Palmarosa
It blends beautifully with geranium, emphasizes the scent of Rose in any blend, works well with lavender. Emotionally, it is said to aid in the release of anger and grief. I have occasionally found it useful in a PMS blend. Blends with: Lavender, Lemon, Orange, Patchouli and Sandalwood.
Palo Santo wood
The Palo Santo tree is native to South America and translates to "Holy Wood", aromatically known for being clean and woody. While aging in a dry forest, Palo Santo trees will become more fragrant over time. Their resin can be compared to that of Aloeswood. Also used for purification.
Patchouli, East Indian
East Indian Patchouli is intense with clean dry down aroma. Patchouli is used topically in aromatherapy for dry, chapped, or weathered skin, and is known therapeutically for its regenerative properties. Inhalation of patchouli oil helps to balance and stimulate the pituitary gland, so it often used to help ground and stabilize the emotions. Patchouli is one of the most popular essential oils in the world, used heavily as a perfumery component and worn as a personal scent for its earthy appeal. It is a very rich and long-lasting oil. The aroma can be rather crude when the oil is young and grows more refined with age, as it becomes a valued "vintage oil". The scent of Patchouli will linger longer than most other Essential Oils, and should be used sparingly. Great skin care ingredient and cell rejuvenator. Helps to find peace of mind and is a wonderful aphrodisiac. Also a good masking agent for unpleasant aromas. Due to its remarkable staying power, Patchouli is a great fixative ingredient (a fixative is a substance that binds other compounds, slowing down their evaporation and thereby making their fragrance last longer). It blends well with labdanum, vetiver, sandalwood, cedarwood, oakmoss, geranium, clove bud, lavender, rose, neroli, bergamot, cinnamon bark, myrrh, clary sage, and oriental-type bases.

Patchouli, Premium
Another aged Patchouli. Great for the skin. Sweeter and heavier than a run of the mill Indian Patchouli.
Patchouli, Reserve
Aged at least 5 years and distilled in Cast Iron.

Pennyroyal
Pennyroyal, although in the mint family, it has been known to be insect repellant. We do not recommend it on the skin, ever.
Pepper, Black
Has a warm, fresh, and dry aroma that is also know for stimulating circulation and helps reduce muscle pain.
Peppermint
Of course Indian Peppermint does not compare to the material grown and distilled in the USA. However, for aromatherapy blends and soaps this low cost Indian variety is fine. It blends well with other mints, styrax benzoin, eucalyptus, lavender and rosemary.
Peppermint, premium
This wonderful peppermint, grown and distilled in the midwest, has a very high menthol content: 43-52%. Sweet as candy. The ideal oil for those seeking a peppermint for therapuetic purposes. One of the top three must have oils.
Petitgrain
Emotionally, it's a powerful oil, calming anxiety and panic, acting as an antidepressant. Physically, it tends to be a sedative, which agrees with its relaxing effect on the mind.
Pine Needle
Physically, all Pine oils are antiseptic, anti-fungal and detoxifying For detoxifying, use it in a sauna, It enters the body through inhalation and expels toxins through perspiration. A few drops of pine and either lemon or lemon eucalyptus in a scrub bucket will clean all surfaces, aiding in the elimination of unwanted bacteria and fungi on floors, in the tub, etc. It's a good addition to any cleaning mix. Ah, but what this Pine will do to the emotional atmosphere of the room you have cleaned is amazing!
Plai
Plai is in the ginger family and is distilled from the fresh roots, as opposed to the dried, giving a more pleasant aroma.
Ravensara
This oil is referred to as "the oil that heals" in Madagascar. Another universal oil like Lavender. May be anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-infectious, antiseptic.
Ravintsara
Helpful with respiratory issues and hasanti-bacterial properties
Rose Otto, Damask
The priciest Rose we carry. Distilled in Damascus from grade A rose petals. Sweet, Sweet high note.
Rosemary
If you've ever rubbed a Rosemary plant, this oil has the same aromatic value with a nice warm tone to round out the high menthol content.
Sage, Clary Bulgarian
Its scent is fruity, floral, herbaceous, nutty and heavy. This is a relaxing, warming oil which eases nervous tension. Known as a hormone balancer, it may regulate scanty periods. It's well known for its euphoric action and is an extremely valuable oil for treating nervousness, fear, paranoia and depression.
Sage, Dalmation
This oil blends well with bergamot, eucalyptus, orange, peppermint, and rosemary. Should be used with caution, avoid with people with epilepsy or high blood pressure, do not use in children or the elderly.
Sandalwood, Mysore 1
This is one of our favorite oils in the entire shop. It's hard not to put this oil in every blend. From the Mysore region in India. Great for meditation. Centering, grounding and acts as a emotional balancer. The aroma of this oil has a slightly sweet top note with a fantastic wood tone that keeps going and going.
Sandalwood, Mysore 2
Another Mysore Sandalwood, heavier than Mysore 1. We need no excuses to carry another Sandalwood.
Sandalwood, Mysore 3
Very heady. One drop in a blend has a great staying power.
Sandalwood, Parvati
Not quite as big as its Mysore brother, Parvati Sandalwood has a clean sandalwood aroma through and through, with a soft top note.
