Darwin Classic v. (Le Père Lucien)
citrus, lemongrass, ginger, patchouli
I smell lemon and patchouli with just a bare whiff of ginger. It’s a lovely mild scent, one you could use for days on end without growing weary of it. The patchouli is not dirty in the least. A shame. I remedied that by administering a few liberal doses of Santa Maria Novella’s Patchouli edt. A dry, camphoric interpretation of patchouli, it offers robust notes of smoke and soil and acts like a wormhole back to the 70s.
