Key Ingredients

100% Pure Vetiveria zizanoides (Vetiver) root oil

Our ethically harvested Vetiver essential oil originates from Indonesia. It's extracted using steam distillation, where the oil is drawn from the rhizome (root) of the grass, to produce a thick, golden brown oil. Warm the bottle before use to help the oil come out.

Product Details

Smoky, sophisticated and expansive, Vetiver essential oil is known as ‘the oil of tranquillity.’ It has a rich, earthy aroma that’s both grounding and deeply soothing, and a long-lasting scent that makes it a favourite for unwinding after a busy day or settling into meditation. It can also help to ease muscle tension and the physical effects of emotional strain.

Emotionally
Vetiver is naturally calming and grounding. It can help to soothe mental exhaustion and restore emotional balance, making it particularly supportive during times of stress. It can also aid meditation and encourage deep relaxation at bedtime, making it a great alternative to Lavender.

Physically
When used in a massage blend or hot bath, Vetiver can help to relax tense muscles and ease the physical effects of emotional strain. It is also supportive for skin, particularly dry and mature skin, due to its nourishing effect.

Vetiver essential oil is rich and earthy with a warming, smoky aroma.

Aromatically, Vetiver is a base note essential oil, the longest lasting scent in a blend. It blends well with Orange, Frankincense or Rose Absolute.

Vetiver is a tall tropical grass from Indonesia, with long sharp-edged leaves and abundant aromatic roots from which the essential oil is steam distilled. In India and Nepal, vetiver is planted to protect hillsides from erosion during monsoons. The grass's tangled root system holds the soil together and is also the part of the plant that yields Vetiver essential oil. Both the grass and roots are used locally to make fragrant mats, blinds and fans. In Sri Lanka and India, Vetiver is known as the "oil of tranquillity" because of its deeply calming effect.

Reviews

I wear a home

"I wear a home made perfume blend of Tisserands vetiver, sandalwood, rose and patchouli oil daily and often get many compliments from strangers and friends and family members. My absolute favourite oil, A little difficult to work with as it's so thick so I immerse the bottle in warm water for 20 mins before using making it easier to work with."

— Tye R. (5/5)

This isnt oil at

"This isn't oil at all. I've tried warming it in water and its still like a thick tree sap. Can't be used for diffusing or for any other aromatherapy. Contacted Tisserand, they couldn't care less. Very disappointing"

— Orla (1/5)
