OVERVIEW & DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Our Dill Weed Essential Oil is extracted through steam distillation from the leaves and stems of the Anethum graveolens herb. Renowned for its profoundly sweet, warm, verdant, and herbaceous scent profile, Dill Weed Oil serves as a carminative agent extensively employed to alleviate digestive disturbances and menstrual discomfort.
Dill Seed Oil is derived from the seeds of the Dill plant, whereas Dill Weed Oil is obtained from its leaves and stems. Dill Seed Oil is distinguished by its caraway-like fragrance due to its elevated Carvone content, contrasting with the robust, fresh, and mildly spicy aroma of Dill Weed Oil. These oils exhibit distinct chemical compositions and find varied applications in herbal remedies.
