of hippies everywhere, the flowering herb, with its warm, woody, musky smell, was a symbol of opulence and prestige – rumour has it that King Tut was buried with gallons of patchouli oil. Photography by Oskar Proctor.

Centuries later, Madonna put her own spin on the scent by infusing it into pressings of her 1989 album, while in 2005, perfumer extraordinaire Serge Lutens launched iconic scent Borneo 1834, which blended patchouli with white fowers, cardamom, cacao and labdanum.Rhizome’s minimalist packaging belies an intriguingly complex range of fragrances.
