Authentic cognac with freshly processed tobacco
I became aware of Beat Cafe through a nice statement. Admittedly, the name also appealed to me, although I don't think it has anything to do with the fragrance itself, but coffee always attracts me.
I don't smell coffee here, but still something else beautiful. Beat Cafe has a charm of its own that I have never experienced in a fragrance before. The peppery note seemed extremely familiar to me, as I would also consider the similar fragrance Portraits - The Blazing Mister Sam already mentioned to be very similar, but this similarity is lost in the course, more on the course.
Starting with a pleasant cognac, I liked the scent the first time I tried it. Beat Cafe is a good example of how to incorporate alcoholic notes into fragrances. No sweet and loud impact like in Angels' Share , no spicy-sweet boozy half-hearted alcoholic experience like in Enigma pour Homme Parfum , no questionable name-baiting game like in Cognac Cafe . No, here I briefly get an authentic cognac note, not burning, not fruity, not sweet, slightly spicy and a little dry. The Beat Cafe gives off this fine glass of cognac with a pinch of tart black pepper. The top note completely won me over.
This is followed by tobacco and leather, I don't really go for labdanum, but it would probably have worked well too. This tobacco and leather combination is strong and gentle at the same time, as soon as the notes become stronger, they have a dominant upswing. As quickly as they come in, however, they also retreat again, but remain tartly spicy and attractive. Tobacco is not dry, but rather fresh after the harvest and immediately processed, without smelling too tart or mossy. The black leather is really very delicate and in the background, which is why the fragrance is hardly classified as leathery.
The base is made up of cedarwood and benzoin. The cedarwood is somewhat like cognac or a cognac barrel. Slightly sweet and woody. Benzoin then adds a resinous sweetness. At no point is the sweetness disturbing or too strong, nor is the Beat Cafe sticky. In the late drydown, the tobacco becomes even drier.
I can't explain how they came up with the name, coffee is not an ingredient as described and the fragrance doesn't evoke any memories of a visit to a café.
I particularly like the cognac opening and the presentation of the tobacco. The base with the sweet, alcoholic woody note also brings Beat Cafe to a wonderful close. A fine fragrance for cooler days. Unfortunately, the longevity is a little weak for a fragrance of this kind, meaning that it quickly fades when it is around zero degrees outside. Nevertheless, a fine spicy pleasure.
