Rosmarinus officinalis

Way before modern time, together with sage, thyme, and lavender, Rosemary was one of the plants each household  tried to keep to ensure the day to day wellbeing of their family.
Rosemary verbenone is an excellent essential oil to detoxify and purify congested skins and body alike. Remarkable to use in blends with other oils for massages and homemade cosmetics, especially in winter or after an overindulging night out.

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is a versatile herb with various chemotypes that can have different chemical compositions and therapeutic properties. 

Two of these chemotypes are Rosemary Cineole and Rosemary Verbenone. 

Both have unique properties and uses in aromatherapy, perfumery, and cosmetic skincare.

Rosemary Cineole:

Rosemary Cineole, also known as Rosemary CT (chemotype) Cineole, has a high content of the constituent 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol), which is known for its expectorant and decongestant properties.

Aromatherapy: 

In aromatherapy, Rosemary Cineole is used for respiratory issues like colds, coughs, bronchitis, and sinus congestion. It also helps improve mental clarity, focus, and memory, making it popular for use in study and work environments.

Perfumery: 

Rosemary Cineole has a fresh, herbaceous, and camphoraceous scent, which makes it a useful ingredient in perfumery for creating invigorating and stimulating fragrances.

Cosmetic Skincare: In cosmetic skincare, Rosemary Cineole can be found in products formulated to help with acne, oily skin, and hair growth stimulation. Its antioxidant properties also make it beneficial for anti-aging formulations.

Rosemary Verbenone:

Rosemary Verbenone, or Rosemary CT Verbenone, is characterized by a high content of the constituent verbenone, which gives it unique therapeutic properties.

Aromatherapy: 

In aromatherapy, Rosemary Verbenone is known for its gentle and restorative properties, making it more suitable for sensitive skin and delicate respiratory conditions. It is used for skin healing, reducing inflammation, and promoting overall skin health. Additionally, it can help with stress relief, emotional balance, and nervous system support.

Perfumery: 

Rosemary Verbenone has a softer, more floral, and herbaceous scent compared to Rosemary Cineole, making it a suitable ingredient for creating soothing and calming fragrances.

Cosmetic Skincare: 

In cosmetic skincare, Rosemary Verbenone is highly regarded for its regenerative and healing properties, making it a popular choice for products targeting skin repair, scars, and stretch marks. It is also useful in formulations for sensitive, dry, or mature skin, and can help to balance sebum production.

While both chemotypes of rosemary have their unique properties and uses, it is essential to consider individual needs and preferences when choosing which one to use. 

It is also crucial to use essential oils safely and consult a qualified aromatherapist or healthcare practitioner for guidance on appropriate use.
