This organically crafted Yarrow Essential Oil is steam distilled from the white flowering tops and green leaves of the Achillea millefolium flowers growing wild in the Bulgarian countryside. This essential oil has a sweet, fresh, and green-herbaceous with a woody and somewhat camphoraceous note that becomes sweeter in the drydown.
Achillea millefolium's high chamazulene content gives this essential oil its deep, rich blue color and its renowned ability to nourish and restore a healthy defense system. Chamazulene is a blue-pigmented sesquiterpene that forms during the intense heat of distillation from matricin, a compound found in the raw plant material, particularly the flowers.
