About This Perfume

Franck Boclet Patchouli smells like earthy sandalwood and patchouli in resinous warmth. It opens with cedar, patchouli and sandalwood, moves into benzoin, amber and tonka bean and settles on vanilla and white musk. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

This fragrance is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. It suits nights out. Released in 2013.

Wearers report that it lasts well into the evening, and projects to about arm's length. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something woody and sweet for nights out.
  • Sample first if: earthy is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike spicy fragrances.

Around $150.

How the top picks smell

Franck Boclet Tobacco (Eau de Parfum, 2014) opens with plum and tobacco and ends on vanilla, benzoin and vetiver; overall it reads as sweet plum tobacco with smoky vanilla warmth. For Franck Boclet Cocaïne (Extrait de Parfum, 2017), expect creamy vanilla caramel with spicy tobacco sweetness: caramel and pink pepper up top, monoï, patchouli and vanilla underneath.
