Patchouli Imperial
Description
The story behind this fragrance
Patchouli Imperial unfolds with bright bergamot and mandarin, a citrus spark that quickly yields to spiced warmth—cinnamon and rose meet coriander's herbal edge. The heart softens into amber and tonka's creamy sweetness as sandalwood and patchouli emerge from below, earthy and grounding. Smoke curls through vanilla and cedar, while benzoin adds a resinous depth. The fragrance settles into an ambered, slightly smoky skin scent where sweetness and earthiness blur together.
