A have a 10ml travel size of this eau de toilette and I would not mind having a 100ml bottle. It is lovely.
Coffee Break is from the “memory in a fragrance” line. It was designed to evoke a cold winter day in Stockholm in 2007, cozying up in a cafe with a freshly brewed cappuccino nearby. And it does smell like it. The accords are warm and cozy; it replicates the scent memory perfectly. It smells like biscuits, milk and coffee. The scent is comfortable enough to wear to bed.

The actual note profile is strong on lavender; which interestingly, I do not get. It is not a beast mode fragrance. It is EDT in the end of the day. Not something you would wear to a club to give you an example. However, with its moderate lasting power and projection, it serves its purpose well. If it were stronger, I would somehow find it suffocating.
Coffee Break is worth trying if a nice casual winter scent is something you are hunting down.
