Strong, warm, herbaceous and spicy, Oregano is one of the more powerful essential oils in the aromatherapist’s toolkit.

Rich in naturally occurring constituents such as carvacrol, Oregano is traditionally associated with cleansing, respiratory and immune-supportive blends. Its penetrating aroma can also feel warming, strengthening and energizing when you need something a little more assertive.

Oregano blends well with Tea Tree, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Lemon, Basil, Thyme, Frankincense and Fir.

Because Oregano essential oil is highly concentrated, a little goes a long way. It should always be well diluted before skin application and is best used as a small part of a carefully formulated blend.

Aroma: Warm, penetrating, herbaceous and spicy Plant Part: Leaves and flowering tops Extraction: Steam distilled

Casaroma Note: Oregano is a wonderful reminder that natural does not mean weak. Used thoughtfully, a very little can do a great deal.
