Singapore Patchouli

Singapore patchouli (Pogostemon cablin grown in Singapore and southern Malaysia) is one of the most prized origins for patchouli oil, producing a distillate that is markedly sweeter, more wine-like, and less earthy than Indonesian or Indian patchouli. The leaves are dried and aged before steam distillation; the oil improves with cellar maturation, where long-aged Singapore patchouli takes on chocolate, cocoa, and red-wine facets. The material anchors chypre and oriental compositions and appears in Mugler Angel, Tom Ford Tobacco Oud, Le Labo Patchouli 24, and many heritage-oriental bottles. Singapore patchouli pairs especially well with rose, sandalwood, vanilla, and labdanum for autumn evening compositions. Browse Singapore-patchouli-led fragrances at the Singapore patchouli collection.
