About this product
Open the windows, light a single candle, and let the room fill with something fresh, green and balsamic. Energetically, juniper is said to clean the atmosphere of a room, clearing negativity from rooms or from people much as white sage does, and some use it in meditation for centering.
This oil comes from Hungary. No one currently distills a true berry-only juniper oil, and the name juniper berry properly means juniper that includes the berries, not just the spiny branches. In perfumery it contributes fresh, balsamic notes and modifies woody accords, and in skin care it is said to help balance oily skin and hair.
Details
- Botanical name: Juniperus communis
- Origin: Hungary, berries on the branch
- Blends with: cypress, eucalyptus, lemon, fennel, rosemary, sandalwood, cedarwood, galbanum, lavandin
- Shelf life: about 2 to 3 years after opening
How to use
Diffuse it to clear the air. For a bright morning ritual, mix equal parts peppermint, juniper and rosemary cineole, and put four or five drops on the shower floor; the steam will carry it. Commission E monographs and regulatory guidelines state that juniper may cause kidney damage or irritation, though Robert Tisserand found no evidence for this, nor for the pregnancy and fetal dangers cited. Store in the dark, refrigerated, and decant half-full bottles into smaller, full ones.
