Origin & Lore

Patchouli is Pogostemon cablin, a leafy herb of the mint family native to tropical Asia, whose dried and fermented leaves are distilled for oil. In hoodoo it is used for love and money, and in modern witchcraft for earth, grounding and sensual work. This oil carries its deep, earthy scent for passion, fulfilment and relaxation.

Unlike most perfume oils, patchouli is said to grow richer and smoother as it ages, and perfumers have long prized well-aged stock.

Patchouli reached Europe on Indian textiles in the nineteenth century, and its scent became associated with the exotic East. Modern witchcraft writers attributed it to Saturn and the element of Earth, and it is used in money spells as well as love.
