Native to the Mediterranean, bay leaves have long been a symbol of victory in Greek mythology. The leaves of the perennial bay tree are freshly harvested and then steam distilled to produce bay leaf essential oil. Today, bay leaves are a symbol of eternal glory, exceptional achievement, success and triumph. The oil is known for its invigorating, spicy and sweet scent. Stimulating to the senses, the aroma promotes self-confidence and courage as well as a sense of clarity.
