What chocolate smells like in perfume

Chocolate begins with the cocoa bean, the seed of the cacao tree. The tree's Latin name, Theobroma, means "food of the gods" in Greek. Before the beans become chocolate, they are fermented, dried and roasted.

Chocolate was a drink long before it was a bar. In Mesoamerica it was drunk bitter, flavoured with vanilla and chilli, and it reached Europe in the 16th century.

Guerlain describes the cocoa in one of its perfumes as an accord its perfumer composed, with notes that are sweet and bitter at once. Read the perfumes below the same way: the partners around the chocolate decide whether it comes across as dark, milky, floral or woody.

Chocolate is one corner of the wider sweet family. For that bigger picture, from caramel and praline to coffee, read our guide to gourmand perfumes. This page stays with chocolate alone and sorts it by its partner.

Chocolate at the centre

These five build around chocolate or cocoa, with coffee, vanilla, tobacco, rum or tonka bean beside it.
