Why buy Hévéa Bourbon Geranium essential oil?

A quality essential oil should stand out, but it is not always easy to find one. Often we don't know what to look for to distinguish a good essential oil from one that is not so good. The lack of transparency from sellers doesn't help either, and in most cases the lack of product information is related to a lack of quality.

Hévéa wants to show you the key points you need to look at when buying an essential oil like Bourbon Geranium, and why theirs is the best choice:

Add to cart

100% pure essential oil

The first point to consider when buying an essential oil is that it is 100% pure, meaning that it contains no other ingredients such as other oils that reduce its quality or artificial additives. At Hévéa, Bourbon Geranium essential oil is made exclusively from the leaves, which are also organically grown.

Essential oil extracted by steam distillation

To obtain the essential oil from the leaves, Hévéa uses the steam distillation method, which consists of passing steam through the plant material, carrying the volatile compounds (oils), and then condensing the steam into water, separating the oil. Thanks to this process, a highly pure essential oil is obtained without the use of chemical solvents.

Certified organic cultivation

Hévéa essential oil is certified organic, ensuring that no chemical agents such as pesticides or artificial fertilizers have been used during cultivation. Genetically modified organisms have not been used either.

Packaged in a protective bottle

It is essential to store essential oils properly, as volatile components can deteriorate when exposed to sunlight or air. Hévéa packages Bourbon Geranium essential oil in a tinted glass bottle that protects it from ultraviolet light. In addition, its airtight seal prevents air from coming into contact with the essential oil while it is stored, keeping its properties intact as on the first day.

Suitable for food use

There are not many who can offer an essential oil that is suitable for food use. Hévéa offers this organic Bourbon Geranium essential oil so you can try it in your preparations or even in drinks such as infusions. By diluting it beforehand in a vegetable oil, honey or sugar, you can consume this essential oil and enjoy its flavour.
