Oregano Oil

Oregano Oil, distilled from the leaves and flowers of the Origanum vulgare plant, is a potent essential oil celebrated for its robust, herbaceous, and slightly spicy aroma. This powerful oil is obtained through steam distillation, capturing the essence of oregano, which has been valued in aromatherapy practices for its bold, herbaceous character.

In aromatherapy, Oregano Oil is known for its ability to create a warm, invigorating atmosphere. Its warm, spicy scent is a popular choice for diffusing to freshen a space.

The composition of Oregano Oil, rich in carvacrol, thymol, and terpinene, gives it its distinctive robust, herbaceous character.

Common Uses: Oregano Oil is incorporated into natural cleaning products for its fresh, herbaceous scent. It's also used, diluted in a carrier oil, in personal care formulations for its distinctive fragrance.

Blends well with: Lavender, Rosemary, Bergamot, and Tea Tree, as well as other herbaceous and citrus oils. These combinations enhance Oregano Oil's herbaceous and spicy notes, creating aromatic blends.

Aromatic Scent: Oregano Oil offers a strong, herbaceous, and slightly spicy aroma, providing an invigorating olfactory experience.

The aroma is warm, pungent and strongly herbal, with a peppery, slightly camphoraceous edge, much like dried oregano leaf crumbled in the palm. It is a very concentrated oil, so it is measured by the drop and blended with care. It works well in herbaceous, citrus and woodsy blends, where it adds a bold, savoury note. For aromatic and external use only; dilute well in a carrier oil before any skin use and do not ingest.
