Patchouli Memory

UnisexBy Jordi FernándezRated 4.5/5 · 58 reviews

bergamot · clary sage · pink pepper

Patchouli Memory opens on bergamot and clary sage, then pink pepper wakes the air. A heart of ylang-ylang and jasmine melts into nutmeg. The base, woody and earthy, rests on patchouli, labdanum and vanilla. Wear it in autumn or winter, when evenings stretch long and the trail lingers around your scarf.
