I_Ristretto
Regular price $ 120.00Coffee enriches and modernizes the classically perfect blend of iris and violet. Enriched with a luxe base of cashmeran and patchouli.
From Maison Tahité
A tribute to one of the most iconic Italian coffee: the ristretto. To highlight the finesse of this drink, the Nose has chosen a short formula, as a ristretto, where the Coffee Absolute Arabica merges with the precious Iris. Treasure of the Perfumer’s palette, the Iris reveals its flowery and talcum powdery notes, to enhance the vibrating and strong bitter taste of this coffee.

Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchase full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
Compared to Velvet Coffee, the coffee notes in this had more of a fighting chance, but this was more powdery and sweet. It’s cacao nibs, baby powder, and coffee with a mocha creamer perhaps.
I get a candy violet beginning, then coffee after. Lovely scent, definitely pair it with a milky oil base or perfume and you’re a latte. Not gourmand but gourmand.
Had high hopes for this one based on the notes, but was disappointed. On me, I don't get any coffee notes whatsoever. Straight out of the gate a very light, powdery iris/violet. I don't get any patchouli or cashmeran. On me, only last about 2 hours (the entire time could barely smell) and then it was gone despite all my tricks to try to make it last. While it was there, was very lovely but just not what I was looking for sadly.
