Oregano Essential Oil 50ml – Origanum Vulgare | Steam Distilled Spain

Discover the bold, herbaceous intensity of pure Oregano Essential Oil, steam distilled from the leaves and flowers of Origanum Vulgare sourced from Spain. Sharp, warm and powerfully aromatic — with a robust, peppery herbaceousness, a warm, earthy spiciness and a clean, penetrating depth — Oregano is one of the most potent, characterful and historically significant essential oils in aromatherapy and natural home fragrance.

Native to the Mediterranean, Oregano has been cultivated and prized since antiquity — its name deriving from the Greek oros (mountain) and ganos (joy), meaning ‘joy of the mountain’, a fitting tribute to a herb that has carpeted the hillsides of the Mediterranean world for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks and Romans held Oregano in the highest regard — using it in medicine, cuisine and ceremony, and believing that it was created by the goddess Aphrodite as a symbol of happiness. Couples were crowned with garlands of Oregano at weddings, and it was planted on graves to bring peace to the departed. Spain, with its warm Mediterranean climate and rich herbal heritage, produces a bold, intensely aromatic Oregano oil of exceptional character and depth.

Oregano Essential Oil is one of the most potent and powerfully aromatic oils available — its high carvacrol content giving it an exceptionally bold, warm and penetrating character that makes it a distinctive and valued ingredient in aromatherapy blending and natural home fragrance formulations. It is a popular choice for diffusing in shared spaces for its clean, purifying aromatic character, and a valued ingredient in natural cleaning and home care formulations.

This 50ml size is ideal for professional formulators, therapists and those who incorporate Oregano regularly into their practice or product making.
