Patchouli Reimagined: A Legendary, Mysterious Aroma Revived


Patchouli, one of Tom Ford's most cherished fragrance ingredients, has long been known for its aphrodisiac qualities. It's a legendary, mysterious scent that captivated high society and bohemians alike in the late 1970s.
Patchouli Absolu innovates this traditional and iconic ingredient by blending it with groundbreaking new materials, creating a modern, sensual, fresh woody fragrance. It is truly a modern reinterpretation of patchouli, achievable only by Tom Ford.

At the heart of the fragrance are three botanical notes: "Patchouli Oil," which captures the ingredient's original aroma; "Patchouli Cool SFE," a pure extract; and "Clearwood™," an innovative patchouli derivative used for the first time in perfumery.
By fusing these three components, the unique sensuality of patchouli is elevated to a deeper dimension, creating a distinctive aroma that draws you into an enchanting world.

The top notes present a mysterious blend where fresh bay leaf and rosemary, which might initially seem "refreshing," contrast with the velvety touch of moss.
Following this, the three core ingredients reveal their true character, enveloped in a provocative woody scent.
Finally, the sensuality of tonka bean and amber intertwines with the aroma of musk and supple leather, completing a deep, untamed, and captivating fragrance.
