The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Choco Raptor, launched by Lorenzo Pazzaglia in 2023, is an Oriental Woody fragrance that marries the rich warmth of chocolate and vanilla with the intensity of spicy and leathery accords. The composition opens with a burst of citrusy grapefruit and bergamot, which quickly gives way to a heart of saffron, candied almond, and ginger. The base notes feature oud, leather, sandalwood, and tonka bean, creating an enveloping warmth that feels like stepping into a cozy study filled with the scent of aged books and fine leather.

How to wear it

Apply Choco Raptor in moderation — the spicy top notes are bright but short-lived. The fragrance truly comes into its own after an hour, so let it develop before stepping out. Ideal for evenings or cooler days when you want a warm, enveloping scent.
