Who Patchouli Sandalwood Suits
Best for: anyone who wants a woody fragrance with real depth, patchouli's earthiness carried by a sandalwood base that keeps it smooth rather than dirty. Sample first if: you're new to patchouli, since it can read as heavier or more medicinal on some skin than the bottle suggests. Skip if: you want something bright and fresh. A pick from Fresh will serve you better than anything filed under this combination.
