Patchouli
Pogostemon cablin
Earthy, dark and a little sweet.
Patchouli is earthy and dark, with a sweetness underneath that grows as it ages. It is a deep base note, and the best of it is patient.
The source
Cured in Indonesia
Patchouli grows in the humid tropics of Indonesia, where the leaves are picked and cured before distilling. Steam-distilled, it is earthy and dark with a sweetness that deepens as the oil ages: a base note, and the best of it is patient.
