About myrtle (Myrtus communis):

Myrtle is an evergreen shrub from the myrtle family, native to the Mediterranean region. The essential oil is extracted from the leaves and twigs through steam distillation and has a clear, fresh, herbaceous scent, similar to eucalyptus. Myrtle contains valuable constituents such as 1,8-cineole, alpha-pinene, and myrtenyl acetate. The plant has been traditionally valued for millennia – from the ancient Greeks and Romans as a symbol of love and beauty to modern aromatherapy for respiratory health, skin health, and hormonal balance. Myrtle is particularly known for its gentle yet effective properties and is often referred to as "gentler eucalyptus."

Perfect for:

• Respiratory support during colds
• Skincare for blemished, oily skin
• Refinement of large pores
• Hair care for healthy, shiny hair
• Positive influence on glandular imbalances
• Air purification and fresh atmosphere
• Aromatherapy for emotional well-being
• Gentle alternative to eucalyptus

Aroma profile:

Myrtle has a clear, fresh, herbaceous scent with camphoraceous, slightly sweet notes, similar to eucalyptus, but softer and milder. The aroma is clarifying, refreshing, and calming.
