Most modern fragrances with patchouli use fractionated versions like clearwood with the more dank and musty portions removed from the essential oil. These versions smell cleaner and more transparent and if you don't like the head shop feel of, for example Lush Karma, you don't need to stay away from all perfumes with a patch note. Oakmoss (evernia prunastri) is banned in perfumery because it's an allergen. I love the smell, which to me is exactly like the damp, murky forest floor. Very Macbeth-witchy and fairytale-like.

I bet that the violet, sesame and oakmoss are also contributing to that licorice scent in the Anvers fragrance! Thanks for introducing me to some new brands:) I have a few dark, mysterious fragrances, my favorites are Midnight Fleur by Nest, which is a woodsy vanilla with an amber base, and Fleur Narcotique by Ex Nihilo, which is a boozy, heady fruity floral with lychee and orchid.

Tom Ford Black Orchid gave me a horrible migraine when I tested it out, and I'm wondering now if it's because there are just soooo many notes. My favorite "dark" fragrance (and sort of a guilty pleasure) is Katy Perry's Killer Queen. I love the patchouli in it and it lasts on me forever.

I just put out my Halloween decorations yesterday, because Sept 13th is close enough...right? My favorite fall/winter/Halloween fragrance is Tom Ford's Black Orchid. I absolutely love love love it and look forward to this time of year so I can wear it! In fact, I just put it on before watching this video. My other fav for fall/winter is The Only One by Dolce & Gabbana. I can't get enough of it. I wear Dolce & Gabbana's The One in the spring and summer. They are two of my favorites in my entire collection. But yeah, the Black Orchid is intoxicating to me. I only dab a small amount on my wrists though. It's pretty strong and a few "normal" sprays all over would choke me out!

Ooh I've been so curious about Heretic but did notice they have a lot of patchouli and musks in their scents. Which I have to be very careful with because musk and spice is comes right to the forefront on my skin. And patchouli can smell weirdly sout on me. But i like the idea of a woody smokey twist to some of those basic scents like coconut or vanilla. Sad.
