Fragrance information:

The world first encountered Patchouli Impérial by Dior in 2011. By character, a masculine fragrance drawing from the east and wood families. Perfumer François Demachy left a distinct mark on this composition. Patchouli Impérial is part of the Collection Privee collection. In eau de parfum — and that's all it takes to fall in love.

The longevity of this fragrance is moderate — exactly what most occasions call for. Country of origin — France. Patchouli Impérial Dior unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The scent of Patchouli Impérial evolves as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Dior comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum sets the depth and body this composition needs.

When the pyramid is blended into one block the notes arrive together with a architectural woody mood: Bergamot, Cedar, Coriander, Mandarin, Patchouli and Sandalwood. Here 6 notes act as one coherent layer, creating clear woody framework that feels seamless.

The middle and base stages are felt as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which gives the structure continuity.

The accord profile is driven by these accords: Citrus, Wood and Spicy with each one in a clear role. The gender direction is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.

At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Wood, Spicy and Gourmet.

In summary Patchouli Impérial sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best experienced in wear.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Medium (2 to 5 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
