Patchouli Homme Parfums de Nicolaï for men

Patchouli Homme starts masculine and sweeps through a floral cascade and then gone. It gets lost in my skin very quickly.
I have reapplied and await the result.
5 hours later and not a hint for the last 3.5 hours.
It's a shame because I think it smells awesome.

I’ve read in the press and can even smell in the fragrance that Patchouli Homme has notes of patchouli, rose, geranium. I don’t so much get the amber and vanilla people refer to. But for all the world, PH smells to me like getting hit in the nose. It you’ve ever been punched or smacked your nose, you might have experienced a similar smell/feeling that is like nothing else I’ve ever smelled. It feels crunchy, smells a little celery-salty, and I imagine it results from trauma to olfactory receptors and not really from aroma. But given the nature of the nose, I experience it as a scent.

Patchouli Homme is this smack-in-the-nose scent and rose. I’m really working on this one and trying to find my way to it, since I trust Patricia de Nicolai’s nose more than my own and just love her work in general. But I’m not there yet.

Maybe more to follow.

I love it! but it's more than a classic patchouli and I think this name doesn't suit this scent well. I smell in it rose, patchouli, incense, wood and vanilla... When I wear it, it's like I was out of the world, far away from a modern way of life; but Patchouli pour homme is not old: it's only another dimension of time, between or beside ages... An elegant and uncommon fragrance.
Two sprays a day are enough and you will feel confortable.

Wow, this is HORRENDOUS. Patchouli Homme is not a patchouli scent, it doesn't smell masculine, and it doesn't smell good, period.

Whatever patchouli is in this fragrance is pushed into the background by some of the loudest floral and herbal notes I've ever encountered. This smells like a brash, poorly made green chypre mixed with some Italian salad dressing. It smells harshly herbal and sour, not aromatic like a real patchouli scent should smell. This is a pounding, ascerbic herbal floral fragrance, not a patchouli. It smells loud, vinegary and annoying as hell, just like Nicolai Pour Homme.

Patchouli Homme requires a full-body scrub-down to get the smell off of me. This is a terrible fragrance.

MY RATING: 1/10

this is very strong stuff, well, most of the fragrances that i have purchased from luckyscents,sometimes at first smell,one would say way to strong,i have notice this with Pdn and most other fragrances from luckyscent im still learning about fragrances notes and the one thing wait for the drydown thats when you will find the true scent of great well made fragrace,colognes,scents and if you like patchouli this has a lot of that and like i said wait for the meltdown you will find mor then just the patchouli this is a awesome way for them to make this one its cool if you love patchouli check it out but this ones going to cost igot mine from luckyscents search out youcould find some whear less pricey to me worth it
