Geranium
Highlight: The rosy-green everyday floral that lifts any blend.
Description
Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens) delivers a sweet, rosy, floral aroma with fresh, green undertones - one of aromatherapy's most beloved floral scents, rose-like yet distinctly green. Steam distilled from geranium leaves and flowers, this pure essential oil is a rounded middle note prized for floral diffusion, botanical perfume blending, and DIY facial-care projects. Rosier than Lavender, greener than Rose - the everyday floral that lifts a blend.
