Product Story
Featuring fragrant white / pink flowers and small, dark green leaves, the fresh and dry leaves of the berry are used as a spice in both traditional medicine and cuisine.
Representing love and beauty in Greek mythology, myrtle is often referred to with the goddess Aphrodite. Considered sacred during the Persian Empire, myrtle is also one of the main ingredients of the 16th century Europe's favorite skin care tonic "angel water".
In addition to its antiseptic and wound healing properties, Mersin essential oil soothes the skin by reducing redness in acne treatment.
Goya Botanicals Mersin Essential Oil is extracted from myrtle leaves collected from Gökova mountains. The unpressurized steam distillation method ensures that the essential oil is produced in the highest quality. The main components of Goya Botanicals Mersin Essential oil are α-pinene, 1,8-cineol (eucalyptol), and linalool. It has a floral and herbaceous aroma.
