I’ve told you folks a few times now that you need to throw your ancient bottles out because the ingredients change with time and can not only smell different, they can be hazardous to your skin. However, it’s awfully fun when I discover someone who has been preserving some Kamala’s Own Perfumery history! These bottles are probably at least 35 years old!!! Next year the business turns 40 years old! I can’t believe it! We will be doing all sorts of things to celebrate including a big party in the store on 4/4/2026! Mark your calendars now! 🎉

One of the most frequently asked questions I hear is “do you have a love potion?” I created Potion of Luuv decades ago and the first time I wore it—I kid you not—I got three marriage proposals. In the intervening years, it has racked up dozens of other stories about its effects. For those who like Patchouli, it is a must have. Try it for yourself at Kamala.com or come into our Barrington store for the complete olfactory experience.

Did you know that Patchouli essential oil has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties? These properties can reduce skin redness and help heal irritated skin. Patchouli is one of the main ingredients in Parvati, my blend honoring the Hindu goddess of marriage (among other things). Try Parvati at Kamala.com or come into our Barrington, IL store for the complete experience!

Did you know that Patchouli oil is anti bacterial? That’s why it’s included in many deodorant products. However, it should not be applied directly to your armpits. It needs to be mixed with a carrier oil and other essential oils to be effective as a deodorant. Our Nostalgia perfume blend features Patchouli as part of its base note, and is available for purchase at Kamala.com or in our Barrington, IL store. Remember that we are also having a candle sale through the 15th of this month!

Today’s Patchouli blend bears two names: Herne and Hunter. This scent is one of my all time favorite blends to smell on my husband. Its earthy combination of Patchouli, Cedar, and Clove is very appealing. Did you know that Patchouli is one of the very few essential oils which actually improves with age? Most essential oils have a limited shelf life and should be used or disposed of within a year or two. However, Patchouli and blends made with it defy that rule and can be kept much longer. Check out all 500+ oils at Kamala.com or come into our store in Barrington, IL! Keep following us for more facts about Patchouli!

It’s our month to celebrate scents based in Patchouli! Did you know that Patchouli originally came to the attention of the Western world as a moth repellent? In Victorian England, shawls were shipped from India impregnated with Patchouli to repel moths. When the shawls became fashionable, so did the Patchouli oil with which they were scented. Keep following us to read more fun Patchouli facts!
