A flowering herb in the Lamiaceae (mint) family, patchouli features fragrant foliage, which is the source of its essential oil.
Originating in the warmer climes of Asia, the plant yields a notably potent oil and distillation in iron vats leads to the deep, fuller patchouli as opposed to subtler patchouli light which is distilled in stainless-steel containers.
