Aroma
  • A powerful, spicy, and intensely herbaceous aroma.
  • It is sharp and medicinal with a "biting" quality.
  • It opens with a piercing, savory top note that immediately clears the sinuses, followed by a warm, woody-camphorous heart.
  • It smells exactly like a concentrated version of the dried herb—dry, peppery, and slightly smoky.
  • It is an "assertive" scent that lingers and easily dominates any blend it is added to

Common Usage Immune & Respiratory Defense

  • Natural "Antibiotic" Support: Used to help the body fight off stubborn bacterial, viral, and fungal infections.
  • Clearing Deep Congestion: Helps break up thick mucus in the lungs during severe bouts of bronchitis or heavy colds.
  • Air Purifier: When diffused (in very small amounts), it helps sanitize the air in a room where someone is ill to prevent the spread of germs.
  • Sore Throat Support: When highly diluted in a carrier oil from clubarome.com and massaged into the neck and chest, it helps soothe internal inflammation.

Targeted Skin & Foot Care

  • Treating Fungal Infections: Highly effective for athlete’s foot, ringworm, and stubborn nail fungus when diluted properly.
  • Warts and Skin Tags: Often used as a targeted "spot treatment" to help shrink and remove warts (must be applied carefully to avoid healthy surrounding skin).
  • Parasite Defense: Historically used to help treat skin parasites like scabies or lice due to its potent chemical makeup.

Digestive & Physical Vitality

  • Eliminating Digestive Parasites: Used in clinical aromatherapy to help rebalance gut flora and eliminate "bad" bacteria or parasites (under professional guidance).
  • Relieving Muscle Pain: Provides a warming, analgesic effect for deep-seated muscular aches and pains when used in a massage blend.
  • Joint Support: Helps reduce the inflammation and pain associated with chronic conditions like arthritis.

Emotional & Mental Strength

  • Fortifying the Will: Spiritually, Oregano is used to help people let go of "toxic" attachments and find the inner strength to move forward.
  • Clearing Mental Lethargy: Its sharp, spicy scent provides a mental wake-up call for those feeling sluggish or "foggy" during an illness.

Blending note A "scent-stealer." To balance its sharp, savory profile, it should be blended with strong woods, camphors, or bright citruses that can stand up to its heat.

Do you know? The name Oregano comes from the Greek words oros (mountain) and ganos (joy)—meaning "Joy of the Mountains." In ancient Greece, it was a symbol of happiness; if it grew on a grave, it was believed the deceased was at peace

Contraindication
