Helichrysum essential oil, in 5 ml format, is carefully extracted from helichrysum flowers by our Bosnian producers. This essential oil offers a sweet, floral and slightly herbaceous aroma.
Our Helichrysum essential oil is produced by a Bosnian family business created in 2015 and specialized in the production of high quality essential oils, in particular the essential oil of Balkan immortelle, a true symbol of Herzegovina. The preservation of this indigenous variety is at the origin of the foundation of the project. With continuous investment in human resources and modern cultivation and production processes, the organization guarantees the quality of its products, certified organic and which follow the USDA-NOP standard for environmental protection.
Helichrysum is a plant generally measuring between 30 and 70 centimeters in height.
One of its notable characteristics is its ability to maintain its shape and yellow color even after being harvested, hence its nickname of everlasting. Originally from the Mediterranean basin, this plant grows wild in rocky and sunny regions.
The flowers are usually picked by hand when they are in full bloom to capture their precious essential oils.
In Greek mythology, helichrysum was associated with Helios, the sun god. This plant was believed to be a gift from Helios to protect mortals and grant them long life.
