What does 08 Intrigant Patchouli smell like?

Most voters recommend fall and winter, and it is chosen most often for evenings and nights out. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it sits comfortably on either.

The bright citron, lemon and mandarin orange open into a heart of Mysore sandalwood and patchouli. The base of honey, cinnamon, ginger and amber turns warm, sweet and resinous, with earthy and animal tones keeping the sweetness in check. Armani Privé - Ambre Soie and Calypso St. Barth Calypso Ambre have a close profile.
