By the editors · 2 min readPatchouli and rose open together, the leaf’s camphor bite cutting through velvet petals to create an earthy-floral accord that feels both dry and slightly sweet. The heart layers oud’s medicinal funk under the same rose, while galbanum’s bitter-green snap and a smooth amber wash stretch the texture from rough wood to polished resin. Over hours the sandalwood in the base steers the composition away from brute oud towards a creamy, musk-laden wood that still carries a faint patchouli echo. Projection sits at arm’s length, persistent but never loud, and the scent reads richest when autumn air sharpens the amber glow.
