I am with Bobbo (hey, could be written on a t-shirt), Lavender also combines well with patchouli. Some attribute aphrodisiac qualities to patchouli ... now if that don't make it smell better, I don't know what will :-)

Some people actually like the smell (myself included). Anybody else out there? Perhaps it's my fond memories of the dorms....ah the sound of Pink Floyd on a nice stereo and the tokemaster working it's way around the room....whoa..come back to reality. I'm a very different person now and do regret some of the vast amount of time wasted being wasted.
"Wasted" time in college is never really wasted. Once work starts life gets way too serious. Just my humble opinion..
Yup patchouli smells like dirty hippie.
blecccchhhhhh.
I found some patchouli oil at the Dollar General for $2 in a little bottle.
If you take incense cones and poke them in the neck of the bottle and flip upside down it makes and kind of incense smell nice(assuming you like the stuff)
I don't like the smell so much by itself but putting it on vanila incense does smell better, so I agree that the smell can work well with other scents.
I tried adding a drop to some CS soap while I was melting it in a cup, just a drop mind you.
It BURNED like FIRE !! :cry:
Step away from the patchouli man, it's not worth it!!
