A Word from the Manufacturer When the original Sidama fragrance was completed, its unique portrayal of natural process Ethiopian coffee impressed us with its complexity and sense of place. It delivered the grassy and earthy tones of the growing region with a boozy richness that felt distinctive and expressive. It was even named an independent category finalist in the 2023 Art and Olfaction Awards. One thought lingered at the time: we wanted to create a chocolate forward semi gourmand version. Inspired by the history of xocolatl, the ancient Aztec drinking chocolate made from fermented sun dried cacao beans blended with spices like chili pepper or cinnamon, we explored the cultural and aromatic richness of this tradition. In Sidama X, the coffee elements are dialed back while the boozy character is elevated. The fragrance centers on decadent semi sweet dark chocolate accented with chili pepper for warmth and intrigue. Instead of vanilla, resinous woody benzoin was chosen to maintain continuity with the original. The result is decadent, spicy, woody and slightly boozy, sweeter than the original but balanced by its earthy and resinous tones. A modern tribute to ancient chocolate, crafted to be savored. Directions for Use Shake well before use. Splash the desired amount into the hands and pat onto dry or slightly damp freshly shaven skin. Applying a small amount to the back of the neck enhances the fragrance experience.
