Our organically crafted Spanish Marjoram Essential Oil, also called Mastic Thyme Essential Oil, is steam distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of the Thymus mastichina herb, cultivated in Spain. With its bright powerful scent, Spanish Marjoram Oil makes a nice addition to topical salves and stimulating diffuser blends.
Native to the Iberian Peninsula of Portugal and Spain, Spanish Marjoram is a wild growing Mediterranean herb, popular with herbalists the world over. Its appearance is actually more similar to Thyme than Marjoram, which is reflected in the plant’s botanical name: Thymus Mastichina.
