What do reviewers say about Fields of Rubus and Patch Flash?
This isn't a fragrance that flatters you into wearing it. Patchouli isn't playing second fiddle, it's the spine. The raspberry opens sweet, but the drydown keeps pulling back.Fields of Rubus
Patch Flash makes the case that patchouli doesn't have to be a statement piece. Andy Tauer built it around 40% natural patchouli, yet it wears quietly, warmly.Patch Flash
