Hi all, so I looked through some discussions on what patchouli blends well with and now I need some final thoughts from you all. I typically would go to the Rainbow Blend webpage but that is gone, sadly :cry:

I was going to try to blend with one or two of the following:

cedarwood, pine, lavender, or rosemary.

I am leaning towards lavender and rosemary but then how many parts for each oil??? I am also curious about a cedarwood, pine, and patchouli blend but again how many parts per EO?

I greatly appreciate your help and knowledge. I wish wish wish the Rainbow site would sell the software for their blend calculator, I loved that tool sooooooooooooo much!
 
3 parts lavender
2 parts rosemary
1 part spearmint
1 part cedarwood
2 or 3 drops of patchouli
 
Cedarwood, lavender and patch makes a lovely combo. Try it at equal ratios.

You can experiment with drops on a cotton ball or coffee filter. Put it in a baggie and smell a couple of hours later and see how you like it. Adjust as needed and take notes!
 
Hi ladies thank you for the response :D I was getting anxious to make a patchouli soap and almost just winged it which I am not good at so you two saved me :wink: I am going to try both as they both sound wonderful! Perfect project for a rainy couple of days here in PA.
