About essentail oil
Cistus essential oil, also known as Rock Rose essential oil, is derived from the resin of the Cistus ladanifer plant, a shrub native to the Mediterranean region. The resin is collected by making small incisions on the plant's branches, and the oil is obtained through steam distillation.
The essential oil has a deep, rich aroma that is often described as warm, earthy, and resinous. It possesses a unique and complex scent profile, making it a sought-after ingredient in perfumery and aromatherapy.
Cistus essential oil is known for its potential skin-regenerating properties. It is believed to help with skin issues such as scars, wrinkles, and blemishes. The oil's astringent qualities make it suitable for toning and firming the skin.
In aromatherapy, cistus oil is valued for its grounding and centering effects. It can promote emotional balance, reduce stress, and aid in meditation and relaxation practices.
The oil is often used in natural perfumes to add depth and fixative properties to fragrances. Its resinous and warm scent can provide a unique and lasting base note in perfumery blends.
