Therefore, if you wish to take essential oils internally, we strongly recommend consulting with a knowledgeable professional with experience in internal use.
What are the benefits of diffusing Laurel Leaf essential oil?
  • Laurel Leaf, Laurus nobilis, is a powerful and potent essential oil that can effectively allay breathing and respiratory concerns when cold and flu strike. Its a decongestant and expectorant. For the musculoskeletal system, it is an anti-inflammatory and analgesic and pairs well in blends for muscle and joint aches and pains as well as muscle spasms. It is a diuretic, ridding the body of excess fluids and can also bring down a fever. It also can uplift and energize, giving focus and concentration to those who breathe in its aromatics.

Laurel Leaf will uplift the spirit and mind and enhance positivity and confidence.
Is Laurel Leaf essential oil safe for dogs?
  • Animals such as dogs metabolize essential oils very differently than humans. If choosing to use Laurel Leaf essential oil around your dog, it’s important to look out for warning signs such as behavioral differences, such as whining, scratching or acting loopy. Stop using essential oils around your dog if you notice these signs, and don’t use essential oils around small dogs, puppies and pregnant dogs. We don’t recommend applying essential oils to your pup or administering oils orally without consulting a holistic veterinarian. You may diffuse small amounts of oil around your dog, but be sure to do so in a well-ventilated room where your dog can leave if desired.

Intoxicating scent

Just recieved this one and in love with it already. Very comforting & dreamy. Something about it is very enticing. It's earthy and camphorous and slightly peppery with a very subtle citrus underneath. Will be diffusing this one for awhile and trying it in different blends.

A New Favorite!

This is the first time I've seen Laurel Leaf EO offered anywhere (and I looked into a lot of the MLM/Essential Oil companies out there before placing an order), so I was a bit hesitant to order it, having never smelled it before. I'm so glad I ordered it, as I diffuse it nearly every day and absolutely love the scent. Herbal like Rosemary, very similar to Eucalyptus, but the sweetness is what makes it different. I add this to my diffuser with Exhale and Sweet Marjoram, and mix a drop or two with some lotion applied to my feet before bedtime, and within minutes I'm fast asleep. This is one oil I'll be sure to keep on hand at all times!

Like Eucalyptus

This smells like a slightly sweetened eucalyptus. If I smelled Laurel Leaf and Eucalyptus blindfolded, I’m not sure I could tell the difference.
