Basil, sweet

PureomEO™ Basil, sweet: 100% Pure Essential Oil

Latin: Ocimum basilicum Part: Leaf Origin: USA Method: Steam distillation Class: Monoterpenol

Aromatic Description: PureomEO’s™ Basil Essential Oil smells like the essence of summer. Picture yourself on a backyard patio in the middle of July. The laughter of friends surrounds you, good food is abundant, and the sun is gently peeking through a leafy canopy of green. On the patio sit huge earthenware pots of fresh basil. The green leaves sway gently in the breeze as they reach for the warm light above. Slight wisps of steam rise lazily from the fragrant soil, and the whole atmosphere feels infused with basil’s earthy greenness. You catch hints of spicy anise, biting black pepper, and fresh lemon, but mostly you smell pure, tangy basil, the queen of summer herbs. Your mouth starts to water as you think of the meal to come: fresh, torn leaves sandwiched between tomatoes you picked that morning, fruity olive oil, and meltingly creamy mozzarella. Yes, our basil oil is as good as the best summer salad at peak freshness. So dig in. Basil essential oil has plenty of health benefits as well, but on a day like this one, that’s hardly the point.

Directions For Use: Add 5 to 6 drops of oil to bath water. Use in our PURE-OMA diffuser. Apply to pulse points, temples, behind the ears, or anywhere the body is holding tension. Oil can also be added to PureomEO™ carrier oils for use on skin.
