By the editors · 2 min readThe opening feels unexpectedly bright for something called Café-Café—sweet pear and peach tempered by citrus, like fruit tarts cooling on a café counter rather than espresso itself. This quickly softens into a surprisingly lush white floral heart, tuberose and jasmine threading through aromatic rosemary in a way that feels more French bistro garden than coffee shop interior.
The dry down settles into gentle sweetness, vanilla and caramel lending warmth without heaviness, grounded by muted sandalwood and patchouli. Despite the name's coffee implications, this is actually a fruit-and-floral composition with gourmand undertones—approachable, unpretentious, quietly charming in a mid-nineties way. It suits someone drawn to soft florals with a sweet edge, who wants fragrance that feels friendly rather than complex or challenging.
