Patchouli Sauvage
Another amazing fragrance by Houbigant. I ordered a sample set which blew me away. The set contains seven fragrances, which are not just fragrances. But these fragrances, these fragrances that Houbigant creates, those are pieces of art. The day that I find a better fragrance house still has to come. Personally, I hope that day never comes.
Patchouli sauvage, an amazing spring and autumn fragrance which can be worn during summer and winter aswell. The scent is just breathtaking, just like Cologne Intense by Houbigant which is unfortunately discontinued. Patchouli Sauvage opens mostly with the pink pepper and grapefruit, after which I smell the patchouli and bergamot with some woodyness on the background. Despite the woodyness, the fragrance does not give off a warm scent, which makes it in my opinion more wearable during spring, summer and autumn time, than during winter time. The freshness, and greenness of the other notes are superior to the warmth of wood and tonka bean. If I had to guess, maybe 80/20, or 75/25.
I have worn the fragrances a few days in a row to test the sillage, and durability. However now that it is colder weather, I find that this fragrances suits warmer weather better. Think of 15-25, maybe 30 degrees. The durability of this fragrance is great, it sits for at least nine hours on the skin, I do not know after nine hours, because nine hours after spraying the perfume on my wrist I went to bed. The sillage is average, less than one meter, which in my opinion is the best for fragrances.
If you like fragrances which give off some green, earthy, maybe somewhat spicy smell. This fragrance is definetly something to try!! If you like the smell Hermes H24, especially Herbes Vives or the EDP, a designer fragrance which is more accesible in the stores. Then I think that you would really like the smell of this fragrance aswell, which makes it a great option if you are interested in niche fragrances!
