Olfactory description
IIndispensable and irreplaceable, Patchouli Essential Oil is a major woody note. Starting with an almost dusty peppery effect, spicy enough to recall cocoa pods, evaporation reveals a round and warm heart. Inviting the exploration of an undergrowth strewn with dried leaves and roots, the scent continues its journey towards even more woody and wild olfactory grounds, letting fascinating musky volutes dominate.
