Community take

Limited community signal on this one. Take with a grain of salt.

Skip unless you are a fan of bold patchouli scents; better-loved options exist.

Too new for a strong community consensus yet. Early reviews mention a rich, earthy patchouli scent with nutty and warm spicy undertones. Some users appreciate the unique combination of hazelnut and cacao, while others find it too heavy or overwhelming. It seems to be more favored by those who enjoy bold, earthy fragrances, but some general buyers may find it challenging. The fragrance is suggested for cooler weather and evening wear, given its depth and warmth.
