Bay Laurel Essential Oil, organic Laurus nobilis

One of the most fascinating and valuable European essential oils, with an exceptionally pleasant aroma. It is important to note that bay laurel and its essential oils are highly diverse; the composition of aromatic compounds varies depending on the country, growing conditions, soil, tree gender, and the time of leaf harvest. Therefore, the aroma of different batches may also vary slightly — this is completely natural.

With its exceptionally fresh and toning fragrance, bay laurel essential oil has traditionally been used in classic colognes and men’s fragrances; in botanical perfumery, it remains an intriguing ingredient to this day. Naturally, in the context of aromatherapy, it is valued as a source of a pleasant and well-balanced aroma.

The noble bay laurel tree is the plant of Apollo, the Greek god of light and patron of poetry and music. Used as a tool for visionary prophecies — in the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, bay leaves were burned during divination rituals, while ordinary Greeks placed bay leaves under their pillows in the hope of experiencing prophetic dreams.

Bay laurel has long been mentioned in cultural traditions as a protective and guarding plant. This belief has survived through the Middle Ages to the present day, and in Mediterranean countries bay trees are still planted near the main entrance of homes as a symbolic guardian of the household.

Laurel is a symbol of victors and achievement. Even today, wreaths made from its leaves are used at university graduation ceremonies as a symbol of honour and great recognition.

So, if you would like to wish someone dear strength and success, a bottle of bay leaf essential oil can become a meaningful gift — the aromatic molecules of this iconic tree are symbolically associated with strength, inspiration for important endeavours, and wishes for success.

Attention: this essential oil is not registered as a medicine or biocidal product.

Natural plant essential oils are valued not only for their pleasant aromas. They bring a sense of closeness to nature and help create a cosy, harmonious, and biologically pleasant environment. Such an atmosphere is especially appreciated by city dwellers who spend a lot of time indoors and is important for the naturally developing emotional balance of children.
