Fat high-contrast face similar to Bodoni

Hi, does anyone what font this is? I first thought this was Bodoni, but it must be something different.

I thought it was Basilia but after carefully checking. I’m not sure anymore.

Thought it’s Pistilli Roman/Didoni. But no. It’s rather a Didot than a Bodoni, though.

I’d try something in the Modern No. 20 area: there are other fonts called “modern” in a similar vein that might be closer.

(But man, that hyphen in de- sign, it’s got to go!)
