BPAL sniffing notes 35 - Depraved

Depraved - A salacious, lecherous, leering scent — dirty and dark, slapped with a wet sweetness. Earthy black patchouli swelling with apricot.

In the vial, it's nothing but patchouli. Gritty, dirty patchouli. Colorwise, it is straight dirt brown.

Wet on my skin, *there* is the apricot. I could get to like this one...

10-15 minute drydown - My body *seemed* to eat the apricot, so all I get is patchouli, but every once in a while I'll get a whiff of that sweetness.

1 hour drydown - Not so strong now... It reminds me of the smell that your summer garb gets when you pack it away. It's the smell of the leather from the belts and pouches and the sandalwood fans and the dust from Pennsic. I might just have to order an actual bottle of this.
