Product Description
Sourced from Madagascar and steam distilled from the flowers of the Pelargonium graveolens plant, Geranium Bourbon Essential Oil offers a beautifully complex aroma — rose-like with subtle hints of citronella and mint. A middle note, it blends effortlessly with citrus, floral, spicy, and woody oils, making it a versatile choice for aromatherapy and cosmetic formulations.
Valued for its toning, balancing character, Geranium Bourbon is widely used in skincare to tone and soothe, and is traditionally used in aromatherapy for its calming, balancing aroma, making it a valued essential oil in natural wellness blends. Ideal for creams, serums, massage oils, and diffuser blends — this is a true floral powerhouse with therapeutic depth.
