Patchouli - Rare Premium Reserve
Patchouli - Rare Premium Reserve
If you are one of the many people who believe that you don’t like patchouli, chances are you have only encountered cheap health food store versions.
This rare premium 100% pure steam distilled reserve patchouli essential oil has been aged for 8 years in oaken kegs in India. It has a truly beautiful aroma with great depth and complexity.
When blending, you will need to dilute this intense oil even more than usual for most applications. A single drop of patchouli oil in a 1 ounce bottle of filtered coconut or other carrier oil, is still strong enough to use in making blends and formulas.
Added to essential oil blends, patchouli reserve essential oil often grounds the blend and makes the energetic properties more accessible. Try adding just a drop of pre-diluted patchouli reserve essential oil (not undiluted oil) to your next blend after you have completed it, and notice what happens.
Patchouli is used in many natural perfumes. It adds staying power (tenacity) to every blend that it touches, and acts as a great fixative.

Inhaling it has the effect of slowing down the perception of time. It can be stimulating to some people and sedative to others.
