Thyme Essential Oil
Thyme essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of the thyme plant (Thymus vulgaris), a fragrant herb native to the Mediterranean region that has been cultivated for thousands of years. Historically, thyme was used by ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans in culinary traditions, aromatic preparations, religious ceremonies, and traditional herbal practices. Today, thyme essential oil is used in all-natural soaps, skin care products, household cleaners, and aromatherapy blends, where it is valued for its warm, herbaceous aroma and its longstanding place in botanical traditions.
