I didn't have any problems w/ my second patchouli. Grew it indoors all 
last winter. It didn't die until I put it outside for the spring and it 
died in the drought - or at least I'm thinking that's what killed it. 
(Like just about everything else I had outside.) I did have a friend 
tell me she had gotten a patchouli plant and her comment was: "it's VERY 
aromatic!" - but she didn't mention it smelling bad...hmm ...
