Great. I just didn’t know patchouli was popular between “hippys” 🙂

  Oh yes. It was very popular in the late sixties and early seventies: almost symbolic of the “flower power” period.
  
  You should use “among” and not “between” when you are talking about more than two people or things: “Patchouli was popular among hippies”. You can also use “with” after “popular”.
