Rosewood aroma is especially pleasing and uplifting. It has a sweet, woodsy aroma with a tea-like note. The oil is found in many spiritual and emotionally uplifting aromatherapy blends, such as our Virya blend, and works well in a diffuser to create a warm and happy atmosphere.

Rosewood essential oil may be useful in skin care blends as well. It has been noted to "create skin elasticity" and is "soothing to the skin". It is further recognized to support elimination of candida from the skin and possibly slow the aging process.

Rosewood can be included in a great many blends to round out the aroma, be they for therapeutic or purely aromatic use. The oil is most often distilled from the wood chips of virgin rainforest trees growing in the Amazon basin. We've decided not to carry the oil because of this destruction until now - this is a renewable source essential oil from the leaves and small branches, still with the brilliant Rosewood aroma. We highly recommend it.
