MANIE DU CAFE

Bortnikoff Manie du Café (2025) is a dark and intensely characterful fragrance that explores the roasted, smoky side of coffee through a rich interplay of animalic notes, woods, and warm gourmand nuances. Castoreum and vanilla create a striking opening, where soft sweetness meets a distinctly wild and leathery character. At its heart, cedarwood adds a dry, smoky elegance, while hyraceum deepens the composition with dark, resinous and animalic facets. Tonka bean brings a smooth, creamy warmth, softening the more rugged elements without turning the fragrance overly sweet. As the fragrance settles, roasted coffee takes center stage, unfolding with an intense, dark and slightly bitter character, while Siberian deer musk adds a warm, musky depth and a distinctly natural sensuality. Smoky, woody, animalic, and richly roasted, Manie du Café is a bold interpretation of coffee in perfumery, balancing dark roasted beans, wild animalic nuances, creamy sweetness, and dry woods with remarkable intensity.
