What does Dark Patchouli smell like?

It opens with bergamot and vanilla, and the heart brings tobacco, cedar and more vanilla. The base rests on musk, ambergris and patchouli. Oriental and resinous accords soften the sweetness, while the patchouli adds an earthy depth.

Its sillage is moderate, so it stays fairly close and even around the wearer, though the vote count is small and this should be read with caution. Being unisex, it sits comfortably on men and women alike. Cerchi Nell'Acqua Piccolo Amor and Daniel Josier Ambre Tabac share a close profile.
