Patchouli Noisette

Patchouli is pretty much the only star here, and Les Indemodables have teased and cajoled facets from it I've not experienced before. This opens with a sweetness that seems almost like berries soaked in some kind of sweet liqueur, yet an earthy woodiness, verging on dank, lurks in the background. And while we're on a roll, how about a tree-sappy resinous touch that hints at sharp-camphorous. The only thing a fail to get is hazelnut as an obvious odour. As things dry down (which it does in a fairly linear fashion) the deepness of the blend, the angles, each of the aforementioned facets, are smoothed out by a soft blanket of creaminess.... The hazelnut effect? Anyhow, I am impressed. A solitary note taken simultaneously in multiple directions, yet resolving itself into a very, very wearable whole. Long lasting, interesting, and what will certainly make for a stupendous Winter-wear! Tested from the official Les Indemodables fragrance sample set (super value for money!)

It's great after the opening phase, where it turns more constant. I can then get the noisette in its green version (like scratching the coating of some nut, maybe a crude chestnut), not very gourmand (but cacao is still noticeable), blended with an elegant and clean patchouli (and probably many synthetics including akigalawood or similar?) this phase is amazing. Patchouli is not musty and lacks the earthiness from the natural one. It has moderate sillage. Sticks to clothing intensely until the next day. I get at the beginning a strong spicy note, which for me overshadows the patchouli, and it's too similar to many niche parfums launched last 2-3 years. After some uses, I think it's a great perfume, strong, with character, could by one, but still it's pretty expensive and I would have liked some more classic earthy patchouli feeling. I am surprised by the greeness though.

Love this! Best from the house on my skin. On paper, some of the others caught my attention, but they were very different on wearing. On paper, this is just a really nice patchouli. But on my skin, it is so clean and creamy with an underlying nuttiness and faint vanilla in the far background. My skin sweetens everything up. 3 hours into the dry down, it becomes more of a gourmand scent. I get whiffs of cinnamon-spiced sweetness in the air even tho it’s still patch up close. Hour 5 it’s full on patchouli dessert mode. Not sweet, but it morphs into more of a “fruity accord with cinnamon wrapped in a pastry.” Wonderful surprise. I love it.

This is lovely. At first you can get fooled by it and perceive it as an easy to like patchouli forward fragrance, especially if you smell it up close. However, if you wear it or smell it in the air the hazelnut is very much prominent. It adds a nutty, slightly sweet facet to the patchouli. Haven’t smelled that twist on a patchouli fragrance before.

Patchouli Noisette Les Indemodables این پچولی خیلی شبیه پچولی الوعده و منو خیلی بعد از نیم ساعت یاد اون انداخت شروعش خیلی هارشه دوسش نداشتم اصلا ولی در ادامه یه فضای اوزونیک خیلی جالب داره که زمختی پچولی رو میگیره و راحت پوش تر میکنه کار رو. خیلی انتخاب همه پسند و پر بازخوردی میتونه باشه به نظرم برای یه عطر پچولی محور
