FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Organically Powerful: Steam distilled from organically grown Thymus vulgaris in Morocco, Thyme Organic Essential Oil is certified organic — free from synthetic pesticides, artificial additives, and GMOs. It’s pure, potent, and planet-friendly.

Fresh and Fearless: Anything but shy, Thyme Organic Essential Oil leads with a strong herbal aroma that’s spicy, woody, and built to stand out in complex blends.

Rooted in Ancient Traditions: In mythology, thyme was tied to the divine. In history, it stood for bravery. From temple smoke to tinctures, this bold little plant has a legacy as strong as its scent — and today, it’s still revered for its cleansing, clarifying spirit.

Borneol Bonus: High in borneol, this oil offers a cooling, camphor-like effect often valued in natural remedies — a refreshing twist that complements the oil’s cleansing properties and gives your blends a lift.

Just a Little Does a Lot: Thanks to its strength, just a small amount of Organic Thyme Oil brings bold benefits to soaps, toners, shampoos, and home cleaners.


DESCRIPTION

Experience the sharp snap of freshly crushed thyme. Thyme Organic Essential Oil unleashes a bold, spicy, and woody aroma that commands attention in blends, bringing warmth and clarity to everything from soaps and toners to diffuser blends and hair masks. Steam distilled from organically grown Thymus vulgaris in Morocco, this organic thyme essential oil carries a rich botanical character and a legacy that spans centuries of traditional use.

Thyme has long been associated with strength, courage, and purification — burned in Greek temples, used in Roman balms, and even tucked into medieval armor. High in thymol, this oil offers a natural cooling effect and is often chosen for cleansing blends, clarifying scalp treatments, and formulations targeting oily or congested skin.

Thyme Organic Essential Oil’s intensity is ideal for adding depth and dimension to complex blends — especially those that need to cut through heavy base notes or lift earthy profiles. It pairs well with Lavender, Tea Tree, Lemon, and Eucalyptus, and is a natural choice for bold, botanical creations.


DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE

    • Spiced Up Soaps: Add 0.5–1% of Thyme Organic Essential Oil to your soap formulations for a spicy, herbal kick. Because thyme is potent, we recommend making a small trial batch first to ensure scent and performance meet your expectations. When using topically, always patch test to ensure skin compatibility.

    • Herbal Refresh for Hair: In shampoos, conditioners, or hair masks, use 0.2–0.6% organic thyme oil to naturally clarify, soothe the scalp, and combat buildup.

    • Scented Serenity: Add 3–5 drops of Thyme Organic Essential Oil to diffuser blends for a refreshing herbal burst that clears the air and uplifts mood. Note: Thyme contains a high amount of thymol, which can irritate mucous membranes, so always dilute well.

    • Foot Care Fix: Add 0.5% or less of Thyme Organic Essential Oil to foot soak blends or foot creams to help refresh tired feet and reduce unwanted odors.

    • Clean Up Thyme: This oil’s herbaceous, spicy scent makes it perfect for green cleaning products. Add 0.5–1% of Thyme Organic Essential Oil to kitchen sprays, bathroom cleaners, or linen refreshers for a fresh, natural cleanse.

    • No Bugs Allowed: Thyme’s bold aroma helps repel pests naturally. Incorporate 0.5–1% of Thyme Organic Essential Oil in bug sprays, closet sachets, or outdoor candles to keep unwanted visitors away.
