Good friends
I owe it to an extremely charming perfume to be allowed to admire this equally charming classic from the 70s. If you as a vintage friend inevitably come across the legendary Patou pour Homme at some point and rummage a little in the database, you will soon discover that an astonishing number of women's fragrances can be found in the portfolio of the traditional brand around fashion designer and bohemian Jean Patou. So it is not surprising that Eau de Patou found himself more by chance and as an exception in my collection of hearty-male testosterone candidates. But life is good for surprises. Eau de Patou has an aura that is hard to resist and doesn't even want to be.
It starts with cut blades of grass, to which a fruity lemon and a discreet orange are added, which unfolds a sparkling, summery interplay of aromas. Even darker accents of oakmoss are already visible, but remain restrained and leave room for the opening, which is all about sparkling freshness and naturalness.
After this brilliant start, a classic leather look gradually shifts forward, still with a touch of citrus-grass, but a little drier, earthier, slightly sour and also a little sweetly floral. A leather that doesn't come out so clearly and therefore to my taste. The meadow is now a little more wicked. Cuddly is only striped, it remains fresh, slightly fruity and spicy.
Eichenmoos exchanges the piquant blades of grass for a blanket of familiar cosiness and the orange gradually comes to full bloom and noticeably outshines its teammates as the game progresses. It remains a gathering of the finest ingredients that is full of life, glorious because of its clarity and unexcitedness. Contrasts of light and dark are there, but are not overused.
Good friends who leave each other room and invite each other to the ceiling. A fascinatingly beautiful fragrance experience. Absolutely timeless, classic, still groundbreaking. And certainly wearable by Sun Kings. It's a great fragrance
