The full profile.
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.
