Tonic note: Vanilla
Dominant note: Cacao
Sub Dominant: Rhum
The Aztecs used an orchid, the vanilla, to enrich a very thick drink made from cacao, for the nobles and warriors known as the xocoatl.

The Libertine view:
A great fragrance roundup wouldn't be complete without Xocoatl by the house of Fueguia 1833. Bursting with notes of vanilla, coco and rum, it’s the rich, complicated scent, with an understated sweetness that is perfect for the new season.

Sophisticated chocolate
I first experienced this scent in an online session and it was stunning. The beautiful packaging and the story behind thus fragrance only add to the rich chocolate mystique.

Cool aromatic amber
This was not what I expected and I am a bit disappointed. It was described as warm and chocolatey but it was not really that. It was a very aromatic, boozy and dry amber. Hardly any sweetness so if you want hot chocolate, try first. Quality is excellent and packaging is sustainable.

not what I expected but oh so yummy
I read many reviews regarding this perfume and had to try it. I was surprised at the top note being cloves. Quite intense at the beginning but settled into a light cocoa/ nutmeg/ marzipan scent. The nutmeg scent was the longest lasting. Nice but I don't think I would invest in a whole bottle.
