Discover the bold, herbaceous intensity of pure Oregano Essential Oil, steam distilled from the leaves and flowers of Origanum Vulgare sourced from Spain. Sharp, green and powerfully aromatic — with a bold, camphorous herbaceousness, a warm, slightly spicy depth and a clean, medicinal clarity — Oregano is one of the most potent, characterful and widely respected essential oils in professional aromatherapy and natural wellness practice.
One of the most ancient and celebrated herbs of the Mediterranean world, Oregano has been prized since antiquity across Greece, Rome and the wider Mediterranean — its name deriving from the Greek 'oros' meaning mountain and 'ganos' meaning joy, translating beautifully as 'joy of the mountain'. Wild Oregano has carpeted the sun-baked hillsides of the Mediterranean for millennia, used by the ancient Greeks and Romans in medicine, ceremony and daily life, and remaining one of the most important and widely used culinary and medicinal herbs in the world to this day. Spain's warm, dry Mediterranean climate produces Oregano of exceptional aromatic intensity and quality.
With its bold, sharp and powerfully clarifying character, Oregano Essential Oil is a highly valued and respected choice for professional aromatherapy blending — one of the most potent essential oils available, and one that rewards careful, considered use. Its high phenol content gives it an exceptionally powerful aromatic profile and makes it a particularly valued ingredient in professional formulation.

How to Use:
- Diffusion/Oil Burner: Add 1–2 drops only to your diffuser or oil burner — Oregano is exceptionally potent and a very little goes a very long way; blend with softer oils to balance its intensity
- Blending: Blends well with Lavender, Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Cedarwood, Frankincense and other herbal, woody or resinous essential oils — use sparingly as a supporting note
- Topical: Always dilute thoroughly with a carrier oil before any topical application — Oregano must always be well diluted due to its high phenol content
Cautions: Oregano Essential Oil is one of the most potent essential oils available — use with care and always in very low dilutions. High phenol content — possible skin sensitisation and irritation; always dilute well with a carrier oil before topical use and perform a patch test before use. Not suitable for use on sensitive skin.
