Rosemary Essential Oil 10 ml

Rosemary essential oil captures the fresh, herbal-resinous aroma of a Mediterranean garden — refreshing while you work, soothing in the bath.

Rosemary is an aromatic evergreen shrub with needle-like leaves and fragrant white, pink, purple or blue flowers. Native to the Mediterranean and Asia, it is reasonably hardy in cooler climates too and copes well with drought, surviving long periods without water. Now classified as Salvia rosmarinus, it was known until 2017 as Rosmarinus officinalis. It belongs to the mint family (Lamiaceae), which includes many other culinary herbs.

Rosemary has long been used as a culinary herb, a food preservative, an ornamental shrub and an ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics. It was once considered a magical, spiritual herb. In aromatherapy it is valued for a scent that is both refreshing and settling.
