What does Patchouli smell like?

Bergamot, cardamom, nutmeg and rosewood give it a cool, spicy start. In the heart, patchouli, rose, basil and tonka bean come forward, and the green, earthy side becomes clear. The base of vetiver, oud, sandalwood and vanilla adds a woody, smoky, oriental warmth.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Voters choose it mostly for nights out and evenings, and it is also worn for leisure and business. It suits men and women alike. Tom Ford Oud Wood and Rayhaan Wood Noir have a close profile.
