A. N. OTHER
Ultimate Patchouli is an elegant, fresh, and delicately spicy fragrance that plays with the contrast of light citrus, florals, and a soft woody base.
The opening consists of bergamot, ambrette, and saffron flower – a combination that feels clean, lightly citrusy, and subtly spicy. Perfumer Catherine Selig says: “The heart is French Rose Absolute from Grasse. The petals are hand-picked before sunrise to retain the morning dew.”In the heart, pomegranate and peony further unfold. The notes are soft, floral, and lightly fruity, with a subtle juiciness. The base is composed of patchouli cœur, suede, and skin musk. This layer is smooth, creamy, subtly earthy, and long-lasting.
Overall, Ultimate Patchouli comes across as a modern, clean, and elegant fragrance that combines tradition with a minimalist contemporary style. It is a fragrance that relies on the quality of its ingredients and a subtle, cultivated composition. It is perfect for summer – from the beach to a summer wedding.
