Natural thyme essential oil 10 ml Optima Natura

Thyme oil is produced in the process of steam distillation of the flowering parts (leaves and flowers) of Thymus Vulgaris or Thymus Zygis. Its liquid can be colorless, yellowish or reddish. The smell is intense, somewhat reminiscent of Thymol. No wonder, because up to 55% of thyme oil content is thymol. Other ingredients are cumin, linalool and carvacrol.

Today, the best thyme oils come from Spain. It should be noted, however, that its properties were already known in ancient Egypt - then it was used, among other things, for embalming corpses. In ancient Greece, it was intended for the strongest - it was said to give courage and bravery.

Thyme oil has versatile uses. It can be used alone or combined with others. It works perfectly as a composition with lavender, bergamot, lemon and pine oil.
