Patchouly Rimmel, introduced to the world in 1855, is marketed as a feminine fragrance, drawing from the green family. An eau de cologne — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Brand country — the United Kingdom, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. Patchouly Rimmel unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
A great perfume doesn't need lengthy explanations — it speaks for itself. The official website of Rimmel — http://www.oudelite.com.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A fresh and light fragrance with a concentration of fragrant substances up to 5% according to French standards, giving a feeling of purity and coolness
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The olfactory structure of Patchouly unfolds as a continuous scent journey, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The signature of Rimmel is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de Cologne keeps the right density and pace of development.
The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Wood with each one in a clear role. The gender direction is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
When the structure is mixed the fragrance opens as a single chord with a architectural woody mood: Patchouli. In this case 1 note acts as one voice, building clear woody framework that keeps the opening compact and balanced.
The middle and base stages are read as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Wood, Earthy / Mossy and Green. From a family perspective the fragrance belongs to Green.
Overall Patchouly reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood in wear.
