Suprised Patchouli scent!

Normally I avoid patchouli scents. I got the chance to test all 6 (untill today) Christian Provanzano parfumes and was not hot about the patchouli before testing it.
I was suprised by the opening, it was not that heavy patchouli what makes me dizzy, but fine wel balanced fruity patchouli. In time it gets better and better.
I will go for a full bottle adding to my collection for sure. This can be a huge succes from Christian Provenzano!

A Masterpiece

Patchouli Noir is a masterpiece of a perfume for me!!!
This perfume captures pure elegance in a bottle for me.
Patchouli Noir starts off very berry-like, underlaid with patchouli.
A sweet berry mix that gains more and more spiciness as it develops.
I can also smell the patchouli well.
But it is used so sensually.
Wow, I am speechless!!!
So I see the scent on an "adult" woman.
She is very self-confident and is not unsettled by the gazes of others.
A beautifully graceful fragrance.

Here comes the big star ....

What a truly opulent fragrance. After the first spray, you are enveloped in a cloud of the finest patchouli. This scent permeates the large space and lingers like a majestic figure within it. Slightly fruity notes accompany the rose and jasmine. Here, a fine pairing takes place. This perfume becomes even more opulent, demanding a grand entrance. Like a diva waiting for her performance in an elegant black lace dress trimmed with precious old velvet. Small black gemstones have been carefully attached to her dress by hand with the finest, most precise stitches; with every step, it rustles and sparkles. She enters the room, and everyone holds their breath, gazing in awe like a child with wide eyes and an open mouth. What a beautiful woman, everything about her is precious, noble, and special... and her perfume paralyzes instantly. Deep and dark, the scent trail winds its way into our hearts and captivates us. Musk, vanilla, and amber soften it, but the patchouli overshadows everything, and you take a bit of her fragrance home with you. This feminine being, as if from another world, with this cool sexiness - but with eyes that shoot lightning, is not easily forgotten. The scent lasts what feels like 2 days and announces to everyone... here I come, and for my performance, I need a big stage, give it to me. I deserve it.
I see this powerful fragrance on a woman, not a girly girl. It takes a bit of self-confidence to wear it - no, to present it, that’s the right word. A beautifully stunning bottle rests in a black outer box. It reminds me of the fragrances of the 80s, which were very present, lasted incredibly long, and made a statement. Please dose carefully, this is like pure unadulterated perfume; less is more!
I find it a particularly special gift from my dearest to receive this fragrance. Wow, the scent is an experience. It has its price, but doesn’t everything special?

Patchouli I !!!!!! never

That's what I thought, and I was also convinced that I could never like a patchouli scent.
I would have almost bet my head, which would no longer be there now.
Moreover, patchouli gives me extreme headaches, and I am not the only one; others feel the same way.

Well, when this fragrance came into my hands, I cautiously sniffed it and was extremely surprised by how soft and pleasant this patchouli smelled.
It is a completely different warm and soft patchouli than I have ever smelled before.
It really comes down to the formulation, meaning how much is used and the quality of the materials.
The berries or red fruits are only perceptible for a very short time at the beginning; I cannot find or sniff bergamot.

I also cannot perceive the roses and jasmine individually.

Since labdanum is also included, I suspect it is responsible for this softness and creaminess.
Describing it is really not possible; all the components are too wonderfully intertwined.

So this mysterious scent is wearable daily, regardless of whether male or female; I just wouldn't wear it in temperatures over 35 degrees. At other temperatures, it's not a problem.
I can't describe it better. So a clear recommendation for testing for anyone who likes patchouli.

What should also be mentioned is that it is the winner of the 'Best Niche Fragrance 2018' competition at the Global Beauty Awards.
