Fragrance information:

Espresso Noir is a unisex composition from the German perfume house Maison Afford, released in the concentration Extrait de Parfum.

The fragrance belongs to the oriental and gourmand families and promises to become a true accessory for those who are not afraid to be the center of attention.

Maison Afford is about German restraint, but with character. The brand doesn't chase big names but bets on quality and charisma.

Espresso Noir sounds exactly like that: confident, rich, and a little daring.

Character and Mood

From the very first seconds, the fragrance makes itself known with an enveloping coffee accord. Here, Coffee doesn't sound like a morning espresso but rather an evening ritual with a hint of rum.

A touch of tartness and sweetness — and the composition becomes truly enticing.

The heart of the fragrance rests on brown sugar and Rum, creating the feeling of a warm gourmand cocktail.

Thanks to a woody base of sandalwood and vetiver, the sweetness doesn't become cloying — it remains noble and deep.

The sillage of Espresso Noir is very strong. Such a fragrance doesn't go unnoticed, so it's best to keep it to just a couple of sprays.

It's a choice for evening outings, winter dates, and special moments.

Who It Suits

The perfume is positioned as unisex, and that's honest: it suits both women and men who appreciate dense, enveloping compositions.

Espresso Noir will reveal itself differently on the skin, but it will always leave a trail of coffee, sugar, and warm wood.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
