patchouli oil?

What does it help with?
Is it worth buying if you feel very stressed?

 

Having lived in a college town In Colorado, apparently people use it to cover up terrible body odor. It doesnt work.

 

Apparently it was very popular during the 60's & 70's.

 

I have ordered some. I'll report back how it smells effects my mood. Lavender gives me headaches.

 

Yeah,the girls wore it as a perfume.That's all.

"In 1985*Mattel*used patchouli oil in the plastic used to produce the*action figureStinkor*in the*Masters of the Universe*line of toys."

It works as a termite repellent too!

 

It has helped relieve stress. But I have found personally Bergamont, clove and frankincense, and ylang ylang to be more useful.

 

Just drink tea to relieve stress. Drink enough of it and you can get a nice buzz going.

 

I have bought some cheap matcha powder capsules. I think that would have the same effect?

 

Probably, but if you are going to spend money on capsules, you should just get l-theanne extract. That is the compound in tea that gets you "tea drunk."

 

Smelling like a goth.

It was the pervading smell of Camden Market many years ago.

 

Try Vetiver. It blends nicely with ylang ylang, too.
