Entirely possible as that's what I found when looking it up too. ;-)

At $95 per 50ml grenade-shaped bottle, ya wonder.

The description of the scent mentions a strong odor of 'patchouli' (which makes me gag, btw)

Patchouli:

Patchouli (also patchouly or pachouli) is both a plant and an essential oil (patchouli oil) obtained from the leaves of a plant of the same name. The scent of patchouli is heavy and strong, and many people find it offensive. It has been used for centuries in perfumes, and is grown in the East and West Indies. The word derives from the Tamil patchai பச்சை (green), ellai இலை (leaf).(snip)

During the 18th and 19th century silk traders from China travelling to the Middle East packed their silk cloth with dried patchouli leaves to prevent moths from laying their eggs on the cloth.(snip) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patchouli
