Le Labo Patchouli 24 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Annick Menardo. Patchouli 24 opens with Patchouli, settles into a heart of Birch and Styrax, and dries down to a base of Vanilla. Le Labo's Patchouli 24 carries an Acquired verdict, a leather-led wear.

Prepare yourself for a divisive olfactive journey. This ain't your grandma's patchouli; it's a bold, unapologetic smoke bomb that some will adore, others will find utterly repugnant. If you want BBQ on your skin, you've found its spiritual home.

About

This one opens with an intense blast of smoky birch and styrax, reminiscent of smouldering logs and crackling campfires, with a distinct leathery undertone. Forget green or earthy patchouli; here it's almost camouflaged beneath layers of tarry, woody richness. As it settles, a soft, creamy vanilla emerges in the base, attempting to smooth out the initial ruggedness, but the persistent smoky-leather accord remains front and centre, eventually drying down to a surprisingly sensual wood-fire scent.
