Description
Earthy, smoky, woodsy, and sweet, vetiver essential oil has a rich aroma that can call to mind being in the forest at night. It’s famous for its grounding and relaxing effects and is popular in natural perfumes for both the mysterious beauty of its scent and its fixative properties. Vetiver’s tranquil presence also makes it excellent for skin care, especially for calming redness. Our organically crafted vetiver essential oil is steam distilled (in a patient, time-consuming process) from the roots of grassy plants in the rainforests of India.
Suggested Uses

Relax - Stress

Spend a few relaxing moments with a vetiver inhaler if you start feeling overwhelmed by the day’s challenges.

Mood - Optimism

Use vetiver in a perfume balm to feel calm, positive, and grounded in the moment (and to smell great!)

Complexion - Skincare

Vetiver’s calming, purifying effects are perfect for skincare! Add a single drop to your nightly moisturizer.

A Passion for Aromatherapy

Aromatics International would not be what it is today without your shared belief in what we do, what we stand for, and how we conduct our aromatherapy practice.

I embarked on my journey to source pesticide-free, sustainable products from small-scale farmers and a major criteria of mine is that everything I source is both aromatically vibrant and also therapeatically effective. I love sharing what I find in this world with others. I am constantly blown away by the positive response I receive from all of you. I thank all of you for your strong support throughout the years and am continually inspired by the warm words you share with me. It truly keeps me going.

Love, Karen
