Tarragon Oil

Artemisia dracunculus

Spicy and sweet, tarragon essential oil’s aroma combines notes of anise and basil. Its relaxing scent can help dissolve emotional and physical tension—especially in muscles. Tarragon is a strong belly oil! Due to its potent natural components (methyl chavicol), tarragon oil should be well diluted at 1% in topical blends (5 or 6 drops per 1 oz of carrier), and only used for short periods of acute need. Our certified organic tarragon essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves of wild herbs in the fields and hillsides of France.

Safety & Warnings

Essential Oil Safety by Tisserand and Young (second edition), shows research confirming Tarragon's estragole (methyl chavicol) content causes genotoxicity is all based on high oral doses. The oil may have a hepatotoxic effect when used on the skin on a daily basis. Use only for acute situations, and for short periods of time. Tarragon is considered safe when used on the skin in very small doses of 0.1%, and only occasionally. Methyl eugenol content may inhibit blood clotting. Estragole is not contraindicated for pregnancy, however, because of the antiplatelet aggregation activity, it is cautioned against breastfeeding, as it could pass into breast milk.

Tarragon Delight

As I just received it I am trying it on a muscle spasm in my back, diluted with coconut oil. Love the scent, the slight Anise scent just pops out first & seems to be following me around. It seems to be rather quickly effective without that medicinal smell.
