Organic Rosemary Essential Oil Rosmarinus Officinalis
Rosemary has long been valued as a sacred plant. It has been used for magic, medicine and on the menus of most early civilisations.
It is burnt to drive away infection, eaten for liver and digestive disorders and inhaled for respiratory and nervous complaints. It is also considered a symbol of love, and the sprigs have been traditionally used in wedding ceremonies. Rosmarinus is Latin for dew (ros) of the sea (marinus).
