OCCO 2019: Mocha

[Beccah]

Get ready to PERK his interest with this enlivening OCCO! It’s our irresistible brew of numerous coffee oils, with a trio of mouthwatering chocolates and a shot of steamed milk aroma plus a dollop of sweet cream accord…mmm, perfect for a coffee date too tempting to resist!

It’s dark, rich, smooth and deep and still a bit creamy and a bit sweet. I think it’s going to appeal to both sides of the coffee scent coin enough to satisfy a lot of people. 

 

Agreed.  I was thinking it reminds me a lot of Blackstone, and I mean that in terms of the dark chocolate coffee part of it.

 

This, to me, is a rather definitive take on mocha, like this is the mocha you need if you really like that particular style of coffee fragrance construction.  I think guys (who are into wearing cops) might even like this if they're really into coffee fragrances because it's not sweet.  It has a bit of sweetness in it, but it's not categorically sweet as a scent.  I love it when Mara does this sort of thing, like, "This is all the (thing) that you will ever need."  And she just does it, no big.  *swoon*

 

Better yet, I can actually wear it without it going weird on me, huzzah!

This is really delicious!  It reminds me a bit of LP Bittersweet the way it reads on my skin.  It is a sweet, chocolate coffee, that smells great on it's own, but would be easy to layer. I bought some Warm Milk & Sugar during the sale and plan on layering it next time I'm wearing OCCO Mocha for some extra creamy sweetness.

I took this with me to my daughter's school for some testing. It's a warm sunny day, so I sat in the shade and opened the vial and got a blast of serious yum! Wet, it was lush and creamy, and I honestly wished it was a real beverage in my hand. On me, it was sweet. And I got absolutely zero cops. But, more importantly, let me tell you how it was perceived by a 10 yr old boy. 

 

My daughter has a very very sweet and talkative friend named Aiden. He said hello to me, I asked him "what's happening?" He indicated that my question needed clarification,  he sat down next to me and I said "what happened today that stood out as interesting and/or memorable?" He said, "I smell cupcakes." I said, "oh, that's me." He said "no, I really smell cupcakes," and I offered him my arm. Aiden then told me that he does that too, "sometimes I wear cupcakes to school." And then he hugged me. (He's never hugged me before.) I asked if he had seen my daughter, he jumped up to go find her, but left his backpack with me. My daughter told me that he told her that I was waiting for her, except that I was dead, because he ate me. Clearly she didn't understand, he then offered that I wasn't dead and he had only eaten my arm. He then beat her back down to me, grabbed his backpack, and told me to have a good day. When running away, he spun around, waved, and again told me to have a good day. 

 

This stuff will will be dangerous if it effects grown men the way it captivates 10 yr old boys on the playground. 

 

For the record, it doesn't smell like baked good to me. Definitely a delicious mocha. But boys will interpret as delicious, whatever their frame of reference. I wish cupcakes tasted like it smells!

Had to try this first and yes, I love Luna's characterization-- this is all the mocha I will ever need!  I love coffee scents so much and they often go wonky on me but this is HEAVEN.  It's dark, warm, purring chewy textured coffee with a whisper of chocolate to keep it from turning bitter... I'm loving it solo but I bet it would also he a great layering note.  Reminds me of my beloved Titillating Temptress which is highest praise.  Love it!

"sometimes I wear cupcakes to school."

He said that sometimes he wears a cupcake disguised as a shirt over a regular shirt and eats it on the sly during class. 

My guess is that he was just making conversation.

I got almost all of the new? OCCOs (Resinate, Almond, Orange, Pineapple etc) and this is one of my favorites. They are all so fantastic. I haven’t detected a hint of cops in any of them. 
It seems no matter what you may want to layer you could be covered by one of the OCCO offerings. 
I think Mocha, and Orange Droolicious are my favorites. 
I may go look for a virgin Mocha. Not sure. So many great fun things here.

Ok, oldsters, remember the tv ads for General Foods International Coffees, and the promises of being whisked away to some exotic, romantic destination with just one sip? Well, this is so much better than any of that. Rich, true mocha in all its glory. If you could drink it (DON'T! It won't cure The COVID!), it would be full-bodied, fragrant, no bitterness-just absolutely THE perfect mocha.
