Jean Patou Un Amour de Patou is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1998, created by Jean-Michel Duriez. Un Amour de Patou opens with Green, Bergamot, Mahogany, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk and Sandalwood. Jean Patou's Un Amour de Patou carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive floral with a polarising mahogany note, Un Amour de Patou either smells like a unique woody wonder or a celery catastrophe. Best snap up a vintage bottle if you want to find out for yourself, as it's discontinued.

About

Un Amour de Patou opens with a sharp, green aldehydic blast, quickly joined by an unusual mahogany note that sets the stage for a unique floral experience. The heart blossoms with a classic bouquet of rose, lily of the valley, and jasmine, offering a fresh yet refined elegance. As it settles, a soft base of sandalwood and musk provides a creamy, warm finish, grounding the floral vibrancy with sophisticated depth.
