Normally the word "patchouli" conjures up images of long-skirted hippie women who don't shave their armpits (or bathe).
However, for many years I wore Caswell-Massey's patchouli cologne. It was an extremely dry, herbal scent unlike the cloyingly overbearing concoctions associated with 22 year old Trustafarians.
Somewhere in the late 80's, I think, Caswell-Massey reformulated this cologne and made it sweeter and definitely different (inferior) to the original. Their fulfillment department did a special order for me and their chemist mixed me up a BIG ol' bottle of it which I used happily for years.
I don't think they offer patchouli cologne in any sort of formulation anymore much less the original formulation.
