Breaking boundaries with every bottle - ånd fragrance was born from the idea that smelling good and doing good can - and should - go hand in hand. As a brand, they proudly partner with the local, indigenous communities and cooperatives who grow and produce them.
Whilst Christmas time is definitely the season to be eating (a lot of) Cåke, this fragrance is like no other I have come across and as being part of the gourmand family, it lives up to every expectation. Said to have been inspired by Cocoa made from deforestation free environmentally conscious Fairtrade Cocoa beans, it has been seasoned with Caramel, Cocoa and Butterscotch notes to give that rich, creamy fragrance.
Indulge in the rich allure of Cåke, where cocoa's velvety embrace meets a hint of decadence. Savor the sweet sophistication, just like cocoa's role in agroforestry—where it not only adds flavor to the environment but also nurtures a balanced, sustainable ecosystem, like nature's own recipe for harmony.
This is a fragrance that can be worn alone or layered, depending on your preference and what I absolutely love about it is that each time I wear it, I pick up different scent notes. Packaged in a fun, paint splattered looking tube, the bottle screams luxury, made from chunky glass with a marble green rounded top, it is completely gender-less and is a scent you can wear all year round.
It opens with top notes of Neroli, creamy Sandalwood and Lime, so you get that zesty floral hit with Sandalwood those creamy, earthy tones keep it from being too citrusy. Then as those top noted dry down you really get to have your cake and wear it as Cocoa Absolute, Butterscotch caramel and vanilla are intertwined with warm wood, dried fruits, all reminiscent of a Christmas Cake, without the Marzipan (thank goodness). It is rich, sweet, spicy, warm and fruity all at the same time and it is just stunning.
Priced at £125 for 50ml, Cåke sits alongside a host of other fragrances, candles and solid perfumes, and if you are wanting to try everything ånd Fragrance has to offer, there is also an amazing Discovery Set giving you the opportunity to do just that.
