Histoires de parfums - Noir Patchouli

Noir Patchouli has notes of patchouli, coriander, cardamom, floral bouquet, juniper berry, black pepper, musk, vetiver, moss, leather and vanilla.

There is something terribly wrong with some of HDP perfumes. My nose detects in this one a very sharp astringent note. It's more like a sensation than a scent and it totally ruins this otherwise splendid perfume. The awful note seems to start fading in the drydown but not entirely so. It's a beautiful leather but what a shame about that bloody note or whatever it is! 5/10
