Extraction

Valerian essential oil is obtained by water distillation of the roots. It appears as a straw-yellow liquid that turns brown as it matures, with a typical woody, grassy-balsamic, warm scent with a mossy undertone.

Affinity

Valerian essential oil harmonizes well with the essential oils of: Bucco, Cedar, Lavender, Mandarin, Patchouli, Petitgrain, Pine, Rosemary, Vetiver and with Oakmoss absolute.

Property

Valerian has been held in high regard since the Middle Ages, so much so that it was nicknamed "panacea" due to its use against a wide range of ailments (especially those related to nervous tension). Valerian essential oil is completely non-toxic and non-irritating, but should be used sparingly as it can cause sensitization. It has anti-furfural, antiseptic, sedative, and even hypnotic properties. Diffused in a closed environment (perhaps using a diffuser), it promotes drowsiness.

Uses

Valerian essential oil is used in the composition of fragrances with a mossy-sylvan note as well as a flavouring for tobacco and liqueurs.

Botany

Also known as "catnip", valerian is native to Eurasia, but later became naturalized in America. It is a perennial herbaceous plant that grows primarily in wooded areas. It grows up to one and a half meters tall and has dark leaves, numerous lightly scented purplish-white flowers, and fleshy, highly fragrant superficial roots. It is currently cultivated primarily in Europe, Russia, and China.
