Thyme White Essential Oil
Product Name: Thyme White Essential Oil
Botanic Name: Thymus vulgaris
Botanical Name: Thymus zygis
Extraction Method: Steam Distilled
Description: Influenced greatly by its surroundings, Thymus Zygis will
produce very different oils depending on climate, soil condition and altitude.
Most White Thyme Essential Oil being harvested comes from the zygis species of
Thyme because of it’s more attractive cost and higher percentage of the active
Thymol (45% or greater in superior grades).
Common Uses: White Thyme Essential Oil is believed to have antiseptic
qualities, as well as the ability to cultivate courage. Many aromatherapists
credit White Thyme Oil with having stimulating, uplifting, and reviving
properties. It should also be noted that the active ingredient Thymol may
crystallize in temperatures below 20 degree Celsius. The more Thymol present,
the greater it’s propensity for altering states. We would recommend placing the
bottle in a very hot water bath, changing the water frequently and once it is
back to the liquid state be sure to shake before use.
Aromatic Scent: White Thyme Essential Oil has a spicy, warm, herbaceous
scent. It is very powerful and penetrating, with medicinal and green tones.
