Thundra by Profumum

When I walked into the kitchen after showering this morning, the BF remarked: "Are you wearing some musky thing? It's kind of strong."

Not really the thumbs-up a fragrance in test-drive mode craves. Oh well, it saves me from shelling out the cash for a full bottle.

There's a nice, warm earthiness to Thundra, plus a tang of cool mint, but overall, it's just not that unique or inspiring. If you're looking to drop some bucks on a striking patchouli that'll win friends and influence people, there are any number of better patch-fragrances to choose from: Le Labo Patchouli 24, CdG Luxe Patchouli, Serge Lutens Borneo 1834, Bond No. 9 Andy Warhol Silver Factory . . . and that's just a start.

You can order Profumum Thundra from Lucky Scent.
