Best men’s patchouli fragrance

Patchouli is one of the best surprises in the fragrance industry. While we’ve long associated the scent with drug rugs and drum circles, patchouli oil is in fact one of the most dynamic and versatile ingredients used in modern perfumery. The oil is extracted from the leaves of the patchouli plant, an herbaceous bush related to mint, and it gives the best patchouli colognes an earthy, sweet profile, one that is alluring for its muskiness and admired for its strength.

A patchouli-tilted cologne is best worn between fall and spring. Though it’s suitable in summer, it’s these shoulder-and-colder seasons that complement the warming notes and full-bodied scents.

There’s a chance you already have or love a patchouli-heavy cologne, given its growing prominence in fragrances; perhaps it isn’t the primary note, but patchouli rarely sits quietly in the background.

Here are eight of the best patchouli colognes and unisex fragrances, each of which wears well year round and will have anyone who gets close to you asking, “What smells so good?”

It’s patchouli, man.

• 
• 1/8Byredo Velvet HazeVelvet Haze is a blend of sweet and earthy: Patchouli and musk do the heavy lifting, while cocoa and coconut steer the recipe towards sunny skies. While many from this list sell on seductiveness, Velvet Haze’s strength is more “cool, calm, and collected.”$265 at Nordstrom
• 
• 2/8Diptyque TempoThe trio of sage, herbal maté, and pink pepper give Tempo its pulse, while patchouli handles the lead vocals in one of Diptyque’s finest fragrances. Tempo is flirtatious, akin to the free-love era it recalls.$180 at Nordstrom
• 
• 3/8Arquiste MisfitA frontrunner for your new “signature scent”, Misfit was one of the best colognes launched last year. Though its notes are a roster of heavy hitters—like amber, tonka, and balsam—Misfit is lighter in gravity than the rest on this list (in that it wears well year round, not just in colder months). Lavender gives it that lift, though the head-turning patchouli stands out strongest of all.$195 at Arquiste

• 
• 4/8Henry Rose Dark is NightThe pairing of patchouli and vanilla is timeless, and in Henry Rose’s Dark is Night, the tandem is at its best. To me, it feels like a night on the town—one of revelry and vices, but innocent in intent.$120 at Goop
• 
• 5/8D.S & Durga Amber KisoIn Amber Kiso, patchouli is a backup singer—notes of incense, moss, cypress, and leather have just as much weight. But that lineup casts the same spell as the other scents on this list. Proceed with caution: D.S. & Durga’s recipe casts perhaps the largest scent radius from this list.$260 at D.S. & Durga
• 
• 6/8Christian Dior Patchouli ImpérialAnchored by patchouli, with smoke, amber, cinnamon, cedar, coriander, these notes give Patchouli Impérial a dark, apothecary energy. It bears a medium strength—ideal to most, as it’s not alarming in its cast—but it endures the entire day, or the entire night.$220 at Dior

• 
• 7/8Givenchy Patchouli de MinuitIn Patchouli de Minuit, notes of saffron, lavender, and tonka beans pitch in for a spicy, woody scent that recalls sweltering summer nights any time of year.$235 at Saks Fifth Avenue
• 
• 8/8Tom Ford Patchouli AbsoluTom Ford wanted a hypnotic patchouli potion, and he made it here. This is a magnetic combination that includes leather, rosemary, and moss, and it lasts hours and hours.

Best patchouli fragrances for men

Patchouli is a species of herb from the mint family known scientifically as Pogostemon cablin, a native of tropical Asia. The name derives from two old Tamil words, “patchai”, which means green, and “ellai”, which means leaf.

It grows to a height of two to three feet with leaves that grow upward and produce a strong fragrance that is more woody than herbal.

The oil produced from the leaves is unusual as it actually gets better with age – freshly distilled oil is greener and sharper than an aged oil, which will develop to smell richer and deeper.

The Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun was buried with 40 litres of patchouli oil in around 1323BC, while early European traders valued it as highly as gold. For a number of people,

however, it will always be associated with the hippy movement of the 1960s – and not necessarily in a good way (it has been described as smelling like a Grateful Dead concert).

Fortunately, over time, patchouli aftershaves have shaken off this image and are today at the heart of the “chypre” family of fragrances, most often described as warm and mossy-woody.

So, if you’re looking to add a patchouli fragrance to your bathroom cabinet, here we’ve highlighted a selection of the very best available for men right now.

And if you want our pick of the new fragrances worth a spritz, be sure to check out GQ‘s guide to the best men’s aftershaves and scents.

• 
• 1/19CHANEL LES EXCLUSIFS DE CHANEL LE LION EAU DE PARFUM Chanel’s biographical inspired Les Exclusifs offer a a glimpse into what made Coco tick and are seen as the ultimate sensory expression from this hallowed fashion house.
• Each eau de parfum pays tribute to a facet of the designer’s great legacy, with its latest addition, Le Lion, paying tribute to her zodiac sign; she was a Leo, born on 19 August 1883.
• The lion went on to symbolise strength and resolve to Chanel and was a reoccurring icon in both the jewellery she made and within the interiors of her apartment at 31 Rue Cambon. Inspired by this empowering concept of what a lion stands for, rather than the getting too caught up in the traits of the animal itself,
• Olivier Polge, perfumer-creator for the house of Chanel, has come up with a deep and opulent oriental with bite, but which is tamed with a softer side of warm, golden, comforting and amber-like notes.
• Both majestic and radiant, it starts its journey with the sparkling citrus notes of lemon and bergamot, immediately followed with resinous cistus labdanum and Madagascan vanilla, which has a balmy, velvety and leather-like warmth.
• The lingering base, from which the scent really sings, pairs musky patchouli with sensual and creamy sandalwood. 
• 
• 2/19BON PARFUMEUR 602 PEPPER, CEDAR, PATCHOULI EAU DE PARFUM
• Ludovic Bonneton’s niche fragrance house, Bon Parfumeur, marries the old-school traditions of fine perfumery with a modern-day perspective; a community that offers talented young perfumers the opportunity to exert creative freedom and use exceptional ingredients, without compromise.
• While all of its fragrances are non-gender-specific, 602 is a very masculine composition: a woody scent peppered with the biting spices of the South Seas.
• Bordering on a fern-like fougère formula, it opens on sunny notes of neroli as they meet the spicy freshness, achieved by pairing St Thomas berries with incense, of West Indian bay.
• The heart reveals a colder, spicy character, with Madagascan black pepper, chilli pepper, Somalian frankincense and cedar, which gives it depth and sets a more exotic tone.
• Woody essences of patchouli, vetiver and benzoin resin add smoky hints in its long and lingering base.
• Proving uniquely comforting it will appeal to both fragrance connoisseurs and those less experienced who are simply looking for a heart-warming winter scent.
• 
  • 3/19ESCENTRIC MOLECULES MOLECULE 01 + PATCHOULI EAU DE TOILETTE
  • One of the great things about the Escentric Molecules team is that they don’t pump fragrances out or stick to a marketing-led business plan; they only launch something new when they have something new to say, which has been the brand’s philosophy, having created only five duo-scents (which they call binary pairs, since launch in 2006).
  • Escentric Molecules’ Molecule 01 scent rewrote the perfumery rule books by being composed of a single aroma molecule in a bottle called Iso E Super, an abstract synthetic that was actually created in a lab. To celebrate the aroma molecule’s influence on the modern fragrance landscape,
  • Molecule 01 gets a plus-one in three different iterations, each paired with a single complementary natural scent ingredient, collectively known as Molecule +. Perfumer Geza Schoen explains,
  • “Molecule 01 is an exceptional molecule: radiant, velvety, cocooning. There’s nothing else like it, people find it irresistible.
  • It’s mysteriously and effective on its own as Molecule 01, but it’s also great in a fragrance, as with Escentric 01. I started to wonder if there might be another way to play with it. 
  • What if I could take the molecule and add just one other beautiful ingredient and see how they danced together in the bottle?”
  • The pairings include mandarin (citrus fresh), iris and, our personal favourite, patchouli, with a bewitching moodiness about it.
  • Unlike most perfume ingredients, patchouli is unique in that we associate it with a particular period (the 1960s, 1970s bohemian spirit); it has a cool, aloof woodiness to it.
  • Two different qualities of patchouli have been used, the biggest chunk of which is patchouli coeur, a very clean, soft patchouli oil combined with the more camphor-like notes of patchouli oil from Indonesia. £95 for 100ml. At Selfridges. selfridges.com

• 4/19JO LOVES COBALT PATCHOULI & CEDAR FRAGRANCE PARFUM described as an English scent maverick, Jo Malone CBE takes a minimalistic approach to fragrance creation by showcasing hero ingredients and paring them with unlikely, but always complementary, olfactory bedfellows.
• The original founder of Jo Malone London and now the captain at the helm of Jo Loves, her latest fragrance, Cobalt Patchouli & Cedar, inspired by blue-sky thinking, is both eclectic and vibrant.
• The inspiration behind this woody/aromatic genderless scent with an innate joie de vivre? Jo wanted to create a post-pandemic fragrance which represented our innate resilience, strength of character and ability to not only overcome obstacles but to use them as a springboard to a better life.
• Adopting Malone’s signature style – fresh and uplifting with a clean, crisp air – it exudes celebration, enthusiasm and a new-found intensity to imagine, inspire and be inspired.
• Classic masculine notes of patchouli and cedarwood take on an eclectic twist in the base, combined with an energetic burst of blue grapefruit up top and vetiver and geranium in its heart.
• A truly captivating aroma, it also radiates a powerful sense of calm. £75 for 100ml. At cultbeauty.co.uk
