What does X Patchouli smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, so it stays on skin for a long time and is clearly noticeable. It reads masculine. No season or occasion votes are available, so nothing can be said about when it suits best.

It opens with the warm spice of clove and cinnamon, while chili and jasmine sit in the heart alongside them. The base of moss, patchouli and vetiver pulls the scent towards earth and forest. Green and oriental accords rest on this woody frame. Henry Jacques Merveilleuse de HJ and Le Parfumeur Extravagante have a close profile.
