s finest iris, and is concentrated at 32% perfume oils and aged for four weeks.
