Aroma: Patchouli has a sweet, rich, herbaceous, earthy aroma.

Extraction: Essential oil is obtained through
steam distillation of the dried leaves.

Benefits:Patchouli strengthens the base
chakra that is the gravity center of our
physical nature. The aroma encourages
harmony between physical pressure, the
hormonal system, and our idealistic
aspirations.  This may explain some of the
fascination younger generations have had
with this oil.  Patchouli induces the pituitary
gland to produce endorphins.  Those who
wear patchouli emanate an irresistible attraction. 
Perfume with Patchouli will appeal to natural rebels,
and during maturing years will help promote a youthful
state of mind.

Blends: Patchouli blends with Bergamot, Citronella, Geranium, Lavender, Orange, Rosewood, Sandalwood, and Ylang Ylang.

Safety Precautions: Non toxic
