Patchouly Teufelsküche Eau de Parfum

Old Swede....
Well, I've already hardened my nose with a lot of things over the course of a few years and I'm used to quite a lot.
I also really like smelling patchouli here and there and so, after a quick sniff of the bottle, I had someone put a (!) spray of this devilish stuff on the back of my hand.
What can I say...it hits you right in the face like a synthetic patchouli fist...and this projection...old administrator...the whole car stank of the stuff, so that even in the coldest temperatures I preferred to drive with the windows open to accept the lesser of two evils...
But even that didn't help and for the first time in my life I was able to experience what it's like when a fragrance makes you sick...and really sick...this extremely synthetic cloud of scent that clung to my nasal mucous membranes so penetratingly that it forced me to go to the nearest service station to have a loud discussion with the bushes.
When I got home, I washed my hands three times, ran myself a bath in the meantime and just wanted it to be over.
After the bath didn't help much either, I sprayed my Lost Cherry over the stuff to sand off those acrid synthetic edges with something sweet and gourmand...
At least that helped me fall asleep and wake up the next morning feeling like I'd survived a psychedelic-induced horror trip.
I'll just say: be careful with this stuff, it's definitely not for everyone and doesn't go away so quickly...
