Lemon Balm Essential Oil Benefits & Description
Organically crafted, our Melissa Essential Oil—also known as Lemon Balm—is steam-distilled from the fragrant flowers & leaves of the perennial herb Melissa officinalis, grown in the Bulgarian countryside. A powerful, medicinal oil in aromatherapy, Melissa Oil has a bright, lemony, herbaceous scent that brings joy and upliftment. The herb earned its name—Melissa, meaning 'honey bee' in Greek—due to its sweet, fresh, citrus-like aroma that attracts bees.
This sweet-smelling herb features serrated leaves and dainty white and pink flowers, which are steam-distilled to obtain its essential oil. At a meager 0.05%, the yield for Melissa (Lemon Balm) Oil is exceptionally low, making it an expensive oil that's often blended with cheaper oils such as Lemongrass, Citronella, and Litsea Cubeba. No matter what, Melissa Oil is an invaluable part of an aromatherapy arsenal due to its remarkable potency.
