Patchouli
Description
Patchouli is an earthy, musky fragrance note derived from the leaves of the patchouli plant, a member of the mint family. It has a rich, slightly sweet aroma with hints of wood and spice, and is prized for its ability to linger on the skin. Patchouli has been used in perfumery for centuries, with the finest quality coming from Indonesia.
How it feels
Patchouli is often associated with a warm, grounding, and slightly mystical aroma. It can evoke feelings of relaxation, sensuality, and introspection. Fragrances featuring patchouli are well-suited for casual, bohemian settings and can be worn year-round, though they may be particularly appealing in the cooler months.
Use in perfumery
Patchouli is a versatile fragrance note that is commonly used as a base note in perfumes, adding depth, warmth, and longevity. It is often paired with other earthy, woody, or spicy notes like sandalwood, vetiver, or vanilla. Patchouli is a staple in many oriental, chypre, and gourmand fragrance families, and is particularly prominent in many classic and modern perfumes.
