Chocolate Greedy

“The inside of an artisan chocolate shop on a January afternoon — unashamedly indulgent.”

Chocolate Greedy
vanilla
cacao
warm spicy

Montale's 2007 launch — one of the defining literal-chocolate niches of the late 2000s, predating the broader gourmand revival Lost Cherry would later reframe. A chocolate-coffee-vanilla unisex composition with cacao, vanilla, tonka bean, bitter orange, dried fruits, and coffee. Performs strongest in fall and winter, leans evening, with strong projection.

  • ●Clings to fabric for days
  • ●Excellent cold-weather comfort scent

Trade-offs

  • ●Wrong for warm weather — sugar overload becomes unbearable
  • ●Very sweet — wrong for those who prefer austere compositions
