What does Patchouly Bohème smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring and summer well behind. It is favoured for evenings and nights out, and leisure wear gets a fair share too. Though sold as unisex, most voters read it as masculine.

It opens with Egyptian geranium leaf and precious woods. The heart brings leather, Virginia tobacco and Indonesian patchouli, turning the scent earthy and smoky. In the base, tonka bean, musk and tolu balm soften the dryness, leaving a sweet, resinous warmth.
