Chocolate/Mocha

Hi there, I've been looking around now for various fragrances, and fragrances such as Comptoir Sud the Pacifique Amour De Cacao and others by them seem to fit the bill, except they are impossible to find within the UK, is there any recommendations you can give that can be bought within the UK?
I have also looked at Bond No 9 New Haarlem, but am worried that it may smell too strong of coffee as opposed to chocolate (sweeter). (And its expensive, not that that is too much of an issue . )

Cheers in advance.

To be on the safe side, I would sample New Haarlem before buying. It's a really nice fragrance that it definitely worth owning imo. If you like these chocolate/coffee gourmand fragrances, i would recommend L'Instant Extreme, 1270, L'Air Du Desert Marocain, Dior Homme Intense, Pure Coffee, Pure Malt, and A*MEN.

I would like to suggest Lacoste Elegance as well. Tried that last week and was surprised at how good it is

Frapin 1270. I can't really detect a chocolate or coffee note here, perhaps a suggestion of both, but if you like sweet you'll like this. You'd probably like all of the frags. listed by N.Cal, though!

Sample sample sample (and welcome to Basenotes)!

It seems a bit crass to recommend my own creation, which in any case might not be quite chocolaty enough compared to some of the earlier recommendations . . .

I don't get the chocolate vibe from Rochas.

For what your looking for I Would encourage you to check out Very Irresistable - Givenchy.
