What does Le Patchouli Élixir / Inoubliable Elixir Patchouli (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Cedarwood and patchouli open woody and slightly smoky, and sandalwood and vetiver carry that earthy feel into the heart. In the base, vanilla, tonka bean, tolu balm and labdanum sweeten it, while white musk softens the edges. The overall impression is spicy, powdery and resinous.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions. Feminine and masculine votes are close, so it reads comfortably on either.
