Moreover, since 1976, the house has also been creating perfumes. These are crafted with the same precision as the brand's jewelry. They are a symbol of absolute elegance! In 2022, the Collection Extraordinaire by Van Cleef & Arpels welcomes a new addition: the unisex fragrance Patchouli Blanc.

Patchouli Blanc, a fragrance from the Collection Extraordinaire by Van Cleef & Arpels

Patchouli Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels is a creation that joins the Collection Extraordinaire. But what exactly does this mean? The Collection Extraordinaire by Van Cleef & Arpels is a series of several fragrances showcasing raw materials emblematic of perfumery. Each of these compositions works with a particular ingredient and delivers it in its most accomplished and prestigious form. The fragrances of the Collection Extraordinaire by Van Cleef & Arpels are imagined with the same perfection as high jewelry pieces. Patchouli Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels follows exactly the same lineage. A symbol of purity and softness, it works with patchouli by pairing it with the theme of white, a mark of purity and sobriety.

The floral, woody and musky inspiration of Patchouli Blanc

Patchouli Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels is a fragrance created by perfumer Jérôme Epinette. Here, he makes patchouli his main source of inspiration. However, he imagines it as silkier, woodier and infinitely enveloping. Patchouli Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels leaves behind a clean sensation. It is an airier version of patchouli. At first, Patchouli Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels pairs the freshness of aldehydes with the spicier breath of pink pepper. The patchouli essence, meanwhile, appears at its heart, accompanied by one of the most emblematic floral raw materials in the perfumer's entire palette: rose. The whole finally concludes with a creamier, more comforting scent of cashmere wood and white musk.

Like all the fragrances of the Collection Extraordinaire by Van Cleef & Arpels, Patchouli Blanc comes in a rectangular, vertical bottle, surprising for the heavy weight of its glass. It proves as luxurious as it is refined. Decorated with an embossed label, it is also engraved with a multitude of flowers. Undeniably, Patchouli Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels immerses one in a natural and highly poetic register. As for size, it is only available in one format, a 75 ml spray bottle.

Olfastory’s review

The Van Cleef & Arpels house was born from a fabulous love story. Carried by this intense emotion, it immediately established itself as one of the finest symbols of French jewelry and luxury. Established since 1906 on the Place Vendôme, Van Cleef & Arpels creates both jewelry and perfumes. Within this great Parisian house, the fragrances are displayed like diamonds, on the inside of the wrist, near the earlobe or around the neck, like true olfactory jewels. In 2022, the Van Cleef & Arpels catalog was enriched with a new composition: Patchouli Blanc. Here is our review.
