The Story

FRESH‑POURED DOMINICAN COFFEE, BROWN SUGAR, AND RUM‑soaked vanilla... the comfort of home now comes as a perfume. Picture a late‑afternoon pause: tiny porcelain cup, steam curling above dark cafe con leche, oven‑warm cake nearby. That inspiration earned La Tacita de Café both the 2023 Art & Olfaction Aftel Award and ScentXplore’s 2024 Best Debut Fragrance Award. Spiced orange greets you upon first spray, then transforms into rich coffee, brown sugar, and mellow vanilla touched with rum in the heart of the fragrance. Chocolate, tonka, and amyris smooth out the base notes; reminding you that “home” is only a spray away.

The House

Day Three was founded in 2022 by Michael and Vanessa Paul, and within months of releasing their first perfume — La Tacita de Café — won the Art and Olfaction Golden Pear Award. The house treats perfume as a vessel for precious moments and memory. It is a true family operation: their niece and sister work closely with the team, and Michael, in another life, was a stage magician.
