Abaton Chinotto Dark Sample for Unisex – A Mysterious Citrus That Dares to Go Deep
Dark. Intoxicating. Unexpected. Abaton Chinotto Dark isn’t your typical citrus fragrance. This is a scent that dares to take the bright bitterness of Chinotto—a rare Italian citrus—and wrap it in layers of incense, spices, and smoky warmth. It’s hauntingly elegant, full of contrast, and deeply memorable. With Scents Angel’s 5 ml sample, you can explore this truly niche experience before committing to a full-size bottle.

At Scents Angel, we’re all about helping fragrance lovers find their signature scent through flexible, luxurious sampling. Chinotto Dark is also available in 10 ml travel sprays and the full 100 ml bottle, so you can choose the format that fits your lifestyle and passion for perfume.

🍊 A Citrus Like No Other
Abaton has crafted a fragrance that redefines what a citrus scent can be. Forget light, airy lemon spritzes—Chinotto Dark is intense, sensual, and layered with emotional depth. The star of the composition is Chinotto, a bitter, tangy citrus fruit native to Liguria, Italy. Its uniqueness lies in its tart edge and earthy complexity, which serve as the perfect introduction to the smoky and resinous heart that follows.

This is citrus for the daring. Citrus with mystery. Citrus that’s grown up and isn’t afraid to lean into the shadows.

🌿 Scent Profile – Bitter, Smoky, and Refined
Top Notes: Chinotto, bitter orange, spices
Heart Notes: Incense, smoky woods, geranium
Base Notes: Resins, myrrh, patchouli, musk

The opening greets you with a piercing citrus bitterness—the sharpness of Chinotto and bitter orange slices through the air, immediately distinctive and invigorating. There’s a hint of spice—maybe black pepper, maybe clove—adding a subtle warmth and edge to the brightness.

As the fragrance settles, the heart reveals a completely different mood. Incense and smoky woods creep in, grounding the sparkle of the top notes with a resinous, meditative calm. Geranium adds a green-floral note that keeps the composition from becoming too heavy, bridging the gap between sharp citrus and deep woods.

In the base, things turn darker and smoother. Warm resins, earthy patchouli, and sensual musk swirl together in a skin-like finish that’s both comforting and slightly mysterious. Myrrh gives it a sacred, ritualistic feel, making this scent feel like an ancient tale told in modern language.

🧑🤝🧑 For the Bold, the Refined, the Curious
Chinotto Dark is unisex but leans slightly into the masculine with its incense and wood undertones—yet on the right skin, it becomes hauntingly sensual and softly smoky. It’s perfect for:

• Fragrance connoisseurs who crave depth and evolution

• Citrus lovers seeking something more complex and less predictable

• Fans of smoky, resinous, or incense-laced scents

• Cool weather wear, particularly fall and winter when the base notes shine

• Evening wear, romantic dates, or introspective solo moments

Whether you're wearing it to make an impression or simply to enjoy its meditative qualities, Chinotto Dark never feels generic. It’s crafted for the scent enthusiast who doesn’t follow trends—they create them.

⏳ Longevity, Sillage & Performance

• Longevity: 6–8 hours with excellent development over time

• Sillage: Moderate to strong in the first few hours

• Projection: Noticeable within arm’s reach, then becomes a sensual skin scent

Chinotto Dark has a chameleon-like performance—starting off bold and expressive, then mellowing into a smoky whisper that clings softly to your skin and clothing. It leaves a memorable trail that doesn’t overpower but always intrigues.
