Prima Fleur CO2 Extract: CARDAMOM

Cardamom oil is one of the oldest essential oils known. It was used by the Egyptians in perfumes and incense and its warming properties make it useful for massage. Our Cardamom Essential Oil [Prima Fleur No. 516], Elettaria cardamom, is from Guatemala, and is deliciously spicy, fruity, warm with a balsamic odor. It is a clear CO2 oil from the seed of the cardamom, and is a perfect intensity for blends and spicy perfumes ~ the scent thought to be an aphrodisiac.

Medicinally, cardamom has been used to improve digestion and relieve flatulence. It is widely used in Ayurvedic medicine to treat bronchitis, colds, and cough. When used in skin care recipes it is included for its antioxidant, antiseptic and cleansing properties. It is better tolerated on oilier skin types and should be avoided in sensitive or allergic skin.

Prima Fleur Essential Oil: OWYHEE

Steam-distilled in Oregon, our Owyhee Essential Oil, Artemisia ludoviciana, [Prima Fleur No. 321] is clear, colorless, non-viscous. It is full of esters (over 85%) and the scent is strongly fruity, with herbal and spicy back-notes like Roman chamomile. Since it contains more esters than Roman chamomile it makes a great substitute that is very fragrant and much more economical than that imported product.


Owyhee hydrosol is very floral and fruity in scent and can be substituted for the water in any skin care product where it will be very beneficial for skin care and where you might want a soothing anti-inflammatory. It can be used in the bath for soothing the skin, as a soothing facial spray, or as a fragrant mister on bed linens for scent and sleep.

With its high ester content, the oil has powerful uses for skin care and in custom body care products as a relaxing inhalant or in fragrant blends for perfume, or in massage oils. It helps heals inflamed skin, and in aromatherapy can help calm the mind.
