The patchouli bush grows in the fertile slopes of Indonesian volcanoes. Three times a year, the peasants cut the branches of this small bush which are then distilled. The essential oil of patchouli leaves has the scent of a wood, strong, deep. It is from the earth that patchouli takes its strength. It has the scent of humid, damp and mossy note. In the composition of perfume, patchouli diffuses its depth of fragrance, enveloping, radiant and sensuel.
