PRANAROM Organic Bourbon Geranium Essential Oil, 10 ml

What is Pranarom Organic Bourbon Geranium Essential Oil used for?

Native to South Africa, the Egyptian geranium—also known as rose geranium—is cultivated worldwide, but its biochemical composition is strongly influenced by its location. Growing to a height of 60 cm, it has green, lobed, serrated leaves and pink, red, and white flowers. Of the 500 species of geranium, only a few are used in aromatherapy. It is cultivated in Madagascar, Réunion, Guinea, and Algeria. The sweet, mellow, or stronger scents of certain species explain its widespread use in perfumery and cosmetology.

Pranarôm’s “organic” essential oils are 100% pure and natural chemotyped essential oils derived from organic farming. They are certified organic by Ecocert, an independent, internationally recognized organization.
