Persephone's Patchouli
Persephone's Patchouli by Electimuss is an unisex extrait de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with cardamom, plum and pomegranate, moves into patchouli, jasmine and bulgarian rose and dries down to honey, sandalwood, cedarwood and ambergris. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
- Pomegranate Tart, juicy and jewel-red. Sharper than most berries.
Heart
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Bulgarian Rose Fresh, dewy and green. The 'real rose garden' version.
Dry-down
- Honey Sweet, waxy and slightly animalic. Can smell dirty in large doses.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
