Cistus oil
Cistus Oil, also known as Rock Rose Oil, is an aromatic essential oil derived from the resinous leaves and stems of the Cistus ladanifer or Cistus creticus plant through steam distillation. It has a warm, sweet, herbaceous scent with amber and balsamic undertones. This oil is highly valued for its grounding aroma and its historical use in wound healing, skin care, and emotional balancing.
Traditionally used in Mediterranean herbal practices, Cistus Oil is rich in monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes that offer antioxidant, antimicrobial, and skin-regenerating properties. It is widely utilized in natural perfumery, skin care formulations, wellness blends, and spiritual or meditative rituals.
Costus oil
Costus Oil is a rare essential oil derived from the steam-distilled roots of Saussurea costus (also known as Saussurea lappa), a Himalayan herb long valued in traditional systems such as Ayurveda, Unani, and Chinese medicine. The oil has a deep amber to brown color and a rich, earthy, woody, and musky aroma. It is well-known in perfumery as a natural fixative and is widely used in spiritual rituals, incense making, high-end fragrances, and therapeutic blends.
Due to its grounding scent and potential anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and calming properties, Costus Oil is incorporated into personal care, topical formulations, and aromatherapy. It is a powerful aromatic oil that must be used in moderation and diluted due to its strong sensitizing compounds.
