What does Patchouli (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens fresh and floral with geranium, neroli and orange. Patchouli takes over at the heart and sets an earthy, woody ground. In the base, sandalwood, musk and vanilla soften and sweeten it, leaving a warm, oriental finish.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring further behind. It leans towards leisure and evening wear. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters read it as somewhat more masculine, though many see it as feminine. It shares a close profile with Les Néréides Patchouli Précieux and Miller Harris L'Air de Rien.
