## About
The lamps come on, the work is put away, and the evening asks you to slow down. Sweet marjoram belongs to that hour: a much-loved oil for relaxation, with a scent that is fresh, almost sweet and gently spicy.It is steam-distilled from the flowers and leaves of Origanum majorana in Egypt. A slightly medicinal hint sits in the opening, and on the dry down beautiful herbaceous, woody undertones shine through. It works as a middle to top note and plays well with a long list of companions, from citrus and mint to resin and wood. It is part of the Be Kind collection: oils gathered by aromatherapist Lola King for Be Kind Botanicals.DetailsBotanical name: Origanum majoranaOrigin: EgyptMethod: Steam-distilled flowers and leavesBlends with: Basil, Bergamot, Black Pepper, Virginia Cedarwood, Roman Chamomile, Clary Sage, Cypress, Frankincense, Geranium, Lavender, Red Mandarin, Orange, Nutmeg, Peppermint, Petitgrain, Sandalwood, Spearmint and VetiverShelf life: about 4 yearsHow to useDiffuse it in the evening, add it to a steam inhalation, or apply it at a safe dilution.
