Eclats de Patchouli

Eclats de Patchouli by the French house Korloff Paris, released in 2021 and composed by Céline Ripert, is a spicy woody scent with a leathery warmth, positioned as a feminine fragrance. Everyone who describes it calls it spicy; about three quarters also find it woody, and a minority notice gourmand, musky, amber or leather sides.

Black pepper and cinnamon open with a dry heat, and saffron adds a honeyed, leathery depth. Plum brings a dark, jammy sweetness that softens the spices, and ylang-ylang adds a creamy floral note. Patchouli is the backbone, earthy and slightly chocolatey, supported by cedar and sandalwood for structure. Leather, amber and musk round off the base with warmth and a smooth, skin-like finish.

Eclats de Patchouli suits autumn and winter and evening wear, and it will appeal to someone who likes patchouli when it is dressed up with spice and fruit rather than left raw and earthy.
