Melissa essential oil is one of the rarest oils in the dōTERRA range. It is distilled in Bulgaria from the leaves of a perennial garden plant, and its fresh, sweet scent is reminiscent of citrus, with a herbaceous note.
It belongs to the moments when you are looking for calm: a few drops in the diffuser before bedtime for a relaxing atmosphere, or one diluted drop massaged onto the forehead, shoulders or upper chest for a feeling of relaxation. Its aroma also accompanies a massage after a long day. For the skin, one drop in your moisturiser, or in a water spray to mist over the face, gives it a fresh appearance.
A rare oil, measured drop by drop and kept for the evening.
