Patchoulol synthase (EC 4.2.3.70) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (patchoulol-forming). ^{[1] [2] [3]} This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H₂O ${\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons }$ patchoulol + diphosphate
