"Crème Brûlée was made because I was finally getting comfortable with being flirty and kind of getting into naughty situations and enjoying the attention I was getting. So it’s kind of like a coming of age song for me is how it felt eventhough I’m in my 30s, but it was really like my version of my coming of age," Archuleta told ABS-CBN News.

"Being flirty being a little more sexy being a little more naughty and the are innuendos in the song. But it’s still chill. It’s still laid-back. The point was not to be in your face so much. It’s like a chill way of vibin' and having fun and dancing like in the video," he added.

"The hardest thing about the track? I think it was the first time that I ever wrote something that was a little naughtier and a little more playful and sexy. That was I think that was maybe the biggest challenge of it being like 'can I really say this?' and then be like 'oh yeah, I can.' So it wasn’t too hard. It really was, it felt like an effortless song and I’m always glad when those songs come in it’s just kind of magical," he said.

"And it was so fun adding the Spanish maybe like also trying to make sure that I was saying the Spanish the way that I wanted it to sound. I speak in Spanglish just like the song is Spanglish so my Spanish isn’t always perfect, but I had my mom check it. 'Mom, how does this sound? Does this sound OK?' and she’s like 'yeah that sounds good.' I’m OK. She’s like 'let me ask my dad to make sure' 'cause he’s like he speaks very proper Spanish and he only speaks Spanish and she be like 'yeah I’d all sounds good.' And yeah, that was the biggest challenge but really was luckily pretty," Archuleta added.
