Patchouli & Litsea Combo???

[AAShillito]

Good, bad, awful, anyone? Considering 65% Patch/35%Litsea.
Thanks!!!

You can dip a couple of cotton swabs in the patchouli, and one in the litsea, then put all three in a ziplock bag and close it. After an hour open the bag and smell it, and see if you like it. And tell us! It sounds interesting but I would add something like benzoin to the mix.

I love patchouli-lime; other citrusy smells like litsea should work, too.

But I recommend 80% litsea and 20% patchouli, or all you will smell is the patch-- especially after it cures for awhile, and the citrus starts to fade. Ask me how I know.

Patchouli and lavender make a nice combo.

I've used patch litsea and lavadin together and I really like it. It's a citrus so it goes well with patch.

Thanks! I ordered patchouli from Fragrance Buddy last night

Anything with patchouli is good!

I love patchouli, but these two girls at work wear patch all the time...it's starting to get on my nerves, like I think they dowse themselves in eo.

They come to my department, then the mouse smells, the chair smells, the bathroom smells. OMG too much patchouli!! One of them asked to borrow my sweatshirt one day, which of course I let her, but egads!!

I think people who wear it all the time get nose-blind to it after awhile. Hopefully you will, too, @Catscankim

Like my grandmother with her Este Lauder LOL. She was always like "Really? I can't smell it!". Yet we all bought it for her for xmas every year cause that's all she wanted. The body splash, the powder, the perfume. She layered on her signature scent....omg I can smell it just typing it LOL

And also my mom with her Jean Nate

Jean Nate! Ok, now I’m 16 years old and dating my first boyfriend. What a blast from the past!

Don't forget Love's Baby Soft LOL

Or Coty Wild Musk. We won't get started on men's fragrances...ok, we will Drakkar Noir. I think that is permanently stuck in my nose.
