Absolute Aromas Geranium (Egyptian) Oil 10ml

Geranium has deodorising, cleansing and uplifting properties as well as being a good insect-repellent.

Egyptian Geranium is preferred by many because it has a lighter more subtle aroma compared to the same species, Geranium Bourbon, from the island of La Reunion (previously known as Ile de Bourbon), 500 miles east of Madagascar. The species is the same, it is the growing conditions which make the difference between the two types.

Geranium (Eygptian) Oil - pelargonium graveolens.

Method of Extraction: The oil is steam distilled from from the plant's leaves.

Try blending 1 drop of Geranium with 2 drops of Lavender and 2 drops of Mandarin in a teaspoon of Sweet Almond oil for use as a relaxing, refreshing bath or massage oil.

Alternatively, blend the same oils with two teaspoons of Peach Kernel oil for a special hydrating body moisturiser with a delicious aroma. In a diffuser or burner, Geranium blends very well with the citrus oils.

After a long haul flight, try blending together 2 drops of Geranium, 1 Drop each of Juniper and Lavender in 10 ml of Peach Kernel; massage in to the ankles to encourage elimination.
