MoonShadow Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I wanna try some Patchouli in CP with some calendula petals. Anyone have any experience with it? Does it stick? Should I blend it? I don't have a lot of other EO's on hand, some lime, litsea and some eucalyptus...I may have a tiny bit of a lavender blend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Patchouli and CP are a match made in heaven. Patch also blends very well with the other EO's you have on hand, so double bonus!Depending on the strength and age of your patch you'll use anywhere from .5 oz PPO to 1 oz PPO. Usually the lower amount works well for the aged dark I generally buy. It's a strong base note and should stick for ages.Litsea is very strong on its own, and helps to anchor other fleeting scents, such as lime, lemon or orange. Patch will help anchor the scent of your Lime in blends (and any other citrus). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovemylabs Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 We use Patch alone and we also do a blend with Orange EO. Both sell very well for us. You just can't go wrong with Patch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just can't go wrong with Patch!I finally had a chance to soap last night, and I did a blend with 2 parts Orange EO, 1 part Patch and 2 drops each of Litsea and Lime. OMG...I thought I had died and gone to heaven as soon as I added the EO's to the soap. I now fully understand soycrazy's comment about marrying Patch is her husband let her. Me too!I'll post some pics in the gallery tonight when I cut it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iansmommaya Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 seems as though everyone else said it but patch blends wonderfully and really sticks in c.p. i just love it. i have a friend whose wife won't come in my house, when the soaping is happening because she says that if makes her smell like a hippy.
