Sweet tooth?

I like to have restrained gourmandis in my collection, as they offer a nice balance to the tart floral chypre, woody amber scent or aquatic citrus freshness.
Pleasure without regret and calories, although the fight against the latter really should not determine our lives, it's just too short for that!

If I look at my bottle so, then I have probably caught a subspecies of Choco Truffle, because mine has the addition ZEST. So BELGIAN CHOCO ZEST TRUFFLE.
New? So it will probably be.

We all know many vitamins are in spinach and broccoli, but chocolate (dark with higher cocoa content) also contains important polyphenols and flavanoids and also de-stressing catechins. The cocoa bean is, so to speak, a true fountain of health for metabolism, blood circulation and well-being. It is like everything in life: enjoyed in moderation (not to be confused with masses) chocolate simply does us good! A happiness maker.

Belgian Choco Zest Truffle starts fresh and orangy (in the first moment I had to think very briefly of Aventus), tangerine - and orange zests pile up on the plate. The fruits themselves lie underneath in their own juice and form a liqueur-like liquid. Hidden, I smell some plum. Toasted almonds in a vanilla coating now join in, but not sweet, subtly restrained. And then the appearance of the tart cocoa begins, at first quietly and then becoming louder and louder, melding with vanilla and almond results in a dark praline note with a high orange content, which also remains until the end.

I can't detect any overemphasized sweetness here, but rather the attempted marriage of tangy fruitiness with dark cocoa. I don't smell caramel. This Gourmandi he is but no fragrance for all days or for the office, but rather an olfactory Trösterli in need of cuddling and in the cold (inside as well as outside).

Next to me is a bar of Ritter Sport, the one with higher cocoa content (40%). Golden treasure.
I can only recommend.

A piece still goes and tenderly melting I enjoy it - hmmmm . delicious!
(How many there will be today, I can not predict)

Today already geschokoladt ?.....

That's a bit of an insolence

The completely unnecessary foil is already removed.

Gently open the box and open the lid completely to suddenly jump out of the blue, as you forgot to take the finished coffee from the kitchen with you.

30 seconds later you are sitting on your couch in the living room again and this time was enough.

An intense, very engaging liqueur note is the perfect counter to this, which brings a wonderful, powerful touch of fully ripe plums and you first give in to this wonderful scent with your eyes closed.

"Can you see them too - The little light and dark brown, slightly shiny and crisp looking chocolates?"

Some of the pralines have very fine white ornamental lines which, when smelled closer, give off a delicate powdery aura of almond.

"Hands off - you can't take a chocolate until you've finished reading the comment!"

I can hear your O - tone: "That's a shameless thing!" :-)

"But I'm a nicer guy, so take a nip."

Put the chocolate in your mouth and let it stay on your tongue for a moment.

Melting, creamy milk chocolate has been combined with a very fine dark dark chocolate to a wonderful taste explosion.

The famous cracking can be heard and even felt and pure euphoria is spreading.

The chocolate is filled! :-)

A fine, viscous core of sweet and quite discreetly buttery - salty caramel flows through your taste buds.

"'N real treat 'ne?!"

At the very end, in the last 3 hours, what remains is a fine, sweet - creamy, fluffy-looking Bourbon - vanilla and still a very delicate touch of Belgian chocolate and one repeatedly stunned to discover:

"The pack is always empty way too fast."

Allow me to introduce: Belgian Choco Truffle.

In total the fragrance lasts 8 hours on my skin.

The Sillage is conceived from the outset in such a way that one is perceived very clearly at one arm's length and this is maintained also 3.5 hours in such a way, before it minimizes itself in quiet steps, until the smell finally completely fades out
I would like to express my sincere thanks to our perfume "Cocinera" for the sample.

No one's looking for it...!

Truffles... another one of those things that used to confuse me. Truffles are mushrooms that are not eaten in large quantities like mushrooms, but serve more as spices, which of course is probably due to the exorbitant prices. Back then, many years ago, I didn't really know what truffles were and read a little about them. And as it is so, reading about these mushrooms or watching documentaries about them, one picked up some information, such as the best way to search for truffles (with truffle pigs), that truffles are worth their weight in gold and that even truffles are said to work like a pheromone in the ladies...

But what had always confused me was that there are also chocolates called truffles. Today I know that they are called truffles only because they look like mushroom truffles. And not, as I once thought, that the chocolates contain truffles. So I once asked a good friend of mine many, many years ago if it was true,... and even if I am not so sure (or rather I remember correctly), I think she probably said yes, that is, that the chocolates would contain real truffles. But not because she would have been ignorant as well, but because she likes to make fun of me every now and then, and every now and then she even manages to do so! In the past she had even convinced me to pronounce certain terms (I am a foreigner here...) completely wrong, terms like musk or something like that... (I thought then, you pronounce it with a long "o", as if you would say Moohschus or something like that...)!

Sometimes she even does cruel things, such as putting fish eyes under MY EAT when we eat together, and sometimes she even succeeds, bööörks how disgusting one! (Thank God I had noticed that in time because she had betrayed herself, because she had stared at me while I was eating to see how I would react... and that made me suspicious :D)
Come to think of it, she's really mean!! So I have to think of some really mean things... :DD

But back to the Belgian truffles, which do not contain any real truffles (mu ha ha, but I know that now!) and therefore could not be found with pigs :D
But the idea that truffle chocolate grows in the forest and you could find it with pigs is somehow great! :D

The smell:

Hmm, it smells immediately (and extremely intense by the way) of chocolates. Yes, not milk chocolate or anything, but really chocolates with a filling, whereby the filling seems a bit fruity and liqueur-like to me. Vanilla is also quite abundant, which makes the scent not only very sweet, but also very soft and powdery. The caramel takes a little while to develop, but then it comes into play and is easily recognizable, although it doesn't stay for long.
So the scent remains for the most part, whereby the fruity one diminishes a little with the "filling" and later it simply smells of praline (but then also of "normal" chocolate) and vanilla. The whole late base is, as usual, only vanilla-powdery, which is of course also quite nice.

The Sillage and the durability:

The sillage is very strong. In the beginning it is almost room filling, with time the radiance naturally decreases a little bit, but remains at a very high level for a very long time, so that the scent can be perceived immediately on one or the other.
The scent lasts and lasts and lasts. At least twelve hours are safely in it!

The bottle! Yes, the bottle may be of high quality, but I've never liked Dua's bottles that much, at least not the shape, because I think it's a bit too functional, even if some fragrances have a really nice label on them. This one has a black label with the name of the fragrance and the brand name. The Arabic character is probably the logo of this brand.

Hm, Belgian Choco Truffle is once again one of those fragrances where the water in your mouth gets so thick that you hardly dare to open your mouth, because otherwise you would drool endlessly :D

Anyway, the scent smells absolutely great, but of course you might ask yourself if you want to smell so much like chocolate, whereas one (of course another one, *sigh*, very tasty,... ;-) During a conversation about chocolaty scents, a saleswoman once said that chocolate scents would ALWAYS go :)

Therefore I assume that this kind of scents could be great for going out, but probably more in autumn and winter, because the sweetness might be a bit overwhelming in hot weather.

So if you like chocolate, pralines and generally such "things", you should also have a look at this scent here. Or also, if you just want to look very, VERY SEEEEARLY delicious! :D
