dōTERRA Tulsi (Holy Basil) Essential Oil - 5ml

Tulsi (Holy Basil) has been used throughout Hindu cultures to promote wellness and spiritual enlightenment. It is traditionally used around the world as part of rituals and protection in many cultures. Unlike its cousin sweet basil, Tulsi has a rich, spicy aroma, reminiscent of freshly cut basil. Its effects are warming, clarifying and uplifting.

Description 

Native to Southeast Asia, this small, green, bushy shrub with lavender-hued flowers is part of the mint family.

Tulsi (Holy Basil) meaning “the incomparable one,” is considered “Queen of the Herbs.” Experimental research suggests that eugenol and beta-caryophyllene, constituents of Tulsi, contribute to its cleansing properties and skin benefits. CPTG^® Tulsi resembles a cross between traditional Basil oil and Clove oil. Reminiscent of freshly cut basil, the warm, sweet aroma creates an engaging atmosphere.
