Violet Leaf Absolute Oil
Restoring, revitalizing and stabilizing. Violet leaf has a leafy-green, slightly floral aroma, with refreshing cucumber and tea-like hints. In high-class perfumery, when highly diluted, it offers a subtle, floral touch reminiscent of violets. However, note that it's obtained from violet LEAVES, not the flowers.
Marguerite Maury, in her 'Guide to Aromatherapy' (1961), hints at the regenerative powers of Violet Leaf Absolute, suggesting it may help rejuvenate a dry complexion, soften wrinkles, and reduce thread-veins. It's also a choice for soothing acne, dermatitis, and eczema. Beyond its aromatic and skincare qualities, Violet Leaf Absolute is considered supportive during times of grief, providing comfort and boosting morale. It may help anchor emotions and encourage tenacity during the grieving process. Described as stabilising, it's suitable for personalities experiencing mood swings.
Violet Leaf Absolute is also available from Quinessence as a 5% Dilution.
