Manuka essential oil
Leptospermum scoparium
Manuka essential oil, extracted from the leaves and branches of Leptospermum scoparium, is native to New Zealand and prized for its earthy, herbaceous and slightly sweet aroma. Its deep, sacred olfactory profile evokes precious essences such as frankincense, myrrh or nard. Its fragrance recalls the island's vast, wild landscapes, creating a harmonious, enveloping atmosphere. Little known to the general public, it stands out for its biochemical richness and its role in certain holistic traditions.
