The fragrance for the wannabe barista
I have already tried a few fragrances with "coffee" as the scent. The phallic symbol from Rochas, Halloween's Man X, Intense Cafe from Montale, etc. But this roasted coffee note that comes across here in Mugler's Pure Coffee, it really deserves the name coffee. Pure Coffee starts out rather untypically spicy for a Mugler fragrance. Not like these sugar-sweet café au lait fragrances, but rather strikingly spicy, the roasted coffee notes slightly spiced. A very great beginning that the two perfumers have created here
In the drydown, the fragrance then gains warmth, loses some of the coffee (which still remains slightly visible in the background) and becomes slightly sweeter. Here the rather typical A*Men DNA of Mugler comes through again. The sweetness makes it very pleasant on the skin, especially in cooler weather. For people with a preference for coffee (in its pure, ground form) this could be the perfect fragrance. But if you prefer it to be sticky sweet, you will have to look elsewhere.
