Gorgeous dark, musky scent. very deep and complex. I put a *little bit* in with black spruce (same company) and it's stunning. It's very potent. a little goes a long way.

I’ve been a fan of patchouli since the 1960s. We’ve been making soap for over fifteen years and NDA dark patchouli is the best Patchouli we’ve ever found. Warm, earthy, sensuous, intriguing; it is the most popular of all the goats milk soaps we make. NDA has quality and affordability, a convenient to use website and fast high quality shipping. We purchase all of our essential oils from NDA now as well as our carrier oils. Proud to be a repeat customer and We highly recommend their products to friends, pharmacies and other shapers.

I'm usually not a big fan of patchouli but this is a very high quality oil,and the scent is much more pleasing to me than other patchouli that I've tried. Compared to the light version this has a very heavy and dank smell,its very earthly and bold and not as sweet smelling. Its a very potent oil,blending with other scents you can easily overpower all other oils with this one,it's very strong! Overall I feel this was a great purchase even though I don't like patchouli the most,I still cherish it. Thank you new directions.

I mix patchouli with another essential oil in a base of aloe vera gel to use as a hand cleaner when I am out on errands. When I handed my receipt to the checker at the exit of a big membership store, she exclaimed, "Oh, I smell patchouli!" Ann, California

Love the Patchouli. I mix my own chakra blends and Patchouli along with myrrh and cedar wood are the primary elements in the root chakra oil. Whenever I wear the oil I get plenty of compliments from people. I believe it brings people back to the 60's. I also have used it in my facial wash and shampoo. It really enhance and invigorates my showers.

This is an amazing Patchouli Oil. I remember the first time I smelt this oil I was in the gym 23 yrs. ago and I fell in love with this fragrant EO oil and had to have it. I love , love, love this earthy scent. I had a friend to ask me last night what is that smell at my house. She said she can smell it while walking up to my front door on a very cold winter morning below zero out here in Indiana and she smelt it approaching my door. She described it as mediciney I knew what she was talking about this is what my husband describes this lovely Patchouli Oil as. I have been purchasing this oil here at NDA for the past 9 years and as long as they don't change the fragranct note in this oil I will continue to purchase this oil from here. The price is a very good price for this oil. This oil is like wine it gets better with time. When my kids leave my home wherever they go they tell my kids you smell like your momma "you must have just left your momma house." I gets LOTS compliments with this wonder Patchouli Oil. I can't say enough about this oil I love it sooooo!!!! Much. I wish was more than 5 stars to give because it just this amazing..

NDA you have cornered the market on the true meaning of " quality product at an affordable price". Ive been buying Patch for 30 years so I can say this with confidence.. This EO is wonderful - rich and deep. What a price too. If you are a real patchouli lover that collects and stores it like wine, this one is a must have for your collection. Only draw back is better buy two one to use and one to age, otherwise you will be dipping into your stash way to often cuz this one really doesn't need any more time as is. Can you imagine how lovely it will be later.

Wonderful, strong, rich fragrance from this dark patchouli. It doesn't smell too great out of the bottle (even in dilution), but on exposure to air, it transforms into a rich and earthy smell. I suspect this is why people say that Patchouli gets better with age. In hot or cold process soap, however, you need not age it in the bottle since the finished bars age while exposed to air. A few days is enough. Blends fantastically with sweet orange 5-fold.

Absolutely the MOST AMAZING and lovely Patchouli I have smelled in 30 years! The first whiff I got of it took me back to the first time I smelled a REALLY good, expensive Patchouli and fell totally in love with it... just fabulous! Smells wonderful in my CP soap and blends well - sticks very well in CP soap too - quite long-lasting, and a little goes a long way. I need less of this oil than I do of most other essential oils when soapmaking, as it is a good strong scent. (Love it as a perfume and in various other things I make for myself - I LOVE a good Patchouli!) I am SO glad I took a chance on the 16 oz bottle - I only dared because of the many excellent reviews that gave me the confidence to try it. I consider myself to be somewhat of a Patchouli connoisseur, since it has been my favorite essential oil and only "perfume" I've used for nearly 35 years, and this is definitely among the best I've ever come across. (I'm reviewing the "Dark" Patchouli)

NDA is the only place I have ever bought Patchouli and I love it, I still have one of the first bottles I've purchased from here 5 yrs ago and it is true, Patchouli only gets better with age, it's deeper, smokier, rich and earthy, I save my aged oil for the special products and I just bought another bottle for everyday blending. It really "fixes" your scent blends and is amazing with amber,vanilla, sandalwood, rose and lavender blends. I will always have this oil on hand.

Patchouli Dark was my first purchase from NDA. My intent was to find a thick, earthy pachouli and this is it! I've put it in shampoo, conditioner, skin moisturizer, my vacuum, in the dryer in place of dryer sheets and my husband practically rolls in it. Unless the composition changes severely, I will not purchase this oil anywhere else. I had no idea except by reading reviews that this oil is purported to relieve skin ailments - doesn't matter, the smell to me is so grounding it doesn't have to do anything else.

This patchouli is amazing! I love its deep, earthy, spicy, piquant scent, and I simply can't get enough of it. It's great with lavender, and does wonders to offset the sweetness of more floral scents like ylang ylang. I look forward to seeing how the scent matures over time. It's definitely worth getting 100mL instead of 15mL--you'll find uses for it!

I thought this dark patchouli would be thicker, but regardless, I love the smell and it's doing an amazing job of shrinking those mystery balls of I-don't-know-what They are like cysts, I suppose, that show up on the hands and wrists. Overnight one large and rather painful one showed up on the top of my hand, and it was BIG. I immediately started rubbing this lovely scented patchouli, neat on the area, and in less than 2 weeks, it has shrunk to half it's size and is no longer painful. I sometimes combine it with some lavender neat, as I understand that both can do something for these cyst-like creatures that appear on the hands and wrists. I wasn't sure it would work, but seeing is believing. I see there's an organic patchouli out now too. I must try that as well, as order another bottle of the dark, so I can let it age a little. But I'm still waiting on the South African lavender to reappear before I place another order.

A fantastic value for this type of oil! On its own, it is *very* musky and earthy, but in a good way. Though I'll use it straight in my Dr. Bronner's liquid soap, I also like to feminize it and turn it into a homemade "perfume" by wearing 3 drops mixed with either NDA rose or jasmine fragrance oil (2 drops of one or the other) mixed on my wrists, then dotted where ever else (usually neck, decolletage, insides of elbows, under the arms, etc.) I want to smell good. And let me tell you, whenever I wear this concoction, I receive TONS of compliments. In the last month alone, I have given three complete strangers NDA's Web site info so they could order their own as they were that taken by this oil's fragrance.

I have 2 bottles of this wonderful oil. One is a bottle from a year and a half ago, well aged in the back of a friend's pantry and the other is fresh, purchased in February of this year. This Patchouli is rich and smokey. Not quite the gorgeous deep chocolate note that you get from some Patchouli's, but much more murky and smokey. Quite lovely :) The aged patchouli has intensified and deepened both the characteristic patch smell and the smoke. Good, but could be better :)

I love the scent on its own but the beauty of Patchouli comes from its ability to enhance so many other essential oils and make the perfect blends. I am a cold process soaper among other things and Patchouli lends its staying power to blends through that process. I have yet to have a customer with eczema whom did not respond to the powers of patchouli in various combinations in creams and balms. Of course the fact that it is the only oil that I know of that improves with age versus disipating makes it my first choice oil. New Directions does have the best prices for this high quality oil. If I could rate it excellent + I would.
