Description
Patchouli is a plant from Indonesia whose leaves, when distilled, yield an essence with a woody, damp, earthy, even camphoraceous and cocoa-like odour. Its scent arrived in Europe via trunks filled with shawls from India; patchouli having insecticidal properties, it would be wrapped around precious fabrics to protect them from moths. It fell into disuse before the second half of the 20th century but was brought back to the forefront by American hippies for its supposed aphrodisiac properties. It is one of the most important raw materials in perfumery, since it allows to structure a composition, to bring complexity or depth. Our Patchouli brings out all its facets with the help of cashmeran and a rare and regressive cocoa extract.
