patchouly
Hippie perfume scent
Patchouly is a variant spelling of patchouli, a fragrant plant native to Southeast Asia whose leaves yield a strong, earthy essential oil.
The scent is musky and persistent, widely used in perfumes, incense, and aromatherapy.
Patchouly became associated with the counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s, when it was favored by hippies, and it still carries those associations for many people.
The shop smelled of patchouly and sandalwood.
