About this product
Some oils seem to settle a room the moment they are opened. Several writers speak of Fragonia™ bringing peace and inner harmony, and it seems both to release tension and to calm the mind. Robbi Zeck wrote a reflection on it in The Blossoming Heart.
Agonis fragrans grows in several chemotypes, and only one has this oil's particular balance. The producer raised a plantation of that chemotype in Australia and trademarked the name; the oil is steam-distilled from its leaves and young branches. Its chemistry is unusually even: oxides such as cineole, monoterpenes such as alpha-pinene, and monoterpenols such as linalool, in a near 1:1:1 ratio.
Tony Burfield describes a pleasant, fresh cineolic scent with a hint of citrus that grows after a few minutes, a slight spicy cinnamon tonality and sweet balsamic undertones, drying down faint, sweet, soapy and woody. Many find it pleasanter than tea tree or niaouli.
