Nice but unexceptional patchouli-vanilla fudge
This is the kind of thing I am more than ready to pass over on my way to more interesting discoveries. It's basically a dulled, floury baking-extract vanilla scent with a touch of patchouli and alcohol at the top. The patchouli departs almost immediately, bringing it with any gravitas or interest the scent may have had. What's left is a plain, doughy vanilla, which is without praise or infamy. It is snuggly and warm, vaguely comforting like all/most vanillas are, but for this price ($140 for 50mls), I would be much happier with something like Un Bois Vanille.
This is far too ordinary and unexceptional for the price being demanded here, and to boot, the sillage and longevity leave much to be desired. Color me underwhelmed (as well as ashamed of myself for spending yet more money on mediocrity.) I am giving this a neutral because it is not unpleasant. Just uninspired, unoriginal, and shamelessly overpriced.
