Escentia Valerian Valeriana Officinalis Pure Essential Oil - 10ML

Escentia Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) Pure Essential Oil is a single-ingredient essential oil steam distilled from the roots and stems, or rhizomes, of the valerian plant. It has a rich, earthy, slightly musky aroma and is commonly used in evening aromatherapy, diffuser blends, and diluted body oils where a more grounding, settling scent is wanted.

This is a pure essential oil, not a ready-to-use massage oil or perfume, so it should always be properly diluted before skin use. Its deep, herbaceous character makes it especially suited to calm, end-of-day rituals. Why we love it: Valerian is one of those beautifully distinctive oils that brings instant depth to a blend.

Its earthy, rooted aroma feels especially comforting in quiet evening routines, and it is a lovely option for anyone drawn to more grounding botanical scents.
