In Eastern cultures, it is commonly used around the house to provide general support for health and to help reduce negative emotions. It makes skin clear and helps to reduce wrinkled or chapped appearance. Patchouli is a general tonic which soothes occasional queasiness.

Patchouli oil came to fame in the 1980s as it had capability to mask the odor of remaining herbs. Today, it is greatly utilized in aromatherapy, owing to its sweet-smelling, deep, musky odor.
