Palmarosa Essential Oil Steam Distilled 50 ml

Softly floral with a fresh, rose-like edge, palmarosa essential oil brings a green, gently sweet scent to daily aromatherapy. Steam distilled from the grass of Cymbopogon martinii in India, it suits diffusers, oil burners and carefully diluted blends where you want a light botanical note rather than a heavy perfume.

A rose-like scent with green softness

• The first impression is floral and clean, with a natural rose-like character that feels airy rather than powdery.
• Its grassy source gives the aroma a fresh, green lift, keeping the sweetness balanced.
• Use it when a room wants something softer than citrus and lighter than resin or spice.
• It blends naturally into quiet evening rituals, bath-time preparations and simple home fragrance moments.
• The amber-toned bottle and black ribbed cap give it a practical apothecary feel on a shelf or treatment table.

From Indian grass, steam distilled

This oil comes from the grass of Cymbopogon martinii, sourced from India and extracted by steam distillation.

Palmarosa in aromatherapy practice

Palmarosa is often chosen by aromatherapy users for its gentle floral character, especially when a blend needs the feeling of rose without the depth or intensity of a true rose oil. Its place in a formula is usually soft, sitting comfortably beside floral, herbaceous or citrus oils. In a home ritual, it works best as a quiet background scent: a few diluted drops in a carrier oil, a small addition to a diffuser blend, or a fragrant note in a foot soak prepared with proper dilution.

Using it with care

Add only a small amount to a diffuser or oil burner, following the guidance for your device. For skin use, dilute in a suitable carrier oil first and patch test before wider use.

Keep essential oils away from children and pets, and avoid use during pregnancy unless guided by a qualified professional. Store tightly closed, away from heat and direct light.
