Patchouli EMPIRE takes us back to a time when countries were empires and the East was still relatively unknown in Europe. Ships sailing from Colonial India to Europe would have cashmere shawls rolled in patchouli leaves to protect them from being devoured by moths. The scent of the leaves was so lasting that in Europe, the popular shawls become synonymous with the exotic tease of this perfume from a far-off land. Depending upon its age, variety and origin, patchouli can run the gamut of strengths and intensities, and the finest is subtle, rich and warm but always subtle and ever-changing. Christopher has blended five different patchoulis, both sweet and dark, with vibrant and rich woods and a twist of Indian black pepper to create a drop-dead gorgeous patchouli scent worthy of building an empire around.
