Pogostemon Cablin Leaf Oil

The details

This ingredient is also known as Patchouli oil. Its main role is to add a warm, earthy, and musky scent to products. Patchouli exhibits slight antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal activity from its patchoulol, beta-caryophyllene, pogostone content. Like all essential oils, this ingredient is a known sensitizer at higher concentrations. This is because this oil also contains known skin-irritating fragrances, limonene and camphor . Limonene and camphor are both known EU allergens. While patchouli oil holds FDA GRAS ("generally recognized as safe") status, it is typically used at low levels and subject to usage guidelines. Those with sensitive skin should patch test before using.
