Vetiver Essential Oil (Chrysopogon zizanioides)

Vetiver essential oil (Vetiveria zizanioides), 100% pure and natural, delights with a deep, earthy, and smoky aroma with a hint of sweetness and exoticism. Its heavy, warm scent evokes damp forest soil after rain—providing a sense of grounding, stability, and peace. It is one of the most enveloping and relaxing oils, highly valued in aromatherapy and natural perfumery for its calming and stabilizing properties.

Vetiver oil, obtained by steam distillation from thoroughly cleaned and soaked roots, comes from Haiti – one of the regions renowned for producing the most velvety and harmonious versions of this oil. Thanks to its high content of sesquiterpenols (including khusiomol, vetivonoids, and eudesmol), it has toning, regenerating, and supportive effects on the nervous system and skin.
