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.

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.

Patchouli concentrate. The smell is just awful, so old-fashioned. True patchouli lovers can probably appreciate it, but I wouldn't dare to wear it. Maybe if you mix it with something, but better yet, with several fragrances to somehow save the situation

This fragrance is just awful. The feeling of its strangeness doesn't leave me, and not in a good way. Patchouli, of course, many people like, but here it's just overpowering, causing discomfort. The dryness and tartness create an oppressive atmosphere. I don't understand how anyone could like this 😒

I love patchouli, of course, but in this fragrance, it's somehow too much. There's a real sharpness, as if the forest and earth have merged into one. It lasts a very long time, by the way, which is surprising. I only got to the base after 6-7 hours. Yes, there's tenderness and beauty in it, but to feel that, you have to be patient 🤔
4/5

The perfume is indeed very rich and vibrant, but for me, it turned out to be a bit heavy for everyday wear, not just for testing. I decided to change it a bit by adding my favorite floral fragrance to it, then mixed in another one I also like, and finally added patchouli. After the mixture settled a bit, it revealed an absolutely stunning note of rose and patchouli. The longevity also pleased me - even after a day, I can still feel these patchouli notes, in a lighter version
4/5

The fragrance has calm patchouli notes that won't be too intrusive for the wearer or those around them. The medicinal hint of patchouli harmonizes with wax, so sometimes it's hard to tell where one ends and the other begins. In the finale, a sweetish fruity accent appears, reminiscent of chocolate
