Latin Name: Vetiveria Zizanioides | Plant Part: Roots | Origin: Java, Indonesia | Extraction: Steam Distillation
Deep, earthy, and profoundly grounding — Vetiver is one of aromatherapy's most distinctive and anchoring oils. Steam distilled from the roots of Vetiveria Zizanioides grown in Java, Indonesia, this 100% pure essential oil delivers a rich, smoky, woody-earthy aroma with sweet, resinous undertones that is deeply calming, stabilising, and meditative.
Known as the “oil of tranquillity” in India and Sri Lanka, vetiver has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic practice, perfumery, and traditional medicine — and remains one of the most prized base notes in natural fragrance and one of the most valued oils for grounding, stress relief, and deep relaxation today.
- Deep, rich, smoky-earthy aroma with sweet resinous undertones — profoundly grounding
- One of the finest base notes in natural perfumery — complex, tenacious, and deeply earthy
- Widely used for stress, anxiety, and nervous exhaustion — calming and stabilising
- Valued in meditation and mindfulness practice — promotes stillness and mental clarity
- Pairs beautifully with frankincense, sandalwood, patchouli, lavender, and bergamot
- 100% pure, undiluted — no additives, carriers, or synthetic fragrance
Dilution guidance: Dilute to 1–2% in a carrier oil for topical use (approx. 6–12 drops per 30ml). Vetiver is a thick, viscous oil — gently warm the bottle before use to aid pouring. Not for use neat on skin. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid during pregnancy.
Blending notes: Vetiver adds a deep, smoky earthiness that anchors and extends any blend. Pair with frankincense and sandalwood for a deeply grounding meditation blend, or with bergamot and lavender for a calming, stress-relieving diffuser combination.
Storage: Store in a cool, dark place. Shelf life approximately 4–8 years from opening (root oils are exceptionally long-lasting).
