There are several reasons to love Patch NYC's solid perfumes. First of all: The duo crafts each fragrance with New York-based Soap and Paper Factory using all natural, chemical- and cruelty-free ingredients. Second: The intricate packaging illustrations come from half of the Patch NYC pair, Don Carney. Third: A jojoba and beeswax base blends petit grain, hay absolute and geranium for "a scent as vivid and crisp as a lush garden." Finally, the TSA-friendly size and formula make it an excellent weekend companion for smelling great. At just $22, it can even make for a nice hostess gift or party favor.
