Kool-aid patchouli

I am sure that the Indonesian patchouli Monegal used here is fabulous - dank, hoary, spirit of the earth, etc. It's just that I can't really smell it for all that syrupy grape Kool-Aid (jasmine + fruity Maltol-soaked amber) slicked over the top. And for once, the oakmoss doesn't perform its saving grace of sucking everything back into the inky, velvety undergrowth (which might have calmed the shrill frooti-tooti honk of the jasmine-amber). Instead it accentuates an unfortunate aftershavey bitterness I associate with men's sporty colognes, which in turn creates the impression, whether founded or not, of the dreaded aquatic. Abhorrent, pretentious niche 'filler' that demonstrates that even raw materials advertized by the company as being 'of special origin' (as if they weren't all bought off the same Givaudan or IFF shelf) - Yugoslavian oakmoss, Indonesian patchouli, Somalian frankincense, Egyptian jasmine, etc. - can turn to shit in the hands of a perfumer who doesn't know when to stop.

Patchouli for all!

I have the opportunity to try this perfume since they have included it in a Discovery set that they sent me when I bought another perfume from the brand, flamenco, one of my favorite perfumes. I really appreciate this opportunity as I am generally not a patchouli lover and therefore probably never would have tried this perfume if it were up to me.
Mon patchouli naturally smells like patchouli but in a very different way from other patchouli perfumes. It is woody, sweet, dark and medicinal like any perfume like that, but nevertheless in this case it is less chocolatey and lighter, with a much fresher sweetness, which for me makes it addictive.
I think you could say that Mon patchouli is my favorite patchouli-centric perfume so far. I recommend it both to those who love patchouli, since they can find it in a different way here, as well as to those who do not.
