Helichrysum Italicum Essential Oil – Superior (Wild Organic)

Helichrysum italicum

Warm, herbaceous and softly honeyed, Helichrysum italicum is one of the most treasured oils in natural aromatherapy and botanical skincare. Often known as Immortelle or Everlasting, this remarkable Mediterranean plant produces small golden blossoms that retain their fragrance long after harvesting.

Our Superior Helichrysum italicum is wild-grown and certified organic, harvested in France where the Mediterranean climate produces plants with an especially rich and complex aroma. Steam distilled from the flowering tops of the plant, the oil releases a deep herbal fragrance with warm, honeyed undertones and subtle earthy nuances.

Highly valued in natural perfumery and skincare formulations, Helichrysum italicum is prized for its comforting aroma and its long-standing reputation in traditional botanical practices.

Botanical Background

Helichrysum italicum is a perennial flowering plant native to the Mediterranean region. The plant thrives in dry, rocky soils and produces clusters of bright yellow blossoms that retain their colour even after drying, giving rise to the name “Immortelle” or “Everlasting.”

The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the flowering tops. Because the yield of oil from the plant is very small, Helichrysum italicum remains one of the more precious oils used in aromatherapy and perfumery.
