Though the patchouli herb had been used for many centuries in Asian countries, it came to be appreciated in Europe only in 1840s through its unique aroma associated with the exported Indian fabrics. This led to the popularization of patchouli and extraction of its essential oil. The name ‘patchouli’ also originated in India.
The Patchouli plant is a small bushy herb from the genus Pogostemon and produces pale pinkish-white flowers with patchouli oil produced from its leaves. It grows in warm tropical climates and thrives in hot weather but not in direct sunlight. The patchouli plant grows from two to three feet high and is a member of the mint family.
