The night has finally arrived; the coffee is fresh and the rum is dark, and welcome to Espresso Royale. Dark roasted coffee, dark rum, warm coffee cake with rich caramel. It is the anticipation of the nights mysteries and delights...sweet and dark...innocence with danger lurking just out of sight.
Notes: Rum, hazelnut, caramel, espresso.

If a Latte Was a Perfume.
Creamy, smooth, gourmand. What else needs to be said? Espresso Royale reminds me of the most expensive, smoothest latte one could imagine. An amazing frothy-vanilla base soaked in rich coffee beans. This is for those who enjoy a more sweet coffee scent rather than a bitter one. 5/5 easily.

Fantastic Coffee
Espresso Royale is one of a kind. I have so often encountered coffee based fragrances that let me down, but not this one. The opening is a creamy rich coffee. As it dries down, it becomes more frothy and “milk” like, exactly like a latte. I am seriously considering purchasing a full bottle after sampling this.

ESPRESSO ROYALE
It has pretty much all the notes that are listed, it opens up exactly like the Japanese Kopiko coffee candy I used to really like. Unfortunately, after the dry down it fades more into a really strong rum/boozy scent and the sweetness of the milky sugary coffee candy just vanishes. I prefer the sweeter opening notes of the perfume, but I imagine others may enjoy the slightly darker and boozier edge to this scent.

Simply delicious
Warm and spicy and sexy, so perfect for winter. Wearing it feels like slipping into a camel-colored cashmere sweater -- with nothing on underneath. :) Will be ordering a full bottle, for certain.

Memories in Gourmand
When I was growing up, we had an ice cream shop called Big Dip. It was called this because they used to dip the soft ice cream upside down to create a shell over it. I loved it when the dip spilled over and ran down onto the cone. It came in two flavors: chocolate and cherry. One dip created this heavenly, velvety shell. A couple years passed, and the dip stopped performing that magic. It was thinner, and it didn't completely cover the white of the ice cream. They also had the best espresso ever. Yes, I did do that lemon twist, and it was worth every penny. They also had lattes, specialty brews, cappuccinos etc. They were the best ever. No coffee shop to this day can compare to the way they used to make them back then. The opening in Sebastian's Espresso takes me back to that time. Wonderful quality in this fragrance. It wears soft on me, but that's really good; I wouldn't want this one to be a beast. This one is certainly bottle worthy.
