Sweet chocolate notes in A-Men

yeah my nose can't really pick them up at all. I can kinda see where people could smell that but on my skin it smells like patchouli with a faint bit of chocolate thrown in. I have even had someone mention smelling patchouli when I was wearing the stuff.

Just curious if anyone else got the same vibe from this fragrance because I never really seen this mentioned by anyone before.

Give it many wearings and months of use, youll eventually pick up on it. Check out a review I did, its a forum post. search "A*Men The Final Verdict"

The chocolate is very much there, but it's an earthy-toasty 65%-70% + dark chocolate that doesn't smell like regular milk-hershey choco bar.
Think Valhrona's Grand Cru Caraïbe bar (66% cocoa) or El Rey's Apamate bar (73.5% cocoa).

This choco can be found at the very base of A*Men and it's the note that makes it last the longest

I get a very deep fudgy chocolate note from A*Men from beginning to end, it's there the whole time, it just thins out.
