What does Patchouli smell like?

Its sillage is rated good, though that rests on only a small number of votes. There are no votes on longevity, seasons or occasions. As a unisex scent, it sits comfortably on both men and women.

It opens with violet leaf and coconut milk, light and milky. The heart brings rose, ylang-ylang, iris, patchouli and cedarwood together, floral and woody at once. The base of frankincense, labdanum, amber, vanilla and myrrh turns sweet, earthy and smoky. Yves Rocher 8ᵉ Jour and Il Profvmo Patchouli Noir share a close profile.
