Essential Oil Profiles

What Are Essential Oil Profiles??

2011-06-11T04:52:00.000-07:00

Knowing the "personality" of the oils can help you choose one to help you! You can use an oil that matches or complements your personality OR you can use an oil that contains the attributes you would like to express or develop.

For example, I am basically a MARJORAM, but want to be more floral like ROSE or JASMINE. So, I use those "florals" a lot to bring out that facet of my personality. You can read through the descriptions and perhaps find one that fits you. These profiles only contain 43 single oils. There are hundreds.

What if you are little bit of many? I can help design your own "personal" blend. Contact me if you would like a personal fragrance consultation. It takes approximately 90 minutes and it includes a 5 ml bottle of your personal blend.

Enjoy!
