Vanilla 5% Essential Oil

Vanilla absolute - 5% in Jojoba oil

Botanical Name: Vanilla planifolia/Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil

Plant Part: Seed pods

Origin: Madagascar

Processing Method: Hexane free solvent extraction of cured seed pods

Using a hexane-free solvent extraction method as opposed to a distilling or cold press method is what differentiates an absolute from an essential oil. This vanilla absolute is blended in jojoba oil to make it a more affordable option while still preserving the good qualities of the oil. Vanilla is considered a good aphrodisiac and has sedative and antidepressant properties.
