Un Patchouli

honestly the low rating makes no sense. it might be one of the best patchoulis in the market right now. it starts with a humidos / cigar box patchouli that is extremely refined, and quickly the tonka bean makes it smoother, really modern, and extremely pleasing. this is not your classic vintage patchouli, it's actually a lot more interesting although it's marketed as a solinote. all year-round perfume, badass as fuck, Amélie Bourgeois nailed it. EDIT: to dissipate the tonka bean and reveal the humidor smell, the bottle needs to macerate a little!

I agree with the review below that the rating is suspiciously low. This is a beautiful, robust patchouli scent with a slightly medicinal opening (not ghastly at all) before sweetening and smoothing out. This is my first from the brand and I am pleasantly surprised at the quality of ingredients and bold, crafty blending. The composition has layers and texture, and the performance is great. Edited to add: I am not one who cares about compliments, but this one did garner multiple compliments from random people while I wore it today.

This is the best Patchouli I've ever smelled. OMG ... The opening, the strong Patchouli mid-note , and the incredible , amazing balsamic Patchouli drydown... Maybe , but just maybe ... The longevity could be a little better, but for the price, you can definitely afford to overspray and enjoy. If you're a Patchouli lover as I am , this is just a must buy. You will not regret it. ( I love Montale Patchouli leaves too ... But this is even more magic . ) Hope they'll make an extract de perfume as well.

What a beautiful take on patchouli. I love the soft, nutty quality of the tonka, it almost smells a bit like almond. As it fades it reminds me of sitting in a grassy field in the evening in summer, it has an agrestic vibe.

A beautiful, chocolatey patchouli. Reminds me of a softer version of Angel! LOVE!!!
