Ancient Wisdom

Organic Rosemary Essential Oil (50ml)

Organic Rosemary Essential Oil (50ml)



A sharp, invigorating herb with centuries of tradition

Rosemary (Rosmarinus Officinalis) is one of the most recognisable and beloved herbs in the world, with a history stretching back to the ancient Greeks and Romans. In the ancient world, rosemary was believed to strengthen memory and became a powerful symbol of fidelity and remembrance - sprigs were tied with ribbons and given to wedding guests as tokens of love and loyalty, and the herb featured in both wedding and funeral ceremonies across cultures.

Sourced from Tunisia and steam distilled from the flowering tops of the plant - considered superior in quality to oils distilled from the stems and leaves, as noted by the British Pharmacopoeia - this is a pure, premium single-origin Rosemary oil.
