An olfactory
The fragrance welcomes us with a fascinating and opulent contrast. The spicy incisor and warm smell nail magnally merges with the velvety and slightly bitter texture of the almond. This unusual opening prepares the senses, providing a spicy creaminess that softens the initial impact of the woods.
In the heart, the Patchouli reveals its most aristocratic facet. Far from being earthy or humid, it is rich, deep and structured. To illuminate this darkness, the pink displays a romantic and fleshy elegance, while the geranium brings a subtle menthol greenery that oxygenates the composition and gives it a perfect balance.
Drying is an authentic long-lasting oriental symphony. Gaiac wood introduces a slightly smoked and exotic, which melts with the dairy softness of the sandalwood. The resinous rope, the golden amber and vanilla weave a deeply warm, sweet and seductive bed, creating a magnetic wake that caresses the skin for hours.

Inspiration
Belonging to the majestic "Black Collection", Essence of Patchouli is born of the desire to rediscover and dignify one of the most iconic ingredients of perfumery. Gian Luca Perris proposed to create a pure extract that will celebrate the natural wealth of the eastern leaf, dressing it with the noblest woods and the warmer resins to return his status by authentic aristocratic jewel.
The protagonist notes
The Nail and the Almond they configure a bold output, where the exotic spicy softens with creamy and gourmand textures.
The Patchouli it is associated with a classically and infallible with the Pink and the Geranium, conforming a floral-wooded heart of an undeniable sophistication.
The Gaiac, the Ládano and the Vanilla orchestrate a smoked, resinous and sweetly amber drying that seals the composition with opulence.
The vision of Perris Monte Carlo
The vision of the Monegasca house was to transform the patchouli into velvet. By enriching it with sandalwood oil and Gaiac wood (a dense wood with nuances to leather and smoke), and strategically sweetening it with a downturn, managed to domesticate the wild leaf, creating a fragrance that flows over the skin like a dark and intoxicating liquor.

Expert tips: the art of perfumer
Thermal activation of resins: The rope, vanilla and Gaiac wood are high weight molecules that love heat. For the Amber and Resinous Fund to project all its sweetness and depth, apply the fragrance in the areas of greater blood flow, such as the interior of the elbows and the center of the chest. The constant body heat will act as a diffuser that will melt metaphorically amber throughout the day.
Textile anchor of Gaiac wood: This sacred wood has subtle nuances to leather and smooth smoke that adhere dramatically to natural fibers. Vaporize a slight mist in the lining of your wool coat or in a cashmere scarf will allow the perfume to create a very comforting winter olfactory signature, prolonging the life of the patchouli for weeks in its closet.
The art of Layering of contrast: If at some time it considers that the beloved density of the Patchouli is too heavy for a daytime event, Essence de Patchouli is a wonderful base for overlapping. Spray this perfume first and then apply on top of a pure floral (like a fresh rose) or a vibrant citrus (as Bergamotto di Calabria). The freshness of the output notes will contrast beautifully with the warm background, creating a perfume to a dynamic and radiant measure.
