PowderyWhat does Vibrant Patchouly smell like?
It opens fresh and juicy with melon, lychee and peach leaf. In the heart, orange blossom, freesia, lily of the valley and peony build a floral layer. Patchouli, oakmoss and vanilla take over the base, and the scent softens into a woody, powdery, lightly spicy warmth.
Longevity is moderate and sillage is good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evening and leisure the most named occasions. It reads feminine.
