What does Ippi Patchouli (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters point to autumn and winter, and leisure and evening wear lead the occasions. It reads feminine, though some voters also find a masculine side.

Peach, apricot, jasmine and tuberose give it a fruity, floral front, and coconut turns that into a creamy, gourmand sweetness. Patchouli, labdanum and amber add an earthy, resinous warmth throughout, softened by vanilla and musk. The overall impression is oriental and lightly spicy.
