Puressentiel Organic Cistus Essential Oil is a pure essential oil of Cistus ladaniferus, obtained from the leaves and twigs. Its powerful scent is used in perfumery to create chypre and amber fragrances. This shrub of the Mediterranean basin, especially Spain, grows on poor soils. Puressentiel describes it as botanically and biochemically defined, so its plant and its main natural molecules are clearly identified. Puressentiel suggests it diluted, in the bath or in massage and care for the face, hair and body, for external use only. It comes in a 5ml amber glass bottle.

Key Benefits

  • Powerful scent: a rich aroma prized in perfumery.
  • Diluted use: in the bath or in a massage oil, never pure.
  • Defined quality: botanically and biochemically defined, with its key molecules on the label.
  • Organic: certified organic: 100% of the ingredients come from organic farming, COSMOS ORGANIC certified by Ecocert Greenlife.
  • Easy dosing: 1ml equals about 32 drops, says Puressentiel.

Key Ingredients

Cistus Essential Oil comes from Cistus ladaniferus, a plant of the Cistaceae family, and is obtained from the leaves and twigs. Its label names its key molecules: alpha-pinene and ledene (chemotype).
