Moldavian Dragonhead essential oil is a rare and precious oil steam-distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of Dracocephalum moldavica. Similar to Melissa (Lemon Balm), this Bulgarian-sourced oil offers a sweet, lemony aroma that creates an uplifting atmosphere while helping to ease tension and promote emotional well-being.
This multipurpose oil supports the body's natural response to stress and helps create a sense of calm. Moldavian Dragonhead has been traditionally valued for its digestive support properties and ability to promote a positive mindset. Its thin consistency blends beautifully with citrus and floral oils for creating personalized aromatherapy experiences.
