Green Myrtle Essential Oil Wild Crafted|Sacred & Comforting

Sacred, comforting, and quietly profound. Valley of the Moon's Green Myrtle is a wildcrafted essential oil steam distilled from the leaves and twigs of Myrtus communis, sourced from Morocco. Sweet, camphor-like, and herbaceous with a fresh, spicy, floral depth reminiscent of Sage and Eucalyptus, Green Myrtle has been a symbol of fidelity, love, and peace for centuries, and a sacred plant of the goddess Aphrodite. Its lingering, comforting scent soothes the spirit, melts disharmony, and reminds us that love is enduring.
