Steam distilled from the leaves of the geranium plant, the aroma of geranium oil is sweet and green, with strong floral notes. Geraniums were brought to England from South Africa in the time of Charles I, and quickly gained popularity. The plants were said to grace the stairways of Victorian homes so the ladies’ long skirts would brush them and release their perfume. Fragrance aside, geranium essential oil has long been touted throughout history as an all-around medicine, noted to treat respiratory complaints, ease sore throats, treat skin conditions and wounds and help with premenstrual syndrome. Today, the aroma of geranium oil is often used to release negative memories, ease tension and bring about feelings of peace and hope.
