Very, very nice. Has a lovely earthy, woodsy scent that goes well with other woodsy or herbal scents like basil, cedarwood, and rosemary, but also blend surprisingly well with citrus oils like orange, adding a subtle earthiness to the sharp, sweet scent. Absolutely lovely.

When I choose to buy an essential oil with a cheaper price, I am always worried that the quality will be less. Camden-Grey's Patchouli e/o has the same wonderful scent in cp soaps/salves and lotion bars. No loss here.

This Patchouli brings many surprised reactions! I've had many customers smell the soap, and tell me that they prefer it highly over other Pachouli EO's they've tried. Great price too!

I find the Indonesian patchoulis generally smell a bit drier, woodier, and less sweet than the Indian ones and I would say this is a high-quality Indonesian with a particularly woody scent. The price is half that of other suppliers - at first I thought it couldn't be any good but I've found that with CG price is no indicator of quality. Buy a big bottle because it will only get better and thicker as it ages.

This is a fantastic Patchouli EO! I was worried in vain the first time I tried it. It surpassed my expectations and I use it regularly in my CP soaps, bath salts, & creams/lotions. It's what I call a "spiritual" scent. Straight from God, to Mother Earth, to us, and it's a rapture smell that ties it all together. SO many of my customers buy this often and can't get enough. I have Patchouli plants at home and this oil is right on the money.

The Patchouli oil Camden-Grey sells is one of the best smelling Patchouli oils I have encountered- a perfect blend of earthy and woodsy, with a touch of sweet. Blends excellently with lavender and vanilla. I also found that it ages beautifully, with the scent developing over time.
