White Patchouli from Tom Ford, released in 2008 and developed with Givaudan, is a pale, floral take on patchouli. Everyone describes it as floral, about half as woody, and a minority as spicy, musky, amber and citrusy.

It opens with bergamot for a citrus lift, white flowers and peony for a fresh, clean floral tone, and coriander for a light, slightly citrus spice. The heart brings rose and jasmine for a soft floral body, with ambrette adding a warm, slightly fruity musk. The base is where the patchouli appears, earthy and dark but softened by the flowers, joined by incense for a dry smoke and woody notes for structure.

People report long-lasting to moderate wear and a moderate to strong trail. Votes are spread across autumn and spring and split fairly evenly between day and night, which suits the office, dinners and cool days. It fits someone who likes patchouli but wants it clean, floral and elegant rather than heavy and hippie-style.

White Patchouli — unisex fragrance by Tom Ford (released 2008). Top notes: White Flowers, Coriander, Peony, Bergamot. Heart notes: Ambrette (Musk Mallow), Rose, Jasmine. Base notes: Patchouli, Woody Notes, Incense. — Parfica open fragrance database
