BAY LAUREL | Essential Oil

  • $14.00

Pure Laurus nobilis essential oil.

While most are familiar with bay laurel through its widespread culinary use, it also has a history steeped in symbolism. In Roman and Greek antiquity, heroes were adorned with garlands of bay leaves - this association to honour continues on linguistically to this day through the appointment of poet laureates, and baccalaureates. Old folk legends claim that placing a bay leaf in one's shoe attracts protection and prosperity. In aromatherapy bay laurel's bright aroma is used to uplift and move stagnant energy.
