Sweet Taboo by Chris Collins is a seductive gourmand fragrance that explores the irresistible appeal of warm spices, rich coffee, and creamy sweetness. The composition opens with aromatic clary sage, spicy cardamom, and cinnamon, creating an inviting warmth that draws you in. As the fragrance develops, rich cacao and bold coffee emerge alongside the subtle floral character of geranium, adding a decadent depth that balances the opening's aromatic intensity.
The base unfolds into a smooth combination of Siam benzoin, tonka bean, vanilla, and musk, creating a warm, velvety finish with a touch of resinous sweetness. The contrast between aromatic spices, indulgent gourmand notes, and soft musky warmth gives Sweet Taboo its distinctive character. Rich, sensual, and undeniably inviting, this Extrait de Parfum captures the allure of giving in to temptation.

Gourmand
Gourmand fragrances are inspired by delicious, dessert-like notes and the comforting warmth of familiar indulgences. They often blend vanilla, fruit, spice, caramel, chocolate, nuts, or creamy accords into scents that feel cozy, playful, decadent, or elegant. Sweet without always being simple, the best gourmands feel memorable, refined, and hard to resist.
