Patchouli Gourmand
Patchouli Gourmand by Fragrance Du Bois is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with pink pepper, lemon and sweet orange, moves into rum, marshmallow, cocoa and cardamom and dries down to tonka bean, patchouli, vanilla and sandalwood. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
Heart
- Rum Boozy, sweet and warm. Adds a grown-up edge to gourmands.
- Marshmallow Soft, sugary and pillowy. Pure comfort.
- Cocoa Dry, dusty chocolate. Bitter rather than sweet.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Dry-down
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
