Crisp citrus and blackcurrant open Swiss Arabian Patchouli 01, which then settles onto earthy patchouli and vanilla. The top is busy and fresh: aquatic notes, bergamot, blackcurrant, grapefruit, cardamom, lavender and pink pepper. The heart adds elemi, geranium, lily of the valley, mint, orange blossom and pineapple. Underneath sit cashmere wood, cistus, frankincense, oak, patchouli, tonka bean and vanilla.
This unisex eau de parfum works day or night, in any season, and the community reaches for it on nights out. It lasts a long time and projects enough to fill a room. Opinion is fairly split and blind-buy safety is below average, likely because the fresh-to-earthy shift is quite pronounced.
Around $68.
