Patchouli 24 is a Woody Chypre fragrance for women and men. Top note is Patchouli; middle notes are Birch and Styrax; base note is Vanilla. Even though it is vital to the olfactory shock this perfume generates, Patchouli is not easy to detect in this formula. The smoky, leathery character of birch takes over in the first few seconds, making this signature absolutely unique and difficult to situate. Fortunately, a touch of vanilla comes in to calm this little world, bringing peace, sensuality and softness to these provocative notes. A scent filled with danger for those of us who like to walk a tight rope…

At first, I wasn’t sure about it – it was supposed to be patchouli but it doesn’t smell much of it. It is somewhat leathery with quite a bit of clove and carnation to create the impression of old musty library. The robustness of the formula is phenomenal – it has great projection even at low dilution, structurally it is not too sweet and not too cloying, and it does have a distant connection to Lonestar Memories without the birth tar or guaiacol. I did not like it in the beginning but the more I smell it, the more I am liking it. A recommendation – this has to be smelled in dilution – as a concentrate, it is too muddy to appreciate.

While my scent memory always connects this scent with Bulgari Black, looking at the formulas, it’s so interesting to see just how different they are! And it makes me wonder what connects them in their olfactive profiles. In any case, I found this formula really true to Le Labo scent. I was surprised by the Iso Eugenol/carnation type materials used here, but they make total sense when you think of them as already being smoky and then enhanced by birch tar. Well done and just smells great (agreed with the above review–definitely in dilution)!
