Jasmine Essential Oil Uses

Jasmine (Jasminum grandiflorum, absolute) is a powerful oil. It is rich, floral, sweet, and very heady. It has a lot of strength and should be used in extremely small amounts.

Because of the amount of work it takes to make the oil, it is also very expensive. However, there are options available. You can buy Blend of Jasmine from Rocky Mountain Oils, which is the Jasmine oil mixed in with F.C.O. (Fractionated Coconut Oil). The benefits are the same and it is sold at a more affordable amount. You can also use Ylang Ylang as a substitute.

Combines Well With

Geranium, Rose, Lavender, Orange, Tangerine, Lemon, Lime, Grapefruit, Clary Sage, Sandalwood, Rosewood, Frankincense, Neroli, Melissa, Cypress
