That is part of my attraction to it Fuzzy. I've spent much of my job site time around primers and paints. Sense of smell has somewhat recovered being out of the warehouse / woodshop environment. While I'll choose a soap with a mild scent for it's performance, better if it works and smells loud and agreeable. Thanks Jim! It's all low roof with gentle slope work. I'm too old for bouncing off the ground so safe procedures rule. Thank you Clint! Thank you Joe! Couple decades ago I took my family to the Renaissance Festival near Atlanta. One of the vendors sold Essential Oils and patchouli was voted our favorite. The whole family dabbed a drop whenever they felt the desire. It reminds me of that time when my kids were early to mid teens. I was too young to have been a Hippy during the '60's & '70's and don't recall smelling it back then. Since then I've purchased small quantities from different places. Most of it is distilled in India and there's much variation in the scent. Depends on the plants used and how it was processed. I've looked into planting one in the yard so I can smell it fresh from the source. More info HERE.
