From Wild Field to Tiny Bottle

A humble seed with an unexpectedly profound character.

- Carrot seed oil is steam-distilled from the dried seeds of Daucus carota sativa, the same plant family as the wild carrot known as Queen Anne's Lace.

- Long valued in European folk traditions and classical herbalism, the seeds were treasured for their warming, earthy aroma and skincare uses.

- Its scent profile is unmistakable — dry, rooty, slightly sweet and herbaceous, like walking through a sunlit field after rain.

SAFETY

Dillution guideline

  • For topical use, dilute to 1–2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba, argan or sweet almond (approx. 6–12 drops per 30 ml).

  • Patch test

Always patch test: apply a small amount of the diluted blend to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before broader use.

  • Children

Not recommended for children under 6. For older children, use only at very low dilution (max 0.5%) and consult a qualified aromatherapist.

  • Pregnancy

Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding unless under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.

  • Pets

Keep out of reach of pets; cats and dogs are particularly sensitive to essential oils, so diffuse only in well-ventilated spaces and never apply to animals.

  • Photosensitivity

Not typically associated with photosensitivity.

  • Ingestion

Do not ingest unless under the guidance of a qualified medical or aromatherapy professional.

  • Storage

Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat; best used within 2–3 years of opening.
