Helichrysum odoratissimum
An important member of the Helichrysum genus with numerous uses in traditional ethnobotanic medicine, incense, and perfumery. An intriguing fragrance, with camphoraceous-menthol notes and a smoky-leather undertone.
Bottle size: 1/2 ounce (15 ml)
With more than 600 species, common helichrysum grows on every continent. Very few oils can boast such a broad spectrum of effective therapeutic use, promoting a healthy inflammatory response, cell regeneration and systemic antioxidant support.
Helichrysum essential oil is a vital component of cosmetic skin care formulations, and is reputed to support the multiplication of the skin's natural collagen count, contributing to the reduction of wrinkles. Supportive in the healing of wounds (internal and external), bruises, and scar tissue (both recent and established), helichrysum significantly enhances skin health, regeneration and beauty.
Its overall cleansing effect and its ability to support a healthy inflammatory response make helichrysum a great support to the respiratory, immune, and neurological system providing mood uplifting and stress reduction benefits to boot.
One ton of helichrysum flowering tops yields about one kilo of essential oil.
Its name reveals helichrysum's divine nature: derived from the Greek helios, meaning sun, and chrysos, meaning gold, it refers to the golden-yellow color of many of the flowers in this genus.
