Cocktail Maracuja is a fruity, spicy, woody scent created for Men and Women in 2023.
Review
This scent is literally the aroma of a fruity cocktail on the skin. The Passion Fruit, blended with Pear, Strawberry, Lemon, and Ginger, thrives from beginning to end. Pink Pepper and Cardamom add a nice spice infusion, while Amber, Vanilla, and Lactonic Notes bring a warm and creamy vibe. Cedarwood comes in at the end, bringing a subtle, slightly sharp, fresh wood essence. It’s like drinking fruity cocktails at a beachside bar, cocktails are flowing…maybe even being served inside tropical fruit…and the open air brings the aromas of the jungle to you. It is bright and fun and sweet. While it has a very casual vibe overall, it is safe for the office, but is much better suited for fun evenings out, Summer days relaxing and adventuring, and anytime you want to feel a boost of vibrancy and energy. It has been compared to scents like Tiziana Terenzi Kirke and Xerjoff Erba Pura. Try this sample and let us know what you think!

Notes
The unmistakable essence of Passion Fruit is felt immediately, and all the way through to the end of the dry down. It is boosted in the opening with additional fruity notes of Blackcurrant, Pear, and Strawberry, and a tart twist of Lemon. Ginger keeps things bright and invigorating, lending to the spicy elements of Cinnamon, Cardamom and Pink Pepper. Jasmine and Rose bring a hint of a floral element to the overall sweetness of this composition, but remain in the background. Vanilla blends with Lactonic Notes, and the creamy warmth of Amber, continuing the sweet vibes, but bringing in some warmth. White Musk adds a hint of wispy sensuality, while a blend of Patchouli and Cedarwood grounds things with a slightly sharp, slightly woody vibe, without taking away from the brightness of everything. The scent remains sweet, fruity, and intoxicating.
