A change of hands to a skilled family of perfumers with over 100 years of expertise marks a new chapter in the history of L'Artisan Parfumeur. With this new beginning comes a fresh perspective; a return to the brand's roots fueled by the desire to allow its iconic heritage to flourish, and to reveal its love of nature and the new, as well as Jean Laporte's original passion for perfume. A pioneering spirit with a contemporary vision that has endured for 40 years, L'Artisan Parfumeur is a contrasting celebration of both the classic and the modern.
Patchouli Patch is an Haute Bohemian interpretation of one of L'Artisan Parfumeur's original fragrances from 1978. During the 18th and 19th century, silk traders from China packed their silk cloth with dried patchouli leaves to protect them. An exceptional quality of patchouli essential oil is used in this perfume. The floral earthiness of patchouli is enhanced by vetiver, cedar and sandalwood: the dry down is a reminder of patchouli's long and smoky past.
