Patchouli

Product Description:

Patchouli essential oil is often considered an intoxicating aroma, making it a popular choice for meditation and spiritual practices. It is an aromatic herb native to Indonesia and Malaysia. Diffusing Patchouli at home and elsewhere may provide many benefits.

Patchouli is a distinctly recognizable scent. It is very earthy and slightly musky with slightly sweet and woodsy undertones. Many find the earthiness of Patchouli to be somewhat heady and reminiscent of the aroma of wet soil. With its more heavy scent, Patchouli is often thought of as intoxicating and highly aromatic.

Patchouli oil reminds me of Seattle. If you have ever spent much time in this part of the country, you have probably run into your share of this aroma. Seattles Bumbershoot festival is on my list of memorable experiences. You cannot attend this festival with out also experiencing the smell of Patchouli.
