Patchouli (Botanical Name: Pogostemon Cablin) has a strong earthy scent that helps to ground and integrate energy keeping you in touch with your physical body so it's a good oil to have around if you tend to space out or tend to be a little detached. It also has powerful tissue regenerating properties (cicatrizant) which makes it an excellent skin care oil when blended with other essential oils for the skin. Also good for depression and anxiety. Safe for pregnant women. Country of Origin: Indonesia
