What do reviewers say about Noir Patchouli and Patchouli Blanc?
Patchouli done this dark doesn't apologize. It's not the grungy leaf your parents' closet smelled like, this one's been tamed into something sharper, leathered, worth wearing.Noir Patchouli
Less patchouli punch, more aldehydic elegance than the name suggests. The rose and cashmere wood make this a cozy, powdery embrace rather than earthy or bold.Patchouli Blanc
