Get your hands on a "Sex Pistols" album and play it repeatedly at full volume. Anything even vaguely hippie related will leave your house immediately, never to return.

Smoke some dope.

As I understand it, hippies wore it as it masks the smell of dope - so maybe the reverse is also true?!

It's not past tense. Just go to your local anti-war/anti-globalization protest.

My g/f spilled a bottle of that **** in a dresser drawer 10 years ago ... and you can still smell it.
Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them.

I don't mind the odor, when applied in moderation. I actually find reasonably acceptable when not in the form of an overwhelming thickness enveloping everything and everyone in its tidal wake. Conversely, it can be used liberally and offensively.

If it is on your hands, and not on everything in your house by now, I would recommend first rinsing for about 15 minutes with war (not hot) water. Then use something like Fast orange to wash your hands a couple of times. If it's on everything inthe house now, try washing the door knobs and handles (stuff you probably touched) with Murphey's soap.

It is a substance that was found in rock form on a meterite that landed in Siberia in the 1920's. The first researcher found a sample of the rock. When he approached a fire after the expedition, the rock liquified, and the smell was released. (He smelled of Patchouli for many years afterwards and as a result never married.)

It was analysed, and found to be a mineral formed by compression of plant matter such as Hemp, over millions of years and large mines have sprung up. In South American there are Patchouli Cartels, who run whole towns dedicated to mining it in in its purest rock form...

Once mined the cartels then ship it off-shore to refineries in Europe, who sort out all the distibution. it is a huge international business and forms a good part of the GDP of Poland...

Sorry couldn't resist it is a plant!

Peace,

Marc

I love the smell in moderation, it's a really 'erotic' scent imo. I have a thing for hippies so, maybe thats why. It's also got that east indian type scent to it. *shrug* as long as a person isnt doused in it, I can stand it

Indeed. War water will beat the crap outta that hippie smell. ::What is it good for?:::
