10 ml Bay Leaf Essential Oil
Bay Leaf Essential Oil — 10ml
Bay leaf essential oil — distilled from the leaves of Pimenta racemosa, the West Indian bay tree — has a long history of use in Caribbean and Mediterranean traditions. Not to be confused with the culinary bay laurel, this oil carries a warm, spicy, clove-like aroma with a fresh, slightly medicinal edge. It has been used for centuries as a hair tonic and scalp treatment, and is a traditional ingredient in the famous Bay Rum preparations of the Caribbean, historically used as an aftershave and hair conditioner.
