White Thyme Essential Oil

White Thyme Essential Oil
Thymus vulgaris | Plant | Steam Distilled | Origin: Spain

White Thyme Essential Oil is a refined distillation of Thymus vulgaris, produced by re-distilling the stronger Red Thyme to create a milder, more balanced oil. Although less intense than its red counterpart, it still retains many of thyme’s well known purifying and restorative properties. Its aroma is herbaceous and slightly spicy, offering a stimulating yet comforting presence in aromatherapy.

Historically, thyme has been used for centuries throughout Europe and the Mediterranean for its cleansing, protective, and fortifying benefits. Ancient Egyptians employed it in their embalming rituals, while the Greeks and Romans prized it for courage and purification. White Thyme carries this same legacy forward, offering support for the immune and respiratory systems while gently invigorating the mind.

In aromatherapy, White Thyme is valued for its ability to uplift emotional energy, encourage focus, and provide balance during fatigue or stress. It can be diffused to purify the air, added to massage blends for muscle comfort, or used in cleaning formulas for its naturally antimicrobial nature.
