501 praline, licorice, patchouli

by Philippe Romano

Bon Parfumeur 501 praline, licorice, patchouli is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Philippe Romano. 501 praline, licorice, patchouli opens with Hazelnut, Bergamot, and Yuzu, settles into a heart of Iris, Licorice, and Praline, and dries down to a base of Caramel, Patchouli, Cashmere Wood, and Musk. Bon Parfumeur's 501 praline, licorice, patchouli carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is as divisive as its namesake notes. Some will love this sweet, nutty gourmand with its subtle liquorice twist, finding it a cozy and comforting embrace. Others will find the sweetness overwhelming or the liquorice note off-putting, leading to a strong pass.

About

501 opens with a charming burst of hazelnut, softened by a touch of bright yuzu. The heart quickly unfolds into a creamy praline and iris accord, with a whisper of liquorice adding a subtle edge. The dry down is a warm, enveloping blanket of caramel, patchouli, and musk, settling into a comforting, sweet embrace that lingers for hours.
