![]() It’s very clean smelling, but it doesn’t fall victim to employing overwhelming citrus notes to get your nose there. On me, the scent starts strong with baby powder and soap and wears well, with the powder fading and leaving the soap. ![]() I’m slotting it in third place only because I’m drawn to richer, more complicated fragrances more than clean ones, but I do love a clean scent and this delivers. It’s a great alternative to-and opposite from-By the Fireplace.” I’d wear it when getting dressed up for a summer soiree. It’s refreshing so it’d be great for summer, but it could also work as a transitional scent in the spring or even fall. It comes on stronger on me than you and I get the soap and cleanliness aroma the most. Rashna’s review: “Ah, this is light and airy really easy on the nose. Anchored by coconut, patchouli, and white musk base notes, lavender, jasmine, and soap bubble accord round out the middle and top notes. It’s meant to emulate a prolonged soak in a relaxing sea of bubbles. Replica Coffee Break is available now at Sephora.Unisex - One of the more recent additions to the Replica family, Bubble Bath debuted in 2020. Have you smelled Replica Coffee Break yet? I did so want it to smell like a creamy coffee drink as described by many others but that wasn’t what I got at all here. This scent was interesting but not unique enough for me. Honestly, there’s nothing at all wrong with a good oriental fragrance as far as I’m concerned but when you expect one thing and get another it can be pretty disappointing. I get a bit of a powderiness to the final dry down which makes the scent nice and cozy! For an EDT formula it has a nice throw and a good wear with a fragrance bubble that wafted around me for a good 7 to 8 hours. The lavender blossoms make the fragrance more of a woodsy oriental versus a gourmand. The fragrance is meant to invoke the ambience of a small cafe with notes of Arabica Coffee Beans, lavender blossoms, and milk. The fragrance is very masculine which isn’t a bad thing as I enjoy other masculine scents from Replica like Barber Shop, Jazz Club, and By the Fireplace. As the scent dries down it quickly disappears to be replaced by a stronger, harsher lavender note. It’s very faint and very much in the background. The first mist of Coffee Break wet on my skin I can almost detect a creamy coffee note if I put my nose really, really, really close to my wrist. I wouldn’t say they have the same notes but the fragrances just seem a bit similar to each other. I have both scents and I felt like the two could easily be interchanged. Replica Coffee Break seems to veer into the realms of the brand’s newer scent called Whispers in the Library. Disappointing to a point I want to return it. Sadly, Replica Coffee Break is disappointing. They typically capture the vibe and inspiration of a place or a memory very easily! I have almost all of their scents and about 90% of them have all been a really good experience for me. ![]() Coffee? What? This smells nothing like coffee. After trying it I realized everyone that reviewed it and said it smelled like coffee must have been drunk AF when they wrote those reviews. After reading reviews on Replica Coffee Break Fragrance and all the raves about it smelling like creamy coffee I decided to buy it. I already have a lot of different coffee fragrances but I don’t mind adding more to my arsenal. The roasted beans, the creamy milk, the sugar, the warmth, and coziness of the scent just makes me think of a brisk Fall day! Ironically, I don’t drink coffee, I don’t even like it all that much but I love the smell of it! I find the smell of it heavenly. Yes, I like to run around smelling like I spilled a Macchiato down my shirt. ![]() I purchased this immediately upon seeing it pop up because I love, LOVE coffee scents. As you may know Coffee Break is a new, Nordstrom exclusive perfume that launched in the Maison Margiela Replica Fragrance Collection which is now available at Sephora. ![]()
