Angelica Root Essential Oil (Angelica archangelica)

Certified organic essential oil. Angelica is a protective oil that helps you feel grounded, safe, and energized, especially during cold and flu season. A few drops can support easy breathing and restful sleep. This oil also works well in massage blends for sore muscles and joints.

Our certified organic angelica essential oil is derived from the edible roots of flowering plants cultivated in France and steam-distilled. Its complex aroma, prized in perfumery, combines earthy, herbal, and woody notes. It is also often called "garden angelica," "wild celery" (due to its light celery notes), or "Norwegian angelica."

Durability and safety
Shelf life: 4 years
Safety and warnings:
Angelica oil is phototoxic – skin exposure to the sun or solarium should be avoided for up to 18 hours after application.
According to Tisserand and Young's "Essential Oil Safety", the maximum concentration in mixtures for dermal application is 0.8% (4 drops per 30 ml of carrier oil) to avoid the risk of phototoxicity.

Combinations for Angelica Oil:

Woody and balsamic (frankincense, cedar, myrrh) – stabilize the action of angelica without the risk of irritation.

Herbal (lavender, rosemary, nutmeg sage) – balance emotions, supporting relaxation, but without excessive sedation.

Safe citrus (bergamot FCF, orange, mandarin) – brighten the aroma without the risk of phototoxicity.

Floral (geranium, ylang ylang, rose) – enhance the harmonious effect without excessive sedative effect.

Some calming oils, such as vetiver and patchouli, may enhance the relaxing effects of angelica. In larger amounts, vetiver has a stronger sedative effect and may cause drowsiness, while patchouli has a more stabilizing and grounding effect.

Oils to avoid:

Phototoxic citrus fruits (lemon, FCF-free bergamot, lime, grapefruit) may increase the risk of skin reactions. Those rich in α-pinene and limonene (cypress, juniper, cajeput, niaouli) may increase the risk of skin irritation and respiratory hypersensitivity, especially at high concentrations.
