Basil Sweet Essential Oil (Ocimum basilicum ct Linalool)

Certified organic basil oil ct linalool from Greece – mild chemotype

Certified organic sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) essential oil, chemical type linalool, has a fresh, herbal, slightly sweet aroma with a subtle anise note. Its scent helps clarify the mind, promotes concentration, and a sense of productivity, making it perfect for times of intense mental activity and a busy day.

Basil oil (ct linalool) is particularly valued in aromatherapy for its properties supporting emotional balance. It can provide relief when mental or emotional stress manifests as tension in the body—especially in the belly, neck, or shoulders. Its aroma promotes calm, a sense of inner peace, and calm, stable energy for action. This oil combines mental clarity with a sense of harmony and empowerment, helping maintain balance and smooth functioning even on the most demanding days.

Basil oil is obtained by steam distillation from organically grown basil leaves in the Central Macedonia region of Greece. Due to its high linalool content, this chemotype is considered milder and more skin-friendly than other basil varieties, making it a good choice for aromatherapy and cosmetic blends (always after appropriate dilution).
