MONTALE PARIS CHOCOLATE GREEDY EDP 100m

Classified as Oriental Vanilla / Gourmand. Decadent, rich, and highly edible. It captures the aroma of baked goods, specifically chocolate chip cookies, brownies, or high-quality cocoa powder, often with a subtle fruity/citrus lift.

Key Notes (The Core):

Cacao / Cocoa: The central, dominant note. It is often perceived as a dark, powdery, sometimes slightly bitter baker's cocoa or a freshly baked brownie/cake.

Vanilla / Tonka Bean: Provides the sweetness, creaminess, and warmth, giving the impression of milk chocolate or vanilla frosting/custard.

Performance: Like most Montale fragrances, Chocolate Greedy is a powerhouse. It offers excellent longevity (often 8+ hours) and strong, projecting sillage, though some reviewers note that the intense chocolate blast fades to a softer, creamy vanilla skin scent after a few hours.

Seasons: It is best suited for Cold Weather (Fall and Winter) due to its rich, warming, and heavy sweetness.

Occasions: Perfect as a comfort scent, for casual wear, or for any cozy gathering. It is not generally recommended for the office or very warm weather, as the sweetness can become overwhelming.

Supporting Notes (The Twist):

Bitter Orange: This is a crucial, often overlooked note. It cuts through the density of the chocolate, sometimes giving a "chocolate orange" or "fruity cereal" vibe in the opening, and preventing the scent from becoming overly cloying.

Dried Fruits: Adds depth and a subtle, jammy sweetness that rounds out the composition.

Coffee: Although often listed, the coffee note is usually very subtle, lending a dark, roasted backdrop to the cacao rather than being a prominent coffee scent itself.
