THE STORY OF NANOESSENTIAL PATCHOULI
Nanoessential Patchouli: The Earthy Aromatic Essence for Skin, Mind & Formulation Balance
Nanoessential Patchouli is a rich, earthy essential oil distilled from the leaves of Pogostemon cablin. Renowned for its grounding aroma and skin-conditioning benefits, it brings depth, warmth, and natural balancing properties to perfumes, skincare blends, aromatherapy, and wellness formulations.
Steam-Distilled from Carefully Dried Patchouli Leaves
Nanoessential Patchouli is obtained through steam distillation of sun-dried patchouli leaves. The drying process enhances the oil’s deep, resinous aroma. After distillation, the oil is aged for improved smoothness and complexity. This artisanal-meets-scientific process preserves its potent aromatic compounds, ensuring high-quality cosmetic and perfumery grades.

Formulator’s Queries, We Answered
1. What is the CAS number and INCI name of Nanoessential Patchouli?
Nanoessential Patchouli is the nano-formulated version of patchouli essential oil ( botanical: Pogostemon cablin ). The commonly referenced CAS numbers for patchouli oil are 8014-09-3 and 84238-39-1. The INCI name used for patchouli oil is Pogostemon Cablin (Patchouli) Leaf Oil
2. What is “Nanoessential Patchouli”?
Nanoessential Patchouli is patchouli essential oil processed into a nano-scale delivery system (for example nanoemulsions, nanocapsules or nano-encapsulated dispersions) designed specifically for personal-care and cosmetic formulations. The nano form improves water-dispersibility, physical stability and bioavailability of the oil’s active constituents compared with using the bulk oil alone. Recent peer-reviewed work demonstrates effective nanoemulsion and nanocapsule systems for patchouli essential oil.
3. What are the main chemical constituents and what do they do?
The principal constituent of patchouli oil is patchoulol (patchouli alcohol), along with sesquiterpenes such as α- and β-patchoulene, α-bulnesene, seychellene, pogostone and pogostol. These constituents contribute to patchouli’s characteristic woody/earthy aroma and are associated with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity that are relevant to personal-care formulations.
4. What personal-care benefits does Nanoessential Patchouli deliver?
Improved skin delivery of active molecules (better uptake and even distribution).
Enhanced stability of volatile constituents (less rapid evaporation, better shelf behaviour).
Preservative-adjunct activity — antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that can support formulation preservation strategies (note: not a replacement for validated preservative systems).
Sensory and fragrance benefits — a stable woody base note for perfumes, skin and hair products.
Multiple formulation studies and reviews show antioxidant/antimicrobial potential and successful incorporation into gels, creams and nanoemulsion systems
5. Which product types is Nanoessential Patchouli suited for?
Typical applications include: facial serums and gels, body lotions, creams, hair care (shampoos, conditioners, serums), deodorants, aromatherapy roll-ons, and leave-on or rinse-off personal-care products where fragrance plus functional benefit is desired. Nanoformats are particularly useful in water-based systems and gels where direct oils are difficult to incorporate
