Mild Thyme (linalol)
Wild-Certified Organic Essential Oil, 5 ml
Botanical Name: Thymus vulgaris ct. linalool
Origin: Spain
Part of Plant: Flowering Tops & Leaves
Extraction: Steam Distillation
Description & Scent Profile:
Steam-distilled from the delicate flowering tops of Spanish Thyme, this gentle chemotype (Thymus vulgaris ct. linalool) offers a fresh, herbaceous, and sweet-spicy aroma with a smooth, soothing floral undercurrent. Rich in naturally occurring Linalool and Terpinene-4-ol, Linalool Thyme combines the clarifying, purifying qualities of traditional thyme with an exceptionally gentle, non-irritating nature. Celebrated in botanical skincare for clarifying breakout-prone complexions and in aromatherapy for easing daily mental exhaustion, it provides a deeply comforting, refreshing breath of fresh air for home diffusion, clearing steam inhalations, and household cleaning blends.
Key Botanical, Cosmetic & Mindful Benefits:
Gentle Clarifying & Skin-Balancing Care: Purifies and refreshes blemished or breakout-prone skin without the harsh irritation associated with other thyme chemotypes or Oregano.
Restorative & Mind-Clearing Aromatherapy: Disperses mental fatigue, lifts low spirits, and restores emotional energy during times of physical or mental exhaustion.
Atmospheric Air Purification: Neutralizes lingering household odours and clears stale, heavy room air with a crisp, hygienic herbal fragrance.
Multi-Surface Botanical Booster: Excellent as an aromatic, purifying booster for custom non-toxic household sprays, surface wipes, and room mists.
Best Ways to Experience:
Clearing Steam Inhalation: Place 1 drop into a bowl of steaming hot water. Lean over the bowl with a towel draped over your head, close your eyes, and breathe deeply for 3 minutes for a clear, refreshing sensory reset.
Clarifying Facial Steam or Toner: Add 1 drop of Linalool Thyme to a hot bowl of water for a gentle facial steam, or dilute into your favourite hydrosol to clarify and refine breakout-prone skin.
Restorative Living Space Diffusion: Add 3–5 drops to your ultrasonic diffuser to clear stale room air and create a fresh, uplifting atmosphere during seasonal changes.
Purifying Household Surface Cleaner: Combine 10 drops Linalool Thyme, 10 drops Lemon, 1 tablespoon of liquid Castile soap, and 2 cups of water in a spray bottle for an effective, fresh-scented multi-surface cleaning spray.
Aromatherapist's Tip: Thyme ct. linalool is prized for containing linalool—the same calming constituent found in Lavender. This makes it a far gentler, sweeter, and more comfortable choice than Oregano for skincare, diffusion, and daily aromatic use.
