Patchouli Dark Aged PA32

Our sweet and herbaceous dark patchouli with a patchoulol content of 32% has been aged for a minimum of five years. This helps to temper any unpleasant notes in the dry down and intensifies the sweetness. This is a full bodied oil with all the good and none of the bad that can be associated with poorly selected oils (including many molecular distilled oils which all too frequently amplify the bad at the expense of the good).

Despite being an earthy oil, the less dirty the dry down the higher the prestige. This dark oil has a wonderfully smooth quality that lasts. We tested dark patchouli oils from all the major suppliers in France and Indonesia and even many artisanal manufacturers to offer you the very best dark patchouli.

Patchouli is steam distilled using stainless steel or iron distilling units. Oil produced in a stainless steel vat is called “light” and it is the colour of pale straw. The classic iron distilled oil is dark (deep gold through orange to dark brown). The odour profile between the products is similar but the dark oil has a more complex and full dry down.
