What is the difference Marjoram vs Sweet Marjoram essential oil?
Sweet Marjoram and Marjoram essential oil are actually the same! However, there is another type of Marjoram called Spanish Marjoram, which is derived from a different species of the Marjoram herb. Spanish Marjoram has an aroma that is closer to Eucalyptus and Rosemary, while Sweet Marjoram/Marjoram is sharper and brighter. Both Spanish Marjoram and Marjoram essential oil uses are similar, as each oil provides anti-inflammatory and antiseptic benefits.
