Our Organic Melissa Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaves of Melissa officinalis, an aromatic herb that is native to Europe. The yield for Melissa Essential Oil is extremely low, making 100% pure Organic Melissa Essential Oil difficult to acquire. As with all of our organic ingredients, it is certified organic by CCOF.
Aromatically, our Organic Melissa Essential Oil has a bright, lemony, herbaceous aroma that most individuals find very pleasant and uplifting.
Within skin care applications, Melissa Essential Oil is best suited for oily skin.

We welcome and encourage you to research and learn about this very important essential oil.

"I am a beginner soap-maker, and also interested in lotion-making; and have spent countless hours online looking at different suppliers. Being "new to the scene" it was overwhelming to do so much searching. But when I found your Web site, I was able to find everything I was looking for easily, and was impressed at your prices and the fact that you also have products available in small amounts. I received my order quickly, and it was so carefully packed. Also, I was very impressed with your print catalog - so much great information all in one place. So, I just wanted to say Thank You!"- Chris Taher | Grand Rapids, MI
