    Real talk

    Patchouli done the Barcelona way, earthy and honest, with none of the hippie clichés. The geranium keeps it from getting heavy. The olibanum adds something almost smoky, almost resinous.Mon Patchouly
    If you want the Moroccan desert in a bottle, this is it. Tobacco, honey, and incense create something rugged yet sweet. Not for those who prefer clean, aquatic fragrances.Chergui
