Patchouli Essential Oil (Pogostemon cablin) is a timeless classic. It's technically a resin making this a base note in essential oils and has a very long shelf life.
The aroma is rich, deep and warm. Of course Patchouli is known for its LOVE IT or HATE IT aroma. There is usually no 'grey area' in peoples feelings for this oil. If you're here reading this on Patchouli, you're probably in the 'I LOVE IT' camp!
Some people wear a drop of Patchouli as a perfume (always test for skin sensitivity before applying directly on the skin).
Used therapeutically Patchouli Essential Oil is powerfully grounding and deeply relaxing. A wonderful addition to any blend meant to alleviate stress and tension.
Use Patchouli for skin problems like Acne, Athletes Foot, Cracked skin, Fungal Infections and Insect Bites.
Patchouli has strong anti inflammatory properties, so this would be a great addition to a pain relieving oil or salve.
