QUE CHIMBA

Que Chimba is the fragrance by Lorenzo Pazzaglia, the Italian house of artistic perfumery born from its founder's creativity. An oriental, floral unisex Extrait de Parfum, made for anyone who loves fragrances able to tell the story of an unrestrained celebration.

The Fragrance

Que Chimba is born from a sunny Colombian afternoon, among swaying palm leaves and an invitation to celebrate life in all its fullness. Lorenzo Pazzaglia turned it into a fragrance with a bold, contrasting character, where tropical warmth meets a decisive spiciness, for a result that leaves no one indifferent.

How It Evolves on Skin

Que Chimba opens with Star Anise, Guava, Cinnamon, Cloves, Ginger, Passionfruit and Peach, intense and overwhelming, giving an immediate tropical, spicy rush. The heart settles into Sweet Tobacco, Tonka Bean, Damask Rose, Heliotrope and Cattleya Orchid, warm and velvety. In the base everything settles into Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Benzoin, Vanilla Pod, Amber and Ambergris, enveloping and resinous, for an intense, memorable trail.

Who We Recommend Que Chimba To

Que Chimba is perfect for anyone looking for a fragrance that's different from the usual oriental, able to convey the feeling of a tropical celebration lived to the fullest rather than just a sweet scent. It works equally well on him and her, gives its best on occasions when you want to stand out with personality, and is the right choice for anyone who loves spicy, amber compositions that are never shy.

Fragrance Characteristics

Our Opinion

We like Que Chimba precisely because it doesn't chase easy consensus: it opens with an almost disarming spicy, fruity rush, then melts into a warm, resinous base that lingers on the skin for a long time. It's one of those fragrances that divide opinion, but that anyone who loves it never gives up.
