If there were a dimmer switch on a perfume's notes, allowing you to turn the lights down and saturate its colors, perfumer Cécile Zaroakian has used it with Private Label. Connoisseurs of leather scents will want to flock to this brooding yet seductive perfume.
A vetiver leather dosed with patchouli and papyrus sedge, followed by a creamy, woodsy base, Private Label is bone dry and only lightly sweetened yet soft and seductive. Papyrus sedge adds a kind of vegetal bitterness to the already challenging and austere vetiver/leather combination. This formidable accord is balanced by the rich, buttery base of sandalwood and vanillic labdanum (cistus).
Described by Jovoy François Hénin as his ideal Oriental scent, he continues that it is “the archetypal parfum de sillage: it leaves a distinct trail while remaining consistent over time.” Earthy, elegant, and stunning, Private Label is sure to appeal to vetiver and leather lovers, as well as any perfumista who wants to walk on the dark side.

Opens a little harsh...settles into a smooth smoky scent.
Piercing and altogether unpleasant. I am a fan of old school scents, but this one is a definite pass. Shame, as it is very potent with eternal longevity. If you want a classy, quality patchouli fragrance go with vintage Givenchy Gentleman - and it won't break the bank.
