A lot of patchouli, very little flower
I first tried this yesterday and had to wash it off right away. But I was also in the last stages of a migraine, and it was just too much at the time. I tried again this morning. It's mostly tangy fruit and patchouli at the top. It's strong! It dried down into some type of fruity, sweet sort of synthetic feel. The florals *are* there, they just are not prominent (on me). I wished for more florals. Patchouli reigns at the top and in the heart.
Longevity is a problem. After that first strong blast, it fades away within 4 hours. Sillage lessens, too. Now I can barely smell it on my arm. It's just a faint trace of vanilla, and I'm still picking up a bit of patch.
Overall, this is just barely average. It is not memorable, it is not inspiring; in short, it is nothing new. It's fairly safe for work and church, as long as you wait 30 minutes! I got it for $19.99 at TJMaxx. I flirted with returning it, but maybe I need to give it another round. I'll edit this review if it improves upon me!
Bottom line: if you like patchouli, this is your scent! "Pink Patchouli"!
EDIT 8/28/2017: It never improved or impressed me, so I've swapped it away.
