Patchouli Pure Essential Oil 10 ml — Steam-Distilled, Musky-Green Balance

Earthy, musky, and timeless—green leaf magic, aged into depth.

Steam-distilled from the dried and fermented leaves of Pogostemon cablin, patchouli essential oil is a deep, musky-sweet scent with earthy spice. Known to improve in aroma and potency as it ages, patchouli has been cherished for centuries in perfumery, incense, and skin care.

In aromatherapy, it’s valued for its grounding, stabilising energy that helps calm anxiety, balance emotions, and create a sensual, harmonious atmosphere. Applied in well-diluted blends, patchouli is a restorative tonic for skin—supporting tissue regeneration and helping to ease scars, dryness, fungal concerns, and irritations. Historically used to protect fine fabrics and beloved in counterculture rituals, patchouli remains a classic choice for both atmosphere and apothecary.
