Organic Thyme Oil Vulgaris

The essential Organic Thyme Oil is obtained through steam distillation of the dried, blooming herb of real thyme (Thymus vulgaris). The red color of Organic Thyme Oil comes from natural copper compounds of the phenolic components thymol and carvacrol.

In pharmaceuticals (phytotherapy), it is mainly used for upper respiratory tract conditions, such as in rubs or oil baths. Its anti-infectious effects are primarily attributed to the compounds responsible for its reddish color. Organic Thyme Oil is also said to have pain-relieving and antispasmodic properties, making it useful for muscle tension or injuries.

In cosmetics, the masking effect of Organic Thyme Oil is valued. It helps cover unpleasant odors in perfumes, creams, or shampoos and contributes its own pleasant, herbal-spicy aroma in colognes and soaps. It is also appreciated in oral hygiene products like mouthwash and toothpaste.

The food industry often uses Organic Thyme Oil as a replacement for dried thyme in Mediterranean dishes, such as marinades, dressings, soups, or baked goods—bringing a taste of summer to mind.

In aromatherapy, Organic Thyme Oil is said to calm and energize the mind, helping with sleep issues and fatigue.

Organic Thyme Oil pairs well with Eucalyptus Oil, Lavender Oil, Mandarin Oil, Orange Oil, Peppermint Oil, Rosemary Oil, Sandalwood Oil, Ylang-Ylang Oil, Cinnamon Oil, and Lemon Oil.
