Fragrance information:

Esteban launched Patchouli in 2008 — and it was a brilliant move. A unisex fragrance belonging to the wood and musk families. Perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin is the author behind this composition. An eau de toilette — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.

Expect a noticeable sillage — enough to be remembered, not enough to overwhelm. A couple of sprays will carry you through the whole day — longevity is firmly high. Country of origin — France: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The olfactory structure of Patchouli unfolds as a cohesive olfactory arc, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Esteban is clear from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Balsamic, Floral, Wood and Powdery forming a compact and readable structure. Secondary accord layers such as Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read. For persistence High points to a sustained drydown presence. In diffusion Noticeable describes the way the scent radiates.

Right at the start you catch spicy sparkling opening notes: Black Pepper and Pink pepper.

In the middle phase you meet Iris, Rose and Violet leaf keeping a velvety rose-iris direction.

At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Spicy, Floral, Green and Balsamic. It also reaches into Wood and Musk.

Taken together Patchouli sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood on skin.

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
High (5 to 12 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.
