Mon Patchouly

I am SOOO happy with this "Blind-Buy" purchase! It smells so amazing, very modern and with EXCELLENT all around performance! (Bout damn time the performance matches the reviews for one of MY blind-buys!) This fragrance lasts like 9 to 10 hours in skin and will stick to clothes until the next wash EASILY. It has great sillage and pushes quite well off my skin for atleast 3 hours and then becomes a more moderate, very noticable scent bubble with just 2 to 3 spritzes. Its a very smooth fragrance with no sharp edges and no "Screechiness". Now, Ive made a few regretful, "Pricey" Blind-Buys which have promised great performance yet actually had horrible performance (possibly bc of reformulations) such as Hermes-Bel Ami Vetiver, Gucci Guilty Absolute, and a couple others that've slipped my mind. I am therefore so happy to have FINALLY gotten something that delivers both on amazing scent as well as amazing performance. And YES the Patchouly is very noticable even in the opening, but then as it dries-down the Patchouli does "wrestle for attention" with the gorgeous succulent, almost fruity Jasmine and has a fresh hints of a Salty-Oceanic Breeze accord which is NOT AT ALL "Fishey" or "SeaWeed like" and again, is just there to add an unexpected freshness/contrast to the heavier Patchouly and Jasmine notes. After giving it a full wear Id rate this fragrance (a very rare in my book) 10 outta 10 and I HIGHLY recommend it wether you are a Patchouli lover or not! Thanks for taking time to read my thoughts on the STELLAR Mon Patchouly 😉. Oh and imo Mon Patchouly does lean quite Masculine, atleast on my skin. Also just so folks are aware, the liquid is still that orange/amber color (Batchcode 40454 just made in 2024) and the 3.4oz bottle is a heavy, luxurious glass with a heavy Plastic/Metal Magnetic cap, VEEERY NICE!

So - I've had a few full day wears since I bought this a month and a half ago. It was love at first sniff and since then - loving it more and more everytime I wear this. Heard about this House (and Mon Patchouli) on one of the YouTube Channels that I follow (and like) and he raved about this (He also has posted here under @nikhilsharan) Co-incidentally, it also came up on sale around that time from a local niche perfume store so took that as sign and visited the store. And as they say - the rest is history. I love, LOVE this fragrance. It is hard to describe it but I find it creamy, delicious and delightful. 2-3 sprays is enough for me and I can keep smelling this on me all day. The dry down is beautiful as well. It's been around 4 hours now and it has settled into something really heavenly. I keep sniffing my arm to 'float' to a distant, happy memory - which I can't recollect BUT it's there. Maybe, I'm just happy floating around in that memory cloud and don't want to actually remember it. :) The florals in there are just perfectly blended. There is a slight hint of spice in there and I love it. I don't know what it is BUT it is just amazing too. Last time I wore it, I left the shirt handing in the wardrobe and I could smell it everytime I openend the doors. It truly is an UPLIFTING fragrance. All in all - masterfully blended and perfectly balanced.

this is the ultimate patchouli scent that I have found. I am very impressed with this one, got a small sample to try and I really need to save some money, this would smell gorgeous on a woman as well as a man. thumbs way up. a classy , attractive, elegant and powerful scent. excellent quality. not that it is a loud fragrance but dignified..a man or woman who knows who they are and not afraid to let people know. a real ass kicker. I remember this young lady I went to high school with she wore this patchouly oil or something and it always just smelled so wonderful on her..this is soft enough to wear I could see a sophisticated man wearing this as well definitely a confident man. gorgeous to my nose. one of those that just excites me and puts a grin on my face. beautiful scent, could be among my favorite scents right now! gorgeous! there seems to be a lot more going on with scent than just patchouli. the dry down on this fragrance is truly amazing.. I love this stuff. picking the right time to wear this is the trick.. I think I think if you wear it right not too crazy.. is just a wonderful scent for anyone who wears it. the dry down is more of where I find love for this fragrance. it reminds me a bit of caron's 3rd man , just a bit in the drydown.. more so as time goes on, one of the more complimented scents I have worn in the office. .

Patchouli + Jasmine + Amber An amazing amazing floral amber fragrance. The blend of Patchouli and Jasmine is to die for. Two of my most favorites notes. I owned Coromandel and Tuxedo before this and both i liked because of different sorts of patchouli they offer. Mon patchouli will soon gonna be in my collection as well. Matter of fact, I am thinking of making this my signature scent. It is floral, ambery, dark and mysterious. Lasts a long long time and projection is super amazing. It is a complete fragrance. I was surprised to see the rating on this one. It is highly underrated. In fact this house is kind of underrated. This is heaven for jasmine and patchouli lovers. And along with that, this does not come across as feminine. It is purely unisex and can be worn of by any CONFIDENT woman or man. A person wearing this exudes confidence, someone who does not need a fragrance to define their masculinity or femininity. Someone who is content in themselves, they know who they are and do not seek validation. I tried this scent when i was a beginner in fragrances and could not think of pulling it off. Liked it, but my nose was not this mature. Now i truly understand the beauty of this and truly appreciate what Ramon Monegal created. Do try this out if you get a chance and must try if you like patchouli. Cheers!

This is a surprisingly beautiful patchouly that has a more feminine edge in the opening and for the first hour or so yet it still remains very unisex. This is a different take on patchouly and it works surprisingly well. The leaf gives this a touch of green and it takes off some of the sweet edge of the patchouli. The floral notes soften it and the amber doesn't completely take over and make it announce PATCHOULY like so many of them do, it has a nice balance. It has a much greener quality than I expected but it is a pleasant surprise. This is a very unique fragrance combination, unlike anything I have worn before. I am sort of fascinated by this scent. This is a "safe" patchouly and in no way smells like a hippie. It just smells good. After about 2 hours this takes a turn toward the slightly more masculine but it still remains a very unisex fragrance. It loses the jasmine and floral edge and the oakmoss becomes more prominent. It smells more mossy green with a touch of amber. Sometime after 6 hours it turns more soft and powdery. The patchouly leaf remains a constant throughout all stages. I really like this fragrance a lot.

I have the opportunity to try this perfume since they have included it in a Discovery set that they sent me when I bought another perfume from the brand, flamenco, one of my favorite perfumes. I really appreciate this opportunity as I am generally not a patchouli lover and therefore probably never would have tried this perfume if it were up to me. Mon patchouli naturally smells like patchouli but in a very different way from other patchouli perfumes. It is woody, sweet, dark and medicinal like any perfume like that, but nevertheless in this case it is less chocolatey and lighter, with a much fresher sweetness, which for me makes it addictive. I think you could say that Mon patchouli is my favorite patchouli-centric perfume so far. I recommend it both to those who love patchouli, since they can find it in a different way here, as well as to those who do not.

Mon Patchouly is a good fragrance from Monegal and gives us in part what the title says, the note of patchouli is dense, majestic, with that earthy and humid point that I like so much about this note, it is accompanied by a shy floral note and a powerful note of amber that sweetens everything to excess, running deliberately towards the balsamic-gourmand and making the aroma very resultón. The drying is very durable and monotonous, with a great wake. I find that this deliberate patchouli-gourmand is directed towards the more commercial side of the Monegal collection, following a bit the structure of many fragrances that come to market today, this coupled with the very monolithic little originality of the aroma will make it somewhat boring with use. In any case the composition is not bad and the qualities are quite good. Rating: 7

Disclaimer: I'm not into girly, flowery smells. I thought this would be one. And maybe it is... but... DAMN! I love wearing this. There, I said it. It is too sweet and too flowery to be in my comfort zone, but the frankincense and oakmoss combine with the patchouli perfectly for me. They add a smoky feel which blows me away. The jasmine is pretty strong... but I can't stop sniffing myself. Can't help it, I like it. It has an cloying sweetness which I absolutely HATE in Spicebomb and One Million, but which I love here. I thought maybe I would like it on the wife, since it's unisex, but she can't wear patchouli; most patchoulis go sour on her, and this one does, too. So... this is a scent for me. A guy. Weird. Still sniffing myself. Call me a dirty hippy, I like the patchouli.

Absolutely stunning scent by RM. I own Entre Naranjos so this is my second taste of this house and I am not disappointed. I read through a handful of reviews to see if I am the only one that thinks that this gives off a dark smokey sweet juicy watermelon vibe to go along with the earthy patchouli. I guess I am the only one. It probably is the Jasmine mixed with the amber that is giving me that vibe. Such a delight of a fragrance. And one I will be putting into my collection soon. This is amazing from the opening to the drydown. I can't decide whether I like the opening or the drydown more as both facets are outstanding. On the strength of Entre Naranjos and Mon Patchouly alone make me want to dive deeper into this house.

An underrated gem. After trying a sample, Mon Patchouly really took me by surprise and it was love at first sniff. Transition from the fresh, sweet and a little bit of spicy top to the watery and almost aquatic like jasmine and florals in the middle is so smooth. Probably one of the most beautiful jasmine I have ever smelled. And it ends with a classic woody, ambery chypre style kind of scent. Patchouli is there supporting in every stage of the journey. It’s not in the front and center but you can always detect it’s presence. Despite being heavy on the jasmine, I personally feel it leans a little bit on the masculine side. But women can also pull this off, for sure. It’s definitely going to be a staple in my collection.

Patchouli and Jasmine joined together in a wonderful harmony, who would have thought these two notes would go together so well. It is joined with hints of geranium,amber with a touch of incense but the main interplay is between the Jasmine and Patchouli. It has very good projection and lasts for ages though it is very linear. It's basically these two notes then the jasmine gets powdery in the basenotes. It smells wonderful though can get a little bit annoying after hour five but thats just me. If you can imagine the Patchouli in Givenchy Gentlmen lightened with quality jasmine which is a bit powdery then you basically got it. Smells good and a jasmine that a man can wear with confidence because of the patchouli.

This is a dark, resinous patchouli, it's complex and it sits next to the skin in me. The amber underneath is beautiful, very elegant and it helps this fragrance achieve a classic vibe, despite the patchouli being used in such an innovative way. It's a layered and beautiful creation, with a hint of sweetness only, and the signature wood accords that make RM such a unique house. For all patchouli fans, think of a more masculine, intense version of Clinique aromatics, but you won't be half way there, this is a true unique scent worth the investment if you seriously like Patchouli.

This is a powerhouse unisex fragrance. I agree with someone else who said that it's linear...at least on me it is. The oak moss starts off with a bang but soon settles down and MP moves into a hypnotic patchouli/amber haze from there on. Be prepared for a commitment with this one...one spray is enough for both wrists and stays strong into the next day. I sprayed my wrist at 7:00 last night and at 5:00 p.m. today it's still going on strong. If you like long lasting fragrances this one is for you. It's a hypnotic scent that makes you want to keep smelling it!

A balanced Patchouli that lasts and lasts, but has a smoothness that the Patchouli I remember from the 1960's never had. It certainly works for women as well as it does for men. The Jasmine sweetens its woodiness and the Oakmoss gives it character and prevents 'Mon Patchouli' from being a one-note wonder. I found that I needed only the slightest touch of the spray to last me all day and I suspect that any more would be too much.

Very interesting & unique fragrance. It feels like the jasmine & patchouli are always fighting each other for attention but somehow it works even though it never blends. Also gotta give props as this is a TRUE unisex fragrance. When you smell it you don't know if it leans masculine or feminine, unlike other fragrances that are labeled as unisex but they clearly lean on one side like BR540, GoF, Tobacco Vanilla, etc.

Extra ordinary! very creamy and smells delicious, The vanilla / Frankincense mixed with the patchouly perfectly , Very potent and definitely a compliment getter, 4 sprays and it last all day, I found when I over spray this perfume ; It gives me an upset stomach, Another work of art by RM! Scent 10/10 Silage 10/10 Long lasting 10/10. Thanks,

Patchouli and sweet jasmine – a very interesting and unusual perfume. Deep, woody, earthy, anchored and stable a cloud of jasmine unfurls from its earthy prison and soars into the sky taking me with it, in thrall. A most unexpected beauty and very far from any hippie patchouli associations the name might evoke. Highly recommended.

This fragrance is very succulent lol. There's a kind of juiciness to it despite having no fruity notes. I don't know how else to describe it but it's very beautiful. Glad to see Ramon Monegal finally hitting discounters

STUNNING, a few notes are more than enough to feel the power of this patchouly,real quality, a must if you love patchouly

بار اول حدود ده سال پیش خریدم و شیفته و شیداش شدم. وقتی تمومش کردم کلی دنبالش گشتم و حتی نوبهار که همیشه داشت دیگه تموم کرده بود تااینکه چندماه پیش ابتدای فروردین از انباری نوبهار وزرا یه تسترش برام پیدا کردن و خریدم. تولید قدیم و هیچ مشکلی نداره اما برای من دیگه ابدا اون حس مون پچولی قبلی نداره بلکه گویی اصلا پچولی نداره!! یکبار همین اتفاق درباره دالچه گابانا د وان جنتلمن که بارها تجدید خرید کردم رخ داد یعنی آخرین بار سالهای 96 یا 95 وقتی برای چندمین بار ذ وان جنتلمن گرفتم دیدم ابدا بوی خوش اسپایسی فلفل سیاه و کمی وتیور اولشو حس نمیکنم و هیچ چیزی جز بوی وانیل اونم یه وانیل به اصطلاح بی کیفیت و چیپ که گویی مونده و دیگه غیر این بویی حس نمیکردم. هدیه دادم به دوستم(همراه باتلی از بولگاری اکوا آمارا و مونا دی اوریو وانیل تولید وینتج!) خانم دوستم واله و شیداش شده بود و همواره هردوی د وان جنتلمن و اکوا امارا رو از همسرش میخواست براش بخره اما مونا دی اوریو وانیل که شاهکار وانیل تاریخ عطر به دلش ننشست(من از بوی وانیل بیزارم ولو مونادی اوریو وانیل) نمیدونم کسی چنین تجربه ای داشته یا خیر؟ ضمنا شک ندارم ریفرموله و یا فیک بودن عطرها در کار نبوده و مشکل از تجربه .بویایی خودم که شاید بخ دلیل مصرف بیش از حد سیگار و تاثیرات محیطی دیگه باشه. بعد التحریر: الان که چندروز هوا مقداری سردتر شده(انصافا تهران امسال زمستان نداشت) دارم از مون پچولی استفاده میکنم و بیشترین بویی که ازش میگیرم یکی یاس-اگرچه یاسی متفاوت که تلخی اش کاسته و با مقداری شیرینی که باید از پچولی یا عنبر باشه آمیخته است- و پچولی هم ابدا هیچ شباهتی به نت محبوب من که پچولی باشه و در کارهایی مانند پچولی لورنزو ویلورسی با آن لطافت و وضوع نابش یا کارهایی نظیر سایکدلیک جووی و حتی پرایوت لیبل با حالت هارش و یا پچولی در پچولی بوهم ال ام که حالتی بیمارگونه و بسیار سمی اما انصافا مطلقا یونیک, و دهها کار پچولی محور نیش دیگه ای که از پچولی نرم و متفاوت نیکلای کریچر بگیر تا پچولی کلاسیک در جیونچی جنتلمن کلاسیک شبهتی نداره. اینم اضافه کنم یکساعت از شروع کار می گذره کار بهتر میشه و کلا درای داون کار متفاوت از اوپنینگ اش و خوب راستش در فرایند درای داون وضوع نت ها و تشخیص و تمیزشان بهتر میشه و کلا کیفیت کار هم در حد نام رامون مونگال که کارهای عالی کم نداره.اما بازم من اون تجربه پیشین را از این عطر ندارم و چه بد
