Lush Perfumes Lord of Misrule is an amazing patchouli fragrance with vanilla, a little bit of black pepper, and a great patchouli note. Love it.

[@Nfvlmv]

I've actually messaged him before asking him if he's ever tried Lord of Misrule before because it's a very potent patchouli forward fragrance. I think it makes a great enhancer.

[@barblue3]

How come it’s so inexpensive though?

[@ericlee419]

concur!

[@LDMTX6]

Patchouli leaves the best scent trail. Even the pure essential oil is a whole perfume within itself that can easily fill a room. Magical stuff.

[@Dukiduledoozy]

Patchouli Leaves is a stunner, I couldn't live without a bottle.

[@DavidGarcia-zu3hl]

Great video, thank you for sharing. Suggestions for other notes to highlight...and I do like the videos you make that do this.... Tobacco, Cognac, Whiskey, Brandy, Iris, Jasmine, Tuberose, Chocolate, Incense, Animalic, Plum, Apple, Cumin, Cloves, Vanilla.

[@photoaholic]

Frederic Malle Monsieur. is my favorite patchouli fragrance, and allegedly has the highest concentration of patchouli of any fragrance!

[@allenlinares8758]

Highly questionable

Nicolai patchouli intense is a beast. Stays on forever

[@14me]

Patchouli Reminiscence my best! Great list Seb.

[@RodneyBoyd]

Love Patchouli! I live in South Florida. Which ones would you pick for a hot Florida summer?

[@bjr1657]

I love patchouli! My current favorites are Chanel Coromandel, Serge Lutens Borneo 1834, and Electimuss Persephone's Patchouli.

[@samygirltv]

Patchouli Magnetik, Velvet Haze, and Vanilla Royale Sugared Patchouli are my for life fragrances. Going to try Patchouli Nosy Be and Coromandel next.

[@Antoinettescloset]

I LOOOOOOVE Patchouli. I know when Patchouli is in a fragrance I am guaranteed to like it. Thank you for the video!

[@tracysheppard2426]

Patchouli is also my favorite note- I have many. The best I have ever smelled is Serge Lutens Borneo 1834. Similar to Psychedelique and Reminiscence but smoother and richer.

[@storkonstage]

I adore patchouli. The natural oil is so great for layering. The Jovoy is also my favourite. I got so many compliments for the Reminiscence. The discontinued H&M Patchouli Makassar is also very good. Especially the dry down. 🌱

[@arnaudpollet-thiollier6054]

Wore psychedelique yesterday. Exceptional! Does have a strong rum or wiskey aroma to it!

[@deankoenig6438]

Nice list! Patchouli Absolu is a must. 😎

[@justaddlight]

Ooooo a solid lineup. 😌 Bases covered I think. Patchouli Intense such a lovely daily wear fragrance. 💛

[@ahmedelgezla3113]

Psychedelic always your no.1

[@thebridewearsblack]

And the discontinued Angel Muse EDP ;( RIP. Coromandel is gorgeous, I also like Tonny Iomi and Tobacco Maniac

[@kensears5099]

Extremely intrigued by the Montale! Especially that curious combination of carrot with the rest. Yes indeed, very intrigued.

[@tee331]

It's very weak I'm afraid

[@geoffreyvaughn]

Thanks for this, patchouli is my jam. Would love a vid on incense or anise scents.

[@ZanaMahmod-g6k]

Amazing video …, my most wearing and favorite fragrances 🎉❤

[@MyFragranceWardrobe-jz4xc]

This is my favorite note, like you. I first enjoyed Nouveau Genre Yves Rocher and then it was down the rabbit hole. Unfortunately I can't find the Yves Rocher anymore but really love Tempo, Psychedelique, Coromandel, Patchouli Leaves and Profumum Roma Patchouly. Great video Sebastian.

[@chbreet]

Montale - Vetiver Patchouli is perfect

[@garydc1057]

So glad you included 'Remeniscence' Patchouli, even though it is very similar to Jovoy. I think it's super important, both from a historical perspective and from a price point perspective - it's such good value and will always be in my collection, and not only for igniting my love of Patchouli many, many moons ago.. Patchouli Antique by Les Nereides, also, is so worth checking out for anyone that hasn't already. Thanks for sharing a wonderful compilation of patchouli-centric perfumes.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

I just noticed that they have changed all their bottles. We’ll see if the fragrance has changed as well. 😀

[@garydc1057]

@@ThePerfumeGuy ; Remeniscence have changed their bottles? That's happened previously, and the ones I have presently - the original Patchouli and Patchouli Pour Homme - are both 'second generation' bottles that, I'm glad to say, both smell and perform as the originals. If the bottle design has changed again then, as you say, it'll be interesting to see whether formulations have also changed or continue to remain true to the original. In particular I'd be horrified if the original Patchouli has changed - that would be an absolute travesty! I'll be re-purchasing (the original) Patchouli within the next few months, ahead of the 2024 autumn/winter season, so I guess I'll find out soon enough..

[@garydc1057]

@@ThePerfumeGuy Hi Sebastion. I've seen the new 'third generation' bottles / packaging, and noticed that the name has seemingly changed from simply 'Patchouli' to 'Le Patchouli', although the note breakdown appears the very same - so I hope the formulation remains unchanged, also. For what it's worth, I've just purchased a new 100ml bottle and it was the same 'second generation' as before, so I can't testify to the formulation of the new 'Le Patchouli' incarnation. I should imagine stockists will still have (quite possibly) plenty of 'second generation' bottles still to move on, certainly if my new purchase is anything to go by. Stay healthy and best wishes.

[@saabreplay7553]

Great work my brother

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Appreciated

[@shahzadghaffar4373]

Hi Sebastian! Great list! Can you do a similar video on tobacco, leather & amber. I know you’ve done top 20 ones in the past. Thanks.

[@NewUkeNewYork]

My favorite perfume is Fiele Pogostemon, which is warm and peppery and intense, so I watched this to get some other patchouli ideas. Thanks!

[@marygracerodriguez2285]

Thanks Sebastian! I hope Vanilla is next!

[@Shadesof]

Yes yes yes 👍

[@user-dm3xm7jw9s]

Tom Ford Noir is a great patchouli fragrance. It got some nice dark gothic vibes.

[@djuracosic8788]

Tempo Diptyque.... Psychedelique Jovoy...Metaphore WJ Calaj(extra potetnt and strong)....Chevalier De La Nuit Parfums Ciro....Patchouli Lorenzo Villoresi...thats the list for now..my favorites...I like patchouli to be dominant in the perfume....Purely Orient Patchouli by Ajmal...Orient take on patchouli...

[@kensears5099]

Panouge Patchouli Figue is really nice, too. You reviewed it very positively years ago. I got a bottle for myself and also for friends.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

I almost featured that one just didn’t fit. I do enjoy quite a bit though. 😀

[@jesuslarakarrillo]

Where can I buy AL zajeera fragrance?

[@bjoern0975]

In addition to some of your favorites (such as Psychedelique) I would certainly mention Javanese Patchouli (EdT) by Zegna, Patchouli Absolu by Tom Ford, and - for another completely different take on the note - Mistral Patchouli by Atelier Cologne. I know, none of these are easy to find nowadays...

[@omerloay7918]

Sole patchouli by vertus & Patchouly by Profumum Roma are also great choices for patchouli lovers

[@brandisayre6371]

I have recently discovered that patchouli is one of my favorite notes. I enjoy most of the ones you mentioned and more. Bois 1920 Real Patchouli is probably my favorite patchouli dominant fragrance.

[@Windingspirals]

Thank you. Also one of my fav notes, if not the fav. Surprised Music for a While is not in here. Patchouli makes that frag incredible. So well balanced against the pineapple.

[@jarridsteel6229]

For me, La Closerie Des Parfums Zeste Patchouli Baie Rose, ByBozo's Brutal and Escentric Molecules Molecule 1 + Patchouli are very near top of my list but for sure, my favorite niche patchouli is Psychedelique from Jovoy and my favorite designer is 2023's Boss Bottled Elixir.

[@naninilsson8015]

Dyptique is my next plan to have itT.hank you Sebastian. 🙏

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

You're welcome.

[@jackiehill6357]

I love Coromandel. It is the best patchouli I've ever smelled.

[@TheEagleslover]

Patchouli stan for life! Great list as always.❤ Reminiscence will always be my favorite.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

So good!

[@cigdemfndklar2279]

Delicious list. I adooore patchouli and even wear its dark dark brown oil like in the 70s. Jovoy Psychedelic absolutely deserves number 1.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@RaySchutz]

Von Eusersdorf; classic or balmy??

[@raucusretread]

You know I love this topic!!!!! Can't wait to smell your custom scent!! For me right now I am really enjoying Krigler Lovely Patchouli 55! Incredible stuff. Then Psychadelic from Jovoy. Let's see your top ten. Thanks for the review! Cheers!🎉🎉🎉🎉😊

I enjoy it I just don’t own it. 😀

Profumum Roma Patchouly is my GOAT

[@FreshGrey-pm4vw]

cant survive without having Coromandel - its a masterpiece to me.

[@maatkheru1042]

As always great video. And I greatly respect your opinions when it comes to fragrances,But Armani Prive Indigo Tanzanite kills AT LEAST half of the fragrances on this list in my opinion

[@lovli31]

Great video!❤

Thank you! :)

[@joshel6059]

I ordered a 9 ml of Psychedelique in order to figure out once and for all if I share Seb's fondness for Patch! (fingers crossed)

Patchouli intense is one of my if not my most beast mode fragrances on my skin whe' I wear it even the next day after shower I still smell it😮

[@Sixx28]

Hey Seb, thought of you the other day. Have you seen the article saying they identified one of the fragrance materials in an ancient Roman perfume vial as being patchouli?

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Oh wow. Didn’t hear this. That’s awesome. Where’s the article?

[@Sixx28]

@@ThePerfumeGuy Turns out it’s all over the web but the Smithsonian has an article on it!

[@usefulknowledge6074]

I have psychedelique. I love how it smells. However, why it lasts very long, it has very poor silage. I need to bring my hand close to my nose before I can smell it. What's your experience regarding its silage?

[@speakrawtruth]

I like Monsuier by Fredric Malle And Patchouli of the Underworld by Electimuss

[@TheBex113]

The only one of these that I have is Ursa and tbh I found it a bit challenging. I don't think I would have considered it as close to Straight to Heaven but it could have been my skin chemistry. I'm excited to revisit it now.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

I can see people are challenged with Ursa. I have heard from many which is a bummer. Because once you get past that challenging leather it's so good! :)

Hello Looking for a Patchouli Perfume for Women’s. If i go to Macy’s can i try them? Ty I’m in USA!

[@lisatrecartin4148]

Electimus Persephone's Patchouli. Have just ordered a sample of Jovoy's. Can you recommend a smooth, clean, ethereal patchouli for summer? Also, are the patchoulis on your list unisex?

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

All the patchoulis here should be unisex. And do you mean light airy when you refer to ethereal patchouli? I would go with Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 + Patchouli. For an airy lighter patchouli. Or even Cannabis Santal perhaps hoping the cannabis doesn't bother you.

[@karolinak566]

I have Guerlain's Patchouli Ardent on my list 🥰

Ive been tryna get a patchouli fragrance like the one Zum Soap Products they carry Patchouli

I just placed an order for the laundry detergent and hand soap!

[@anjakummer218]

I do really like patchouli magnatik, but I do have love and hate relationship with it. Sometimes i don’t like the smell but I like to sniff it from time to time. It has something a little off remind me of mothball but I do like that creamy chocolate patchouli. I haven’t tried other things from your list, could you recommend me perfume that is similar to patchouli magnatik (patchouli chocolate smell with creaminess or powdery without being completely gourmand) ??

[@jameslongmore3830]

Thank you Sebastian great ten there which i allso have some in my collection ❤

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Thank you for stopping by! :)

[@cherylhirasa3216]

I’m not familiar with the chocolate cakey effect, but I love patchouli. My absolute favorite was Tom Ford’s Patchouli Absolu. Would this be chocolate cakey? Or something else? And can you recommend a perfume that’s similar to Patchouli Absolu?

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

You can try this video for Chocolate Cake patchouli: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHWbe6mIbLqfZ5I Sadly the TF didn't give me that chocolate cake effect. It didn't have the amber and vanilla strong in the base to give that. Also you should try my patchouli collaboration fragrance with Jusbox called Fifty Four that is a chocolate milk or milk chocolate effect. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXmnlmqFiMdgrNk it's really super delicious.

[@cherylhirasa3216]

@ thanks! Do you have any recs on perfumes that are close to Tom Ford’s Patchouli Absolu?

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

I don't have it to compare it to anything sadly. It's discontinued. I recall it more earthy wood take on patchouli without the amber effect.

[@cherylhirasa3216]

@ ok, thanks. It was my absolute favorite. Perhaps I’ll try one in your recs.

[@АлексаТодић]

Monsieur Frederic Malle 👌

[@misterjib]

only have one patchouli - yuzu rose patchouli by chatillon lux. good value and smells amazing, to me at least

[@armineasatryan4068]

[@cko7785]

From this list I only own Real Patchouli from Bois 1920 and Patchouli intense from Parfums da nicolai

[@Eirini80]

When i was new to the perfume game i smelled psychedelic and i was scared. Now i love it😂

[@Hrudaya_CK]

I am surprised Tom Ford White Patchouli is not on here. Not even mentioned

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Tom Ford White Patchouli is a fragrance I wore in 2010-2012. I loved it. But honestly it's no longer in regular rotation. It's also on it's way out/discontinued so I don't currently own a full bottle anymore sadly! Although I smelled something recently that reminded me of it. Now I can't remember what it was!! :)

[@mehdishekarforoush2209]

Reminiscence Patchouli is a reference patchouli in perfume history. There is a NEZ magazine edition all about patchouli, that interviewed with several perfumers. They are all mentioned the remincense as the iconic patcholi. But it's from 1970, not very modern that people usually like these days.

[@archeionx]

I need to try these

[@sstar2516]

Ojar Infusion Velours is gorgeous to my nos3 😍 ...please review ❤

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

I don't remember this one for patchouli. I'll have to try it again.

[@lorenlal]

Where have you been all my life?????? Patchouli is my life, If I could eat it I would. I'm in my late 60's and still look for that 70's fragrance that has more of that dirt undertone..lololo I still have my Civet oil from Houbigant from the 1970's I have not had the pleasure of smelling any of the Tom Ford fragrances other than Black Orchid, Not what I'm looking for

[@StelmaDesigns]

I have to admit, other than in base notes, a strong patchouli is not my favorite note. That said, I was given a decant of Electimuss Persephone's Patchouli, and I had to buy a full bottle. I have read that it's a beginners patchouli, so perhaps it wouldn't make a true patch lovers list :o)
