Patchouli oil Reserve Select, (Dark, Iron Distilled), India. This is the most aromatic Patchouli that we carry. It has a better scent than the typical Indonesian or Chinese material as well as higher patchouli alcohol (the sesquiterpene alcohol that is the main component in patchouli oil).

A perennial favorite, Patchouli is a classic fragrance. It is musky, rich, and deep, and it has numerous therapeutic properties beyond it's usual use as a natural perfume and deodorant.

Patchouli is grounding and centering and for this reason it is often used to enhance meditation. Many essential oils are excellent for stress relief and Patchouli is also one of these.

It can release over anxious thoughts, balance mood swings, help with poor concentration, and even reduce challenging behavior when used in a diffuser. Spiritually Patchouli is believed to help heighten awareness and keep an individual in touch with their physical body.

Of course it also supports the immune system and is a general tonic for the body.

Patchouli works wonderfully in the carrier oil of your choice for massage. It is a very rich, penetrating oil so the odor will stay with you for a while. To enjoy the therapeutic benefits you can also sprinkle it on a tissue for inhalation.

Like all essential oils Patchouli should not be applied directly to the skin and you should not use essential oils if you are pregnant. Please consult your physician prior to using essential oils, as the information on this site is not intended to be a replacement for medical advice.
