Catnip Essential Oil


While catnip is famed for being a stimulating herb that cats love, as an essential oil it also provides other therapeutic benefits. For example, while catnip induces excitement in a cat, it can paradoxically provide calmness and relaxation in humans when diffused or inhaled.
As a member of the lamiaceae family, catnip (also known as cat mint) has a woody, spicy and earthy undertone and blends well with other oils with similar aromatic profiles such as grapefruit, lavender, lemon, marjoram, peppermint, orange, rosemary, and spearmint.
