Opens with a blast of pure unadulterated, earthy and potent patchouli; a little damp and chocolatey. It reminds me of my teenage days, walking out of the Fresh Garbage shop with the beautiful 4711 still clinging to the inside out my nostrils, and into the head-shop across the way, where you were greeted with a punch of patchouli to the face.
After 20mins it begins it settle and quieten. And it is beautiful! The M01 comes through adding a little sweet woodiness to it and it becomes a fresh and clean, yet deep and sensual patchouli with an ambery woody base. Wonderful stuff, such a good blend and absolutely delightful on my skin. Projects well but not overbearing. Elegant. I’d say unisex, leaning slightly masculine to my unintentionally socially conditioned nose. Have really enjoyed wearing this and will wear it again.
If you hate patchouli, this isn’t for you. If you love patchouli, I highly recommend checking this out if you haven’t done so already.
