PATCHOULI – Pogostemon Cablin – Organic Patchouli Oil

Some patchouli leaves are distilled fresh; others are left in a pile in the shade so slight fermentation can take place, breaking down the secretory cell walls before distillation. Patchouli leaves used to be placed between the valuable paisley-designed pashmina scarves the British brought back from colonial India in the nineteenth century. Fakes could be identified because they didn’t have the characteristic patchouli aroma.
