A little history: Long ago, traders added patchouli to bales of luxurious Indian pashminas (the traditional name for the finest variety of special wool fabric), not for the sake of a pleasant aroma, but so that the goods are not spoiled by insects. The persistent resinous smell of patchouli, which moths could not stand, fell in love with wealthy ladies and became their business card… Modern world stopped using patchouli as a repellent for insects, moreover, he actively uses the aroma of this plant for seduction), and not only... .
Patchouli essential oil, extracted by steam distillation of fresh or slightly dried raw materials (the main components of the oil are patchoulol (patchouli alcohol) and various sesquiterpenes) has an incredibly wide range of applications:
Essential oil Patchouli has bactericidal properties. In dermatology it is recommended for eczema, fungal infections, acne, tinea pedis, dermatitis, etc.;

And of course, probably the most widest application Patchouli was found in perfumery; it adds incredible volume to the aroma. Most often used in middle and base notes.
Patchouli is a famous scent aphrodisiac. In India, women brew patchouli leaves as tea or use it as a seasoning to help restore sexual power. According to my observations, Russian women have come up with their own way of restoring this same strength: patchouli for themselves, for a man - 50 grams. cognac (recipe approximate).
Patchouli essential oil has a pronounced eroticizing effect. The unusual aroma of patchouli excites, intrigues and teases, beckons deeper and deeper. This essential oil acts on a subconscious level and if you want to spend an unforgettable night with your soulmate, two hours before his arrival, light an aroma lamp with a few drops of patchouli essential oil added, or use a regular wax candle as soon as the wax begins to melt, add a couple of drops of patchouli to it without touching the wick...
So, I got distracted, we are talking about perfumes...
Dressy ladies and young girls of the Napoleonic era covered their shoulders with chic Indian shawls on cool evenings, which became fashionable at that time and were a sign of good taste. Interest in everything exotic was gaining momentum, and fashionistas were not deterred even by the specific smell of patchouli that permeated all Indian cashmere products. The woody-resinous smell of patchouli became associated with charm and luxury, and French perfumers had no choice but to release perfumes with the scent of patchouli.
In the 19th century, patchouli-scented perfumes lost their magnetic influence, and the oriental exoticism was replaced by the practical and businesslike West. The time has come for all kinds of technical innovations, production processes reached a completely different level and the sweetish, exotic perfume of patchouli became covered with the bourgeois touch of an old grandmother’s chest. However, it was impossible to allow patchouli perfume with its time-tested aroma to ingloriously sink into oblivion. Extravagant Elsa Schiaparelli, fashion designer women's clothing, could not pass by the tempting smell. Accustomed to shocking the public, thinking in images of surrealism, Madame Schiaparelli created the amazing, original Shocking perfume in 1937, returning patchouli-scented perfumes to the bohemian French environment.
Then there were the liberated 60s. and hippies with their flower philosophy. The era of “flower power” - as the freedom-loving 60s were called in the West - smelled special: the light haze of marijuana was mixed with the spirit of sandalwood, jasmine and, of course, patchouli... The revived interest in Eastern culture automatically returned interest in woody and floral scents.
There are many fragrances, one of the ingredients of which is patchouli, as an addition to the completed composition, and there are perfumes where patchouli is the main component. I'll name a few:
Purple Patchouli - Tom Ford– one of my favorite scents. Bright, harmonious sound of patchouli, amber, vetiver
White Patchouli - Tom Ford– combines the aroma of patchouli and notes of sensual white peony. Rose and jasmine give the perfume a flair of bohemian chic.
Patchouli Patch - L"Artisan Parfumeur– Veil patchouli, that’s how the name of these unusual perfumes is translated. Patchouli is in both the top and middle notes. Oriental notes of musk and anise coexist perfectly with the warm scent of patchouli.
Patchouli Empire CB I Hate Perfume– spicy, woody aroma, pepper adds a refined bitterness to the deep aroma of patchouli mixed with woody notes.
