L'Artisan Parfumeur Patchouli Patch is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2002, created by Bertrand Duchaufour and Evelyne Boulanger. Patchouli Patch opens with Caraway, Musk, Patchouli, and Star Anise, settles into a heart of Iris and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. L'Artisan Parfumeur's Patchouli Patch carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Patchouli Patch is a divisive one, a chameleon that will either soothe your nerves and envelop you in earthy elegance or leave you questioning if you've stumbled into an acupuncturist's office. It's a true patchouli lover's game: for some, it's the holy grail, for others, just too 'raw'.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its earthy, woody nature with moderate sillage makes it interesting for casual wear and dates, but potentially too unique or strong for a conservative office. While elegant, it lacks the brightness often desired in formal settings or the freshness for sport.

About

A complex study in patchouli, this fragrance opens with a bold, earthy hit, spiced by star anise and caraway, giving a warm, aromatic character. Undercut by a delicate iris and the subtle fruitiness of osmanthus, it mellows into a woody base of vetiver, sandalwood, and cedar, offering a sophisticated, almost powdery finish. It evokes a natural, sometimes medicinal, yet always intriguing presence.
