OVERVIEW & DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Our Cilantro Essential Oil, alternatively known as Coriander Leaf Essential Oil, undergoes meticulous steam distillation from the verdant leaves of the Coriandrum sativum herb, commonly recognized as Cilantro or Chinese Parsley, flourishing in the scenic fields of the Egypt countryside. This essential oil boasts an exquisitely beautiful aroma, characterized by its refreshing, subtly pungent-green fragrance reminiscent of freshly cut grass, complemented by herbaceous undertones.

Another aromatic oil derived from the seeds of the same plant is recognized as Coriander Seed Essential Oil. Globally, they are esteemed as two of the most distinctive culinary flavors and signature aromatics in international cuisine. Although Coriander Seed Oil’s aromatherapeutic benefits are well-documented, Cilantro Oil is relatively new to aromatherapy, yet recent research on its properties shows immense promise.
