Patchouli oil
MD
Pogostemon cablin
Patchouli oil is obtained by steam
distillation of the dried leaves of
Patchouli tree (Pogostemon cablin).
It is an evergreen plant with
perfumed, downy leaves.
It is produced in large quantities,
chiefly in Indonesia.
The odour of patchouli is extremely
complex: camphorated, earthy and
woody all at once.
Patchouli oil, MD is obtained by
molecular distillation of Patchouli
oil. Free of iron and of stable colour,
it prevents undesirable colour
reactions in all perfumery
compounds.
