🌾 Vetiver Essential Oil – Deep Earthy Calm for Skin, Perfume & Emotional Balance
Vetiver Essential Oil by Bio Shop™ is steam-distilled from the roots of Vetiveria zizanioides. Known as the “Oil of Tranquility”, it features a deep, smoky-earthy, woody aroma with rich undertones — making it a revered base note and fixative in perfumery, and a hero in grounding aromatherapy blends and men’s skincare.
Its powerful antioxidant and calming properties also make it ideal for mature skin, inflammation, emotional stress, and aftershave care.
