Think patchouli oil and, chances are, (if you’re old enough) you’ll be transported to prog rock concerts, bikers’ pubs or hippy shops selling joss sticks and questionable smoking paraphernalia.
Hard that it maybe, you’ve got to erase those memories. What we’ve done with patchouli is a million Harley ridden or sandal-shod shuffled miles away from leather jackets and Afghan coats.
We combine our hand-sourced Sumatran Dark Patchouli with magical Oudh to create a heady and spellbinding uplifting fragrance that captures the essence of the forest suffused with a contemporary earthy and sultry sass. Man.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Påtch suits a slow, close conversation after the bustle has subsided. Its dark woods and earthy patchouli suggest forest ground carried indoors: a substantial presence that feels tactile and grounded rather than polished or formally dressed.
How to wear
Cool autumn weather is a natural setting for this dense patchouli-and-oud profile. Start with one spray on the torso and assess before adding more; its forceful character calls for restraint in shared spaces. In warmer weather, keep application light to avoid making the earthy, leathery weight feel overwhelming.
Who it’s for
For lovers of assertive patchouli, oud and earthy woods who prefer depth and texture to sweetness or sparkling freshness. Its leathery character will appeal to those seeking a substantial forest-inspired scent without a nostalgic incense-shop treatment.
Release year
2021 (or 2022)
The nose
Simon Constantine is the founder and perfumer of ånd fragrance, formerly a head buyer and perfumer at Lush, where he helped develop Gorilla Perfumes. His work connects expressive fragrance-making with a close interest in raw materials and the communities that grow them. Påtch reflects that approach, placing sourced Sumatran patchouli at the centre of a bold woodland composition.
And Fragrance’s story
ånd connects handmade perfumery with social justice and ecosystem protection. Its philosophy treats ingredient-growing communities as partners, with regenerative sourcing intended to return value to those who maintain living landscapes. The house describes its fragrances as vegan and cruelty-free, pairing outspoken environmental values with equally expressive scents.
Patch’s concept
Påtch was conceived to move patchouli beyond its familiar associations with hippie shops, biker pubs and incense. Dark patchouli from Aceh, Sumatra, is combined with oud and osmanthus to suggest a contemporary, earthy forest fragrance. The sourcing story forms part of the concept: ånd links the material to farming practices intended to support livelihoods and soil health without further forest clearance.
Extra info
The official name is spelled Påtch. Beyond the liquid fragrance, it is offered as a Tåg solid perfume made with Amazonian butters inside a hollowed tagua nut, with a recycled-aluminium applicator.
