Fennel (Sweet) Essential Oil

Botanical Name: Foeniculum vulgare

100% Pure therapeutic grade essential oil

Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a biennial or perennial herb with feathery leaves and golden yellow flowers, and is a member of the carrot family. Sweet fennel is indigenous to the Meditteranean region, and is cultivated mainly in Hungary, Germany, France, Bulgaria, Italy and India. The crushed seeds are steam distilled producing an oil that is clear to yellow in color and has a very sweet, anise-like, earthy, peppery scent. Fennel can help ease digestive problems, provide menstrual support and provide therapeutic support as an analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antifungal, antibacterial and more. It blends well with Aniseed, Basil, Black pepper, Geranium, Lavender, Juniper, Grapefruit, Mandarin, Lemongrass, Dill, Rose, Ravensara, Sandalwood, Ylang ylang, and a host of other essential oils. Do not use if you have epilepsy, or cancer. It is non-irritant, relatively not-toxic, and sweet fennel is non-sensitizing.

Essential oils can be used for a wide range of emotional and physical wellness applications. They can be used as single (neat) essential oils or in essential oil blends depending on user experience and desired benefit. Earth’s Own Essentials acquires essential oils from multiple suppliers and uses only 100% Pure Therapeutic and/or Organic essential oils in our blends and neat oils. We consistently search for the best oils at fair market prices.
