Description
Oregano is one of the most potent and powerful essential oils and has been used for centuries in traditional health practices for its cleansing properties. The primary chemical components of Oregano are carvacol and thymol, both in the phenols group, which possess cleansing properties. Due to its high phenol content, caution should be taken when inhaling or diffusing Oregano; only one to two drops is needed. Additionally, Oregano should be diluted with dōTERRA Fractionated Coconut Oil when applied to the skin. Oregano blends well with Bergamot, Cedarwood, Cinnamon, Clove, Eucalyptus, Frankincense, Ginger, Lavender, Lemon, Rosemary, and Thyme.

- Used as a powerful cleansing and purifying agent.
- Promotes a clean and healthy mouth when used topically.
