## About
Some evenings ask for a scent that softens the edges of the day. Nerolina is that kind of oil: sweet, faintly floral, calming and quietly uplifting, an Australian leaf that seems to have wandered into a flower garden.It comes from the same tree as our Niaouli, Melaleuca quinquenervia, but from a different chemotype, and the two are as different as night and day. Niaouli is rich in 1,8-cineole; Nerolina holds very little. Instead it is high in linalol, the note you know from Lavender, and in nerolidol, a component also found in Neroli, Jasmine and Lavender. The result is one of the sweetest scented of all Australian leaf oils.DetailsBotanical name: Melaleuca quinquenervia ct. nerolidolPlant part: organically grown leavesMethod: steam distillationOrigin: AustraliaHow to useBlend it with any of the floral oils, or let a few drops round off the more medicinal aromas of other Australian oils.
