Parsley Seed Oil

Parsley Seed Oil, extracted from the seeds of the Petroselinum crispum plant, is a potent essential oil with a warm, spicy, and herbaceous aroma. This oil is obtained through steam distillation, capturing the essence of parsley seeds. Parsley Seed Oil is appreciated in aromatherapy and perfumery for its warm, herbaceous character.

In aromatherapy, Parsley Seed Oil is recognized for its warm, grounding scent. Its herbaceous aroma is a popular choice for earthy, spice-forward blends.

Parsley Seed Oil is also sold as parsley seed essential oil or parsley oil. Unlike the fresh, green smell of the leafy herb, the oil from the seed is deep, warm and spicy, with a rich earthy base and a faint herbaceous edge. It is a strong, distinctive ingredient, so perfumers and soap makers generally use it sparingly as an accent, where it adds a dry, woody, spice-forward character to blends with citrus, floral and herbaceous oils.

The composition of Parsley Seed Oil, rich in apiole, myristicin, and limonene, gives it its distinctive warm, spicy character.

Common Uses: Parsley Seed Oil is incorporated into skincare formulations for its herbaceous fragrance. It's also used in massage oil blends for its warm, spicy scent and in perfumery for its distinctive aroma.

Blends well with: Clary Sage, Orange, Rose, and Tea Tree, as well as other spice and herbaceous oils. These combinations enhance Parsley Seed Oil's warm and herbaceous qualities, creating aromatic blends.

Aromatic Scent: Parsley Seed Oil offers a warm, spicy, and slightly herbaceous aroma with earthy undertones, providing a grounding and invigorating olfactory experience.

Like all concentrated essential oils, Parsley Seed Oil is for aromatic and external use only. Keep it away from eyes, children and pets, dilute it well in a carrier oil before it touches skin, and store the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark place.
