Black Pepper Essential Oil
Black Pepper (Piper nigrum L.) essential oil from India is therapeutic quality essential oil steam distilled from the fruit.
Steam distilled from the crushed berries of the ubiquitous culinary spice. Native to southwest India, this large woody vine with heart shaped leaves and small white flowers is now cultivated in numerous tropical locations, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Madagascar, and parts of China.
The scent of Black Pepper EO is fresh, dry, and spicy. Aromatically, this clear to pale-olive oil blends well with frankincense, sandalwood, and with tiny amounts of lavender, rose and other florals. It can also add a nice aromatic counterpoint to citrus and seed blends, balancing more sweet aromas.
