Extraction

Oregano essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the dried flowering plant. It appears as a pale yellow liquid (which turns brown as it ripens) with an unmistakable warm, spicy, and herbaceous aroma.

Affinity

Oregano essential oil harmonizes well with the essential oils of: Camphor, Cedar, Citronella, Lavender, Pine, Ravensara, Rosemary as well as with Oakmoss absolute.

Property

Oregano is a plant with an ancient medicinal reputation, used as a natural remedy for various respiratory and digestive problems. The essential oil extracted from it has strong antimicrobial, antiviral, fungicidal, and rubefacient properties. In the past, it was used as a dermatological medication to treat insect bites.
Toxic, irritating, and notoriously stinging, it should never be applied directly to the skin, but only in low concentrations, diluted first in a vegetable oil (such as almond or sesame).

Uses

Oregano essential oil is typically used as a fragrance component in soaps, colognes, and perfumes (especially in men's fragrances) as well as in the food industry as a meat flavoring.

Botany

Native to Europe, oregano is now cultivated worldwide.
It is a creeping herbaceous plant with a woody stem that grows up to ninety centimeters tall, with small, dark green leaves and pinkish-white flowers.
There are over thirty varieties, and perhaps for this reason, it is often classified botanically inaccurately (it is often confused with marjoram).
