This is one of those patchoulis that tries to convince you patchouli is “classy,” and honestly… it kinda succeeds.
It doesn’t go earthy or dirty on me. It goes smooth + slightly sweet + creamy, like patchouli got a makeover and now hangs out with amber-vanilla instead of incense and dirt. If you’re expecting a dark, skanky patchouli bomb, you’ll probably be disappointed. If you want “niche but safe” patchouli that still smells expensive, this hits.
Performance is strong, and it’s the type of scent that gets “you smell good” without people saying “why does it smell like patchouli in here?”
