Rosewood essential oil is a calming and steadying oil - a good oil to use during exams or when driving. It's also a popular oil for the relief of stress, a sensual oil to help set the mood and its also used as a natural good deodorant (always dilute before skin application). Useful for all skin types but especially for mature skin. Rosewood is also ideal to use in bath preparations. A few drops added to bath water makes a lovely treat at the end of a hard day. Despite it's gentle nature you should always test on a small area of skin first and always use diluted (as with the majority of essential oils and natural products). When burned or vaporised Rosewood is thought to help stimulate the mind and lift feelings of mental and physical tiredness.
