What is Rosemary Oil?
Rosemary Oil is an essential oil obtained from the leaves of the Rosmarinus officinalis plant through steam distillation. It is characterized by its herbaceous, slightly woody aroma with hints of camphor, which makes it popular in perfumery and aromatherapy applications. The oil is composed of various terpenes, including 1,8-cineole and camphor, contributing to its distinctive scent and properties. This oil is widely appreciated for its potential antioxidant effects, making it beneficial in formulations intended for skin and hair care. Additionally, rosemary oil is recognised for its antimicrobial properties, allowing it to act as a natural preservative in products, enhancing their stability and safety.
