Essential Oils Q-S


Ravensara Essential Oil

Rosalina Essential Oil
Rosalina Essential Oil is native to Australia and belonging to the Myrtaceae family, Rosalina grows in abundance along the eastern and cooler parts of the state along creek and river flats and in swamps. Also found along the coast. Rosalina can exist in dry and waterlogged soils and under low to moderate salinity regimes. I personally would describe the smell as a cross between Cajaput and Rosewood, it has that piercing fresh scent with rosy and ever so slightly woody back notes. Honestly this oil is a total must have for any aromatherapy enthusiast. More Info >>

Sandalwood Mysore Essential Oil
Indian Sandalwood Essential Oil has a calming effect and is wonderful for relieving chest infections. Very useful in masage for treating sore throats. Sandalwood has long had a reputation as an aphrodisiac. It is an intimate perfume, in distinction to most other essential oils, largely because of its very slow rate of evaporation, which means that one has to be quite close to smell it at all (except in the case of its being evaporated in which case it can be quite pervasive).

Spikenard Essential Oil
Spikenard is mentioned on numerous occasions in the bible, this holy oil is also known as, Nard, Musk Root and Jatamansi and is part of the valerian family (valerianacea) and thus is sometimes referred to as ‘False Valerian Root’. Spikenard is a gorgeous rich amber colour, is of thin viscosity and exudes an extremely powerful, masculine aroma. I detect a lovely sticky sweet scent I associate with aged Himalayan Cedarwood or Sugandha Kokila, I get warmth and spiciness reminiscent of smelling a blend of Black Pepper and Ginger and I do get those rather distinctive and somewhat bitter elements I relate to smelling Valerian and Angelica Root.
