This is my absolute favorite! Please bring it back. I have been out for weeks and I truly miss it. <3I now have been using this product for several years. I do not use it during the day all the time, depending on where I'm going. The reason is that it does have a distinctive patchouli smell. I sure wouldn't use it on an airplane. Lol. Typically, best for when you are outdoors. However, I always use it at night and I find it comforting when I sleep. I love the smell, but not everyone likes patchouli. I will keep buying it because I'm hooked on it. The lotion is rich and works well for hydration.My original reviews: When I first reviewed this body lotion, after using it a few days, I rated it 3 stars, and I had said: "Not smelling the patchouli and wondering about aromatherapy for this lotion. Maybe I just need to give this some more time, but this lotion does not smell of patchouli at all to me, not even an under-current. I think I'm smelling the avocado and sunflower oils, but I'm not sure. The smell is vegetable-like. Maybe I got an odd batch since other reviewers marvel at how good this smells and say the scent is like patchouli! As for the texture, it feels fairly rich and absorbs into my skin. Since I'm an aging hippie, I need hydration! I think the alcohol compounds in this formula are not going to do the job, but I will use it up. I don't think I will buy this again, however. I really wish I could give this product a much better rating. The idea is wonderful; I was really looking forward to an effective lotion with a scent like you get from some of the good patchouli soaps."I've been using it daily for the past two weeks. I admit that I needed to give this lotion more of a chance. I'm noticing that the earthy patchouli aroma seems to develop in a few hours after it's been applied. When I smell it right out of the bottle, it has a woodsy, vegetable smell to me. This Sunday when I was sitting next to a friend at a local cafe, she suddenly said, "Are you wearing patchouli?" I laughed and told her about "Aging Hippie Patchouli Body Lotion." We both had a good laugh at that. She said she definitely smelled the patchouli, but that it was not overpowering. So, I felt I should update my review and I've also changed from 3 stars to 4. On the more important topic of how effective this lotion is in treating dry skin: It is rich and absorbs well. It is fairly hydrating and soothing. This stuff grows on you (in a good way)! I might turn out to be a repeat customer after all.I liked this one so much I tried to order it again but it is out of stock.This is currently unavailable and it needs to come back soon! I love the fragrance and get so many compliments on it. I sometimes mix it with my other lotion because it's the most fragrant patchouli lotion I've ever used. I have no issues being an aging hippie and love using this product!UPDATE: This is not a scent I put on before leaving the house, however, I started putting this on before bed and have found it be very relaxing. Sometimes I’ll add a drop of lavender essential oil to the lotion and it blends very well.This is a nice product. The patchouli scent is too sharp for my personal tastes. I didn’t think about it and put some on before going to a neighbor’s house. Our neighbor, who is 81 years old, commented that I smelled like an old hippie. I told that him was good because the name of the lotion is “Aging Hippie” and we had a good laugh. So with that said, I think this product scent is spot on, but personally not for me.I love this Aging Hippie Lotion. I can't find it anymore. Are they out of business? Does anyone have any recommendations for a product that is this good?Best Patchouli scented lotion on the market. A bit spendy but worth it.If you like the scent of Patchouli - this is THE lotion to get.EDIT: 02/14/15I had ordered and enjoyed 3 Bottles from Amazon over the course of a year. Unfortunately the fourth bottle I ordered seemed severely deficit of Patchouli fragrance (the scent being the reason I had preferred the product).The Upshot is that MCS customer service responded to my query/complaint immediately by email and then after verifying my address sent a replacement bottle. The replacement bottle did possess a somewhat stronger Patchouli scent. I guess it's possible that some bottles don't contain as much fragrance due to marginal differences in the mixing process.My original (pre-edit) review still stands if you DO get a properly mixed bottle.Meanwhile I am uncertain that I'll spin the wheel of chance by ordering this product from Amazon again.I'm thinking perhaps it might be best to order this artisan cottage industry product directly from the source.OR Possibly -as much hassle as it would be to search out a quality fragrance-free hand & body lotion and mix in my choice of, and my desired amount of Patchouli essential oil - it may be worth it to be able to use a personally custom tailored product.Very nice lotion but didn’t care for smell however after a few minutes it displayed quite a bit.Has a clean smell I like after it faded.j
