About this deal

The projection is seriously real and the lasting power is crazy, but the overall feel..mood of this scent is actually quite gentle, restrained. It's smooth, a little dusty and dry but the peony and jasmine give it the smallest hint of floral sweetness that actually makes this, im gonna say it, ultra feminine. To me this smells feminine. Quirky and a little out there yes, but feminine nonetheless. Here patchouli is paired with white florals and spices,and I find the whole composition kind of wiered,I find bergamot and peony fresh here but there is also something heavy and old,something like dead florals or something rotten..it's also sweet with a hint of strange sourness,maybe it's not doing well with my chemistry..I also find it feminine and masculine the same time,sexy and without any sexuality the same time and modern and old fashioned the same time Yes,there is a but here.a huge but...but drydown which doesn't force me wait for a long time,is something I happen to love now!it smells heavenly and I find it one of the most artistically done patchouli scents I have ever had pleasure of smelling

Star rating: 5 stars–outstanding/potential classic, 4 stars–very good, 3 stars–adequate, 2 stars–disappointing, 1 star–poor. Summary : Aquatic Patchouli, Fresh and Clean with a lot of Floral Ideal for everyday scent of Patchouli lover. Middle note features a wallop of cedar balanced by ambrette. Yes at this point I do start to feel as if I've been shopping in the men's department. White Patchouli is not labeled as unisex. Don't tell that to my son who in all his male swag and glory almost fought me for my trail sized sample. I bought a 5ml decant of this just to test it out since i don't usually do patchouli centered scents very often. I just ran out of my beloved Orchid Soleil and since i can't be bothered selling a kidney to replace it right now id instead give this quirky little number a try since its slightly more affordable and not yet discontinued.I never imagined I would so much as like an unapologetically patchouli fragrance, not to mention be unable to stop smelling my wrist once I had sprayed it on myself. White Patchouli is different from pretty much any other patchouli fragrance I've smelled. It is not at all oily, damp, dirty or even earthy-smelling as one might expect from this note. It is instead a crisp, dry and sligtly floral patchouli with a hint of citrus. What this brings to mind is fresh laundry and a breath of winter air, rather than anything earthy. Something about it always comes across cold, which is something that sets it apart. It really feels light.

WP is, like the name, all about the Patch’, but with Tom Fords creation he takes the precarious material and transforms it into something quite unique. It is not an earthy patchouli, but emphasizes the woody camphor aspect, and as a result it is LUMINOUS and aromatic. Notes of coriander, ambrette seed, ylang-ylang, jasmine and methyl tuberose add definition and character. No floral dominates over the other and is very well blended with blonde woods and a kiss of musk and bewitching incense at the drydown. It is thoroughly modern with bohemian flair, No candied strawberry here Ambrette arrives and dims the house lights slightly as she enters, causing everyone to move in a bit closer. Making things a bit more intimate. But the night is still young and the laughter continues. Opening part is very loud and harsh for me but when it calms down,I can wear it and tolerate it but I can't like itStill too manly. I'm going to actually use this as a base for other scents. You know, something worn on the skin to GROUND the scent. (Perfumes never last on my skin, so using this on the skin will perfectly layer). I also recieved some negative comments while wearing this so I decided to put it in my drawer and wait for the right time to give it another try This is quality, refined and sophisticated. I'm just not sure it's me. It's 75% spicy, and 25% white florals IMO. White patchouli is a year round fragrance,better for mild weather since it can be overwhelming in heat The drydown is the BEST part of this frag. I love to smell it on my clothes the day after, or on my skin the next morning... there it reveals what this fragrance should all be about: a soft, clean patchouli helped out by a white lingering musk; this is really beautiful. My big 100ml bottle was decanted several times, so that I could finish it up.

that is, or may reasonably be considered to be, defamatory, libellous, hateful, racially or religiously biased or offensive, unlawfully threatening or unlawfully harassing to any individual, partnership or corporation; And I'm not sure about it... The patch isn't HUGE or hippie/sweaty it's just spicy. This is very masculine IMO. Or else it's def a NIGHT scent on the right woman-- either a cute hippie girl or a very powerful, sexy confident business woman... lol. (I'm never THAT serious when I say who should wear a perfume. Anyone and everyone should wear exactly what they enjoy!) It's sophisticated and very luscious,also easy to wear and versatile at the same time.longevity and sillage are both impressive.I didn't douse myself in it as I usually tend to do so with other perfumes and still I find it's projection satisfying But yeah, i would go as far as saying this is more centered around the rose, with incense and patchouli playing supporting roles. This is completely sugarless,so gourmand lovers just keep that in mind. But that opening; its a bit of a slap isn't it? I kind of like the weird mix of spicy and fresh. Years ago in 2008 I splurged for a FB: it was a blind buy based on some recommendations and on the fact I love patchouli (at the time, before Sephora or Douglas carried the line, TF was not so accessible in Italy, hence the blind buy).

As soon as I sprayed it,I could see why I disliked it,that very sharp opening of bergamot and coriander,while fleshy patchouli and floral sharpness was easy to detect through it.still I'm not fond of the opening part and it smells somehow like cheap-smelling handmade perfume oils which were popular in past where I live,but...
