Features & Benefits

Traditionally used to calm the mind and body

Rich, spicy odor

Tones, tightens, and rejuvenates the skin

The calamus root was historically used by ancient Chinese, Egyptian, Greek, and Native American herbalists, and continues to be used today as  a part of Ayurvedic practices for its spiritual and symbolic significance, as well as for its reported effectiveness as an aphrodisiac. It's not commonly used in aromatherapy, but it's incredibly effective when diluted in a carrier oil and applied topically. Though its potent woodsy, musky, spicy odor is beloved by many of the root's fans, those new to the smell may find it improved by the addition of cinnamon and sweet orange oil.

What Our Customers Think

"I love my calamus essential oil for study time. I use it in my defuser for concentration and focus. amazing." - Myra 06/14/22
"strong scent and came super fast! thank you! will definitely be ordering again!" - Leonardo 03/12/22

Can't complain.

Not a bad product by any means, it was fine and works well. The scent could have been a little stronger in my opinion.
