Intoxicating. Tasty. Chic. Inspired by the deep and sensual notes of patchouli, Fabrice Pellegrin has composed a fragrance with sensual and mysterious lines. In the opening, the fresh, gourmand and aromatic notes of davana and green hazelnut blends with the spicy woody note of coriander seed. The warm, gourmand heart offers an addictive dose of cocoa, balanced with the deep, woody notes of clearwood and tea. Finally, the woody, warm and earthy base reveals a mysterious patchouli in harmony with the sensuality and roundness of vetiver and cetalox, for a deep and bewitching trail. “I imagined a sensual patchouli, at once addictive, deep and mysterious. The composition finds a balance between the richness of patchouli and the powdery sweetness of cocoa” - Fabrice Pellegrin

A well-balanced, earthy patchouli with warm spice, aromatics and a unique hazelnut and cacao accord — modern, clean and unisex, for year-round wear.

Editor's Notes

Perfume is an evolving industry, and as new technologies enable new qualities of natural (and synthetic) materials, it is possible to revisit beloved notes in a renewed light. There can be no doubt that Patchouli Mania is a contender for a benchmark patchouli, celebrating modern synthetics as it fuses natural patchouli oil with Clearwood, an ingredient that adds beaming light to the already warm and ambery-woody character of the natural material, deepening its woody, balsamic, and resinous (sesquiterpene) tones. Ambery Cetalox in the base adds familiarity and a tell-tale sense of modernity, but is dosed finely by the perfumer so it never distracts nor detracts from the hero note - instead, it is part of the secret to the scent’s body and trail.

That said, the patchouli here needn’t be big or burdensome in order to be the hero note, and is marvellously lean yet impactful. Cocoa is a usual bedfellow, as is spice, which is in this instance the addictively long and fresh hum of coriander seed. Note the persistent hazelnut feature right at the beginning, which drives top-down in this scent, as well as tea - which adds another dimension of green to this fragrance, whilst its dry tannins feign a leatheriness, complementing the patchouli note. Patchouli Mania is a special creation, as layers of earthiness converge in a truly beautiful way.
