Pros & Cons
- ✅ The best patchouli. This is not a dirty retro but posh Victorian/Imperial. I can smell history. It is a comforting, oriental, spicy, sweet, warm patchouli. Perfectly blended, no edges just one continuous line of fragrance.
- ✅ An absolutely MUST have for patchouli lovers! Patchouli at its best! Very sophisticated fragrance...
- ✅ A Must for Patchouli Lovers. I consider this fragrance a small masterpiece.
- ❌ Decent pachouli, but i would rather just wear coromandel. PI is much dirtier and has a 'scratchy' quality i dont like.
- ❌ Do not believe this is close to Coromandel, I get a simple vetiver/patchouli combo which comes off as a bit smoky and dusty. It's a nice scent but not something I would be on the hunt for.
- ❌ The promise of a beautiful experience with little substance and character when it finally dries down on the skin.
- ❌ The drydown is where it falls apart into the predictable sugary and musky chord of most contemporary fragrances.
- ❌ PI is much dirtier and has a 'scratchy' quality I don't like.
