Patchouli Dust – Extrait de Parfum

Pana Dora Sweden - PATCHOULI DUST - Extrait de Parfum

In the serene landscapes of the cold Swedish countryside, the allure of pheromones enchanted perfumer Ibrahim Al Zouabi of Pana Dora. As raindrops gracefully danced upon the arid ground, their magic intertwined with the notes of smoked wood emanating from an aged country house. Patchouli, at the heart of the fragrance PATCHOULI DUST by Pana Dora, imparts an unmistakable character – simultaneously smoky and earthy. Patchouli, scientifically known as Pogostemon cablin, is an aromatic plant belonging to the mint family (Lamiaceae). Indigenous to the tropical regions of South and Southeast Asia, including India, Indonesia, China and the Philippines, patchouli has been cherished for centuries for its unique scent, finding its place in perfumes and various scented products. 

The fragrance notes of patchouli are intricate and opulent, characterized as earthy, woody, sweet, balsamic and slightly spicy. Its deep and enduring quality makes it a favored fixative in perfumery, enhancing and stabilizing other scent notes. Recognized for its capacity to create a warm, sensual and exotic ambiance, the scent of patchouli can vary based on its origin, harvest time, and processing methods, resulting in nuanced aromatic profiles.

In the hands of Ibrahim Al-Zouabi, the creator of Pana Dora fragrances, patchouli becomes a versatile and evocative element, contributing to the rich tapestry of scents that resurrect Sweden's diverse fragrance spectrums in the Pana Dora collection. Over 30 years, Ibrahim Al-Zouabi honed his craft as a perfumer for major international companies before establishing Pana Dora in the Swedish town of Emmaboda. His unique ability to uncover the finest details and infuse them with life brings forth perfumes that encapsulate every aspect of Swedish life – from fragrant trees, water, markets, restaurants, streets to forests, all elegantly bottled with a magnificent deer head, symbolizing the impressive and natural wildlife of Sweden.
