That's methanol or isopropyl alcohols at close to 100% purity. Find where the oil is, and use the alcohol to lift it off of your hands or the laptop case or whatever it's on. Blot the alcohol off, and then blot on a little Dawn dish soap.
(I am not generally brand-conscious. But a few things it does matter and dish washing soap is one of them (as well as Crisco brand shortening for short-crust pastry) You of course can use any other dish washing liquid soap, but Dawn actually does work better than any of the others I have tried.)
Blot on the dish soap, rub it around the area the patchouli oils is on, and blot it off again. Rinse again with alcohol, this time cut 50-50 with water. Rub the water/alcohol mix in, then blot it off again. The smell should be pretty well diluted by now. It will finish fading off over a day or two.
My wife wears a hint of patchouli oil as perfume, has for some decades now being one of the original flower-children. Not a lot, just a touch. And it smells incredible with her skin chemistry. Makes my nose sit up and take notice.
I --LIKE-- the way patchouli oil smells, in moderation.
