OVERVIEW & DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Our meticulously crafted Marjoram Essential Oil, also known as Sweet Marjoram Essential Oil, is derived through the delicate process of steam distillation from the lush green aromatic flowers and leaves of the Origanum marjorana herb, cultivated amidst the rustic landscapes of Egypt. Infused with a refreshing herbaceous-green essence, underscored by woody notes and a subtle medicinal nuance, Sweet Marjoram Oil emerges as an exemplary selection for formulations targeting digestive and respiratory wellness.

Originating from the Mediterranean region, Sweet Marjoram is a lush perennial herb characterized by its bushy growth and velvety leaves, widely cultivated across Europe. Its name, ‘joy of the mountains,’ speaks to its refreshing and captivating essence. Belonging to the botanical family Labiatae, alongside notable herbs like Oregano, Rosemary, Sage, and Thyme, Marjoram thrives in arid rocky terrains, sun-drenched mountainsides, and expansive open landscapes typical of the Mediterranean’s temperate climatic zones.

Widely recognized as Knotted Marjoram, Origanum marjorana boasts a rich aromatic profile and is adorned with dense clusters of delicate white, pale mauve, or purple-hued flowers, rendering it a standout ornamental feature in herb gardens. Its versatility extends beyond mere aesthetics, offering practical value as well. Its leaves preserve exceptionally well through drying or freezing for culinary applications, while its flowers lend themselves to creating enduring arrangements or potpourri. Although native to warmer climates where it thrives as a perennial, Knotted Marjoram necessitates a half-hardy annual treatment in colder environments.
