OVERVIEW & DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Our Thyme Essential Oil undergoes meticulous steam distillation, extracting the essence from the delicate, pale purple flowers and aromatic green leaves of four distinct varieties of thyme herbs cultivated in the sun-kissed fields of the Egypt countryside. Our premium Thyme Essential Oil boasts an exquisite aroma-diffusive, spicy, warm, sweet herbaceous, clean, and gentle, with subtle peppery undertones and a soft, woody-herbaceous drydown.

Thyme thrives as a sun-loving herb, reaching its aromatic peak when flourishing across the sun-drenched countryside. Adorned with delicate pale mauve flowers for two to three summer months, this decorative herb emits a highly fragrant aroma, captivating bees and offering culinary versatility.

Thyme Essential Oil exhibits various chemotypes, reflecting genetic variations arising from differing altitudes, soil compositions, and climatic conditions in which the plants are cultivated. Our Thyme Essential Oil stands out for its unique blend, harnessing the therapeutic benefits of multiple chemotypes while maintaining a safer profile compared to counterparts high in skin-irritating phenolic compounds like Thymol and Carvacrol. This makes it a preferred choice for both general aromatherapeutic purposes and skincare applications.
