Perfumed Water No. 19 Caffe Intenso by the Ukrainian brand Altero — a luxurious embodiment of harmony, lightness, and beauty, framed by the walls of a sleek bottle and the structure of an olfactory pyramid. An Oriental-floral sway, seasoned with gourmet reflections, becomes the best friend for all women who know how to present their ambitions through weightless accessories. A refreshingly sweet trail long stirs the mind, awakening the kindest and most sincere thoughts…
Top Note. Escaping the captivity of the bottle, true sensuality bursts into reality with the reflections of tender, irresistibly attractive floral notes. A lyrical solo relaxes and motivates, encouraging a more confident movement towards the set goal.
Heart Note. The emotional rhythm smoothly picks up bitter coffee, diluting its severity with sparks of royal rose. This incredible duo plays with the mind for a long time, reminding of all the good deeds…
Base Note. An amber trail, woven from pristine musky patterns and vanilla edges, encourages the soul to descend to earth and bring its ode to harmony, lightness, and beauty into the real world!
I really liked it! It immediately reminded me of coffee and roses, even though I don't usually like roses, but I enjoyed the combination. It quickly transitions into a musky scent. I want to order the original, but I'm worried that I might get tired of it after wearing it for a while. These miniatures are just perfect for that.
Pleasant, but purely floral scent, not very long-lasting, but considering the price, it's acceptable.
For this money, it's quite decent. It was worth getting.
A pleasant eastern aroma, not overly sweet. It's worth considering at such a price to add some variety. It reminds me of the atmosphere of mini coffee shops in shopping centers.
It is actually quite decent, and for the sake of variety, you can use it alongside the original. My first love was Intense Cafe, so I will be ordering other fragrances.
Montale Intense Cafe is practically identical in its scent. However, its longevity varies.
There are no flowers at the beginning. The scent immediately becomes suffocating. You can slightly sense the coffee, there are still some hints of it. No roses or vanilla, the smell is too sweet, almost sickening, but I can't even say what it reminds me of. The impression is something old-fashioned. It faded after an hour, thank goodness. This is the first water in my entire life that made me feel choked, gave me a headache, and made me nauseous.
The first impression - coffee and rose prevail, vanilla adds a doll-like sweetness to it all...
BUT
later on, the aroma becomes more oriental in a good sense, although it still remains too soft.
In my opinion, it wouldn't hurt to have a sharp or penetrating accent - something like cloves or anise. But this is just my opinion.
Overall, it's quite interesting.
This product is very similar to Montale, but its longevity is minimal.
Yes, it does indeed smell similar to Intense Cafe Montale, but the longevity is simply non-existent! I don't understand why it costs so much. It would be better to buy a sample of a good perfume instead of this.
In my opinion, the scent is overly sweet and sometimes cloying. It has a cheap smell, like it's not worth its price. It's suitable for running errands or going to the store, but I wouldn't recommend it for more formal occasions.
Yesterday I received my little bottle, perfect for carrying in my bag during the winter season. The scent is truly reminiscent of Montale, as mentioned in the comments. However, the longevity is a bit weak. I haven't tried it on clothing yet, but considering the price, what more can you expect? Most likely, I will try other scents from this series as well.
Interesting smell, strong and rich. It doesn't smell like coffee.
This fragrance is absolutely luxurious, comparable to the Intense Cafe Montale, but at a fraction of the price. If you enjoy sweet coffee scents, you will not be disappointed! And yes, the packaging is exquisite, making it perfect for gifting.
