Statik Olfactive Cr\u00e8me de Menthe Caf\u00e9 (Extrait de Parfum) has been nominated for the Best Perfume Prize at the Art and Olfaction Awards in 2026.<\/p>\n
Cr\u00e8me de Menthe Caf\u00e9 evokes the atmosphere of late-night indulgence, when caf\u00e9 culture shifts into something darker and irresistibly decadent. Polished wooden counters bathed in amber light, espresso cups set beside melting chocolate. Heightened senses, and conversations stretching into the night beneath clouds of sweetness. It approaches gourmand perfumery with rich extravagance, transforming familiar comfort into a sensual and captivating experience. The perfume strikes a balance between nostalgia and sophistication, embodying the playful delight of mint chocolate desserts while enveloping them in the depth of roasted coffee, cream, and liqueur. With a 30% extrait concentration, Cr\u00e8me de Menthe Caf\u00e9 feels rich and captivating on the skin. It is not merely a sweet scent, but aims to create an atmosphere of comfort, seduction, and slowly igniting intimacy.<\/p>\n
Cr\u00e8me de Menthe Caf\u00e9 opens with a cool burst of peppermint that melts into accords of creamy mint chocolate and frothy cream, instantly evoking the sensation of desserts secretly savored alongside a fresh espresso. Coconut milk softens the freshness with velvety warmth, and the heart notes quickly deepen into layers of dark-roasted, full-bodied Hawaiian Kona and Colombian coffee. Rum and sweet orange lend a delicate, boozy sparkle, while milk, coconut, bourbon vanilla, and chocolate syrup meld into a divine gourmand indulgence. Beneath the sweetness, myrrh adds a resinous depth that makes the composition elegant rather than playful.<\/p>\n
At the heart of Statik Olfactive Cr\u00e8me de Menthe Caf\u00e9, Australian sandalwood, coffee absolute, cocoa butter, brown sugar, and cognac weave an addictive base that lends stunning warmth and longevity. Benzoin, labdanum, olibanum, amber, and white musk leave a soft, creamy drydown, offering a sense of calm without losing its seductive power. Cr\u00e8me de Menthe Caf\u00e9 is ideal for those who love rich, gourmand fragrances and who want to balance sweetness with depth and sophistication. <\/p>\n
