Laboratorio Olfattivo Patchouliful is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Cécile Zarokian. Patchouliful opens with Bergamot, Cinnamon, and Clove, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Iris, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Labdanum. Laboratorio Olfattivo's Patchouliful carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This perfume is a divisive one. It's either an absolute triumph of clean, sophisticated patchouli, or it's a medicinal mess. If you're a patchouli connoisseur, approach with an open mind; if you usually hate it, this is actually worth a sniff.

About

Patchouliful opens with a vibrant, spicy kick of clove and cinnamon, brightened by a whisper of bergamot. This quickly softens into a unique heart, where a 'clean' patchouli is beautifully rounded by creamy frangipani and powdery iris. The base settles into a warm, balsamic musk with a hint of cedar, maintaining a smooth, slightly sweet earthiness throughout its journey. Forget the dank, this is polished patchouli.
