About

Shrub Of Asia is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Iris Patchouli. It opens with Coconut, Violet Leaf, leads into a heart of Patchouli, Iris, Cedar, and dries down to Amber, Frankincense, Labdanum. The overall character is powdery with woody and fruity facets. Rendered for value, it is a little simpler and quieter than the designer version, yet faithful to the core character and easy to reach for day to day.
