If Patchouli were a woman, she would be free-spirited, raw, untamed and wild at heart. Patchouli perfume calls to mind characters like Carmen, the seductive outlaw Rita Hayworth brought to life in the 1948 film The Loves of Carmen, who entranced men with her flamenco dancing and fiery, unpredictable temperament. Therapeutically, Patchouli can uplift the mind and stimulate joy and creativity-the urge to create. It awakens the inner muse and revitalizes the inner forces that are also responsible for enlivening reproductive instincts. This inner spark when ignited helps to correct sexual dysfunction, increasing vigor. It increases circulation, generating a surge of vitality while lending a cozy warmth, pleasure and inner strength from deep inside. Patchouli encourages bodily awareness due to its grounding, earthy nature. It stimulates vitality at the root of one's physiology. Awareness of one's body grows more vibrant from within, like drinking a hot mug of sweet, spicy mulled wine on a cold rainy day. Or soaking in hot mud, feeling it squishing through your toes and thickening your hair, making every part of you feel heavy, weighted, stable, embraced and anchored. According to aromatherapy author Gabriel Mojay, "[Patchouli] works through harmonizing the Earth element and the intellect, grounding and stabilizing the mind when overthinking and worry develop." For people who have lost touch with their sensuality due to mental exhaustion from an overactive intellect, Patchouli restores the ability to fully inhabit the body so that pressure and mental strain will not block the person from becoming aroused by intimate moments.
