In China, Japan and Malaysia the Patchouli Essential Oil was used to treat colds, headaches, nausea, diarrhea and abdominal pain. In the 1960s, Patchouli became popular as an aphrodisiac and to hide the smell of marijuana on clothing. The Hare Krishna movement may have been responsible for this surge, as the god Krishna is said to "inhabit" patchouli. In addition, Patchouli Essential Oil can be used as a hair conditioner for dreadlocks. Patchouli Essential Oil is a component in about a third of modern, high-end perfumes, including more than half of perfumes for men. During the 18th and 19th century silk traders from China traveling to the Middle East packed their silk cloth with dried patchouli leaves to prevent moths from laying their eggs on the cloth. Many historians speculate that this association with opulent eastern goods is why patchouli was considered by Europeans of that era to be a luxurious scent. This trend has continued to the present day in modern perfumery. Use: Patchouli Essential Oil is anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, fungal infections (athlete's foot, jock itch, candida). Patchouli Essential Oil helps with fevers, weight loss (curbing appetite, toning and tightening skin to prevent sagging after weight loss) and diarrhea. Patchouli Essential Oil is beneficial for wrinkles, chapped skin, acne, skin allergies, lice, impetigo, sunburns, seborrhea, tissue regenerative, eczema, dermatitis, hives, deodorant and controlling perspiration, hemorrhoids, intestinal tract, insect and snake bites, nervous exhaustion, dandruff, diuretic and an insecticide.
