What is Oregano Essential Oil?
Oregano Essential Oil is the steam-distilled essential oil of Origanum vulgare, in the Lamiaceae family, a plant native to the Mediterranean. It is drawn from the leaves and flowering tops of the plant. It comes from the same Mediterranean herb used in cooking.
About the oil
Oregano essential oil is distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of Origanum vulgare, Mediterranean oregano. It is dominated by the phenolic compounds carvacrol and thymol, together typically 70 to 90 percent of the oil, which makes it one of the more potent essential oils. High-carvacrol Mediterranean oregano oils are the most sought after.
Oregano is a cornerstone culinary herb of Mediterranean cooking, and the distilled oil is correspondingly sharp and herbaceous.
Aroma and character
The aroma of oregano oil is sharp, herbaceous, and intensely warm.

Safety and handling
Oregano oil is exceptionally potent and its high carvacrol and thymol content makes it a strong skin irritant that can cause burns undiluted. It should be heavily diluted in a carrier oil before any topical use, kept away from the eyes and mucous membranes, and stored out of reach of children and pets. This oil is not intended for internal use.

I go to the Herb Stomp locations on Belmont and Sandy. The staff there have always been knowledgeable, gracious, and welcoming. I particularly like discovering new products that I would not have ordering my purchases from an online vendor. 5/5 would go again.
