Ajmal Patchouli Wood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Patchouli Wood opens with Mace, Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Oud, and Patchouli. Ajmal's Patchouli Wood carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Ajmal's Patchouli Wood is definitely for a niche crowd; intensely earthy, dark, and challenging for some, but a comforting and grounding experience for others. It's a statement piece, not a crowd-pleaser, so don't even think about a blind buy.

About

This scent journey starts with a potent hit of raw, earthy patchouli, quickly joined by an undeniably animalic and pungent oud, reminiscent of damp earth and perhaps a touch of the barnyard. Woods and warm spices provide a rich, dark backdrop while subtle floral notes emerge in the heart, adding a fleeting touch of softness before sinking back into a balsamic, smoky, and almost ashy dry-down that lingers with mysterious depth.
