Vetiver Essential Oils
See our range of Vetiver Essential Oils
Vetiver is an earthy-scented oil with sweet undertones that adds depth and a solid base-note to blends. It is often planted because its long complex rootlet network binds soil together and prevents erosion. Keep this image in your mind when you realise that it is a 're-connector'.
- It is a great tonic that supports the circulatory system and its warming quality soothes tired, sore muscles and joints so can be useful before and after sports.
- It 'binds together' skin tissues and firms and strengthens ageing skin.
- It strengthens the immune system and its grounding, calming qualities are useful for 'Vata types' (spacey, nervous, or emotionally exhausted people) as it reconnects us with the warm, comfortable, nourishing earth energy.

In terms of therapeutic value there is unlikely to be a significant difference between the range of vetivers that we offer. But the fragrances are subtly different. According to our noses:
- Vetiver Bourbon has a fragrance that starts off sweeter and lighter, and deepens down to a smoky note. It is sweet and moist with the hint of the remenants one reminds me of the smell of the remnants of a bonfire that has been rained on.
- Vetiver Haiti is dry, strong, and smokey, like smoke from dry wood.
- The Vetiver from India has a gentle fragrance of a burning crop, slightly greener than the Haitian, damper and more plant-like It is smooth and grounding.
