In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Patchouli d'Atlas is a woody spicy patchouli with a bold saffron and cardamom opening, moving into ambered cedar, cashmeran, akigalawood, musk and sandalwood. It reads warm, dry, musky and more polished than earthy.

Reviews →

Bella Bellissima Arabian Rose shifts the typical oud rose formula by injecting a sharp burst of cardamom and tangerine at the start. It wears on skin like a heavy, spiced wool coat, settling into a dark, smoky base of guaiac wood and earthy patchouli. It is built for freezing winter nights and formal evening wear.
