Patchouli fragrance is mostly associated with the 1960s, where it was often used neat as a perfume. However, it is used in a variety of fragrances and adds a deep, sweet and spicy scent that works beautifully with a range of other oils.

You may think that it comes from a root; however, the patchouli fragrance comes from the mint family and has small green leaves and soft purple flowers.

It’s a great ingredient within many perfumes as it can enhance and increase the longevity of fragrance oils, especially rose. Also, it helps aid sleep, so you can get a restful night.

Our favourite scents with patchouli fragrance

  • One of our most popular fragrances is Black Pomegranate. It is a delicate combination of patchouli, sandalwood, pomegranate with a hint of rose. It is reminiscent of an opulent Moroccan garden filled with exotic flowers and plants. Also, both sandalwood and rose reduce stress and aid sleep. So, it is the perfect candle to light in a relaxing bath or just before bed to get you a great nights sleep.
  • Try our Dark Amber fragrance with combines patchouli with leather, cedar, warm spices and bergamot for a traditional aroma. It evokes memories of old tobacco shops with deep leather chairs. We love it in living spaces, where you can get the real benefits of soothing patchouli fragrance, to create a welcoming and warm atmosphere for you and your guests. We love lighting a Dark Amber candle in the colder evenings. However, our reed diffusers are a perfect alternative if you would like the fragrance all day long.
