Boucheron Patchouli d'Angkor is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Nathalie Lorson. Patchouli d'Angkor opens with Bergamot and Pear, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, and Guaiac Wood. Boucheron's Patchouli d'Angkor carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one is a divisive mistress. Don't expect a typical earthy patchouli hit; this is a clean, powdery, pear-led floral that’s more about soft luxury than an arousing, full-bodied experience. Some find it addictive and relaxing, others find it headache-inducing and boring. Go figure.

Its soft sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for office and casual wear, as it won't overpower. While some find it feminine and date-appropriate due to the sweet jasmine and pear, others consider it too 'old' or not unique enough for formal settings. The powdery and musky nature doesn’t lend itself to active wear.

About

Opens with an unexpected juicy burst of pear and bright bergamot, quickly softening into a sweet, feminine jasmine heart with a subtle hint of spicy pepper. The namesake patchouli is a phantom here, blending into a creamy, powdery musk and soft guaiac wood base that leans clean and almost soapy. The overall impression is a gentle, sweet floral with a quiet woody-musky dry down.
