Product Details

Botanical Name: Gaultheria fragrantissima

Main Constituents:
Methyl salicylate:  > 98%

Plant Part: Leaves

Origin: Nepal

Processing Method: Steam Distillation

Description / Color / Consistency: Distillation during the rainy season results in a thin pinkish oil whereas distillation in early winter gives a reddish oil.

Aromatic Summary / Note / Strength of Aroma: A middle note with a strong aroma, Wintergreen has a characteristic sweet and woody odor with a strong distinct 'medicinal' scent.

Blends With: Ylang-ylang, Peppermint, Marjoram, Lavender, Birch Sweet, and Vanilla.

Product Abstract: Methyl salicylate is the principal constituent of this plant and it proudly takes center stage in the oil's fresh and minty aromatic profile. Wintergreen can be closely compared to other oils such as sweet birch since they are nearly identical in chemical composition. Originating in Nepal, wintergreen has a rich history with indigenous tribes where it has been employed for centuries as a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory. Its minty and sweet fragrance makes it a powerful ingredient in aromatherapy that can be both uplifting and stimulating.

Cautions: Dilute before use; for external use only. May cause skin irritation in some individuals; a skin test is recommended prior to use. Contact with eyes should be avoided.

Storage: It is recommended that oils packaged in metal containers (for safe shipping) be transferred into dark glass containers to maintain freshness and attain maximum shelf life.
