Bitter Chocolate

The Story
Bitter Chocolate is exactly what it says: a dark, unsweetened cocoa scent that smells like a bar of high-quality dark chocolate. It's surprisingly wearable, with a dry, almost dusty cocoa powder note that feels cozy and grounded. This is not a gourmand; it's a realistic, slightly bitter chocolate that lingers close to the skin.
