Electimuss Patchouli of the Underworld is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Kévin Mathys. Patchouli of the Underworld opens with Cistus Incanus, Mandarin, Pepper, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Leather, Patchouli, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Castoreum, Labdanum, and Styrax. Electimuss's Patchouli of the Underworld carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a divisive beast. Some find it a masterful, unique, and ancient-smelling patchouli-leather creation, while others are repelled by its intensity, finding it industrial, medicinal, or just too much. Definitely try before you buy - this isn't a safe blind purchase.

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Date Formal

Its immense projection, longevity, and strong, opulent leather and animalic accords make it unsuitable for an office or casual setting. However, its sophisticated and confident character makes it ideal for formal events or a statement-making night out.

About

Bold, peppery mandarin kicks things off, quickly giving way to a deep, dark plunge into an earthy patchouli and rich leather heart, spiced by carnation. The base emerges with animalic castoreum, resinous labdanum, and smoky styrax, crafting a complex, almost gothic depth. It's a journey from initial brightness to a long-lasting, profound darkness.
