Organic Noble Laurel Essential Oil
Are you looking for an essential oil with warm, aromatic-herbaceous notes and an original 1,8-cineole and sabinene profile, derived from the mythological tree of the Mediterranean, for diffusion and cosmetic scalp and skin preparations? Herbes et Traditions Organic Noble Laurel EO (Laurus nobilis) is distilled from the leaves of the laurel tree worn in the wreaths of Roman emperors. Rich in 1,8-cineole (30-50%) and sabinene, its warm, herbaceous, and slightly peppery aromatic profile is highly prized for diffusion and hair care. 5ml. Ecocert organic certified.
Aromatic and cosmetic profile
- Rich in 1,8-cineole (30-50%) and sabinene: an original profile that distinguishes noble laurel from eucalyptus—the same cineole oxide but in a very different biochemical context.
- Warm, peppery aromatic-herbaceous scent: a warm, complex note that is both herbaceous and slightly spicy, evocative of the scrublands and Mediterranean cooking.
- Benchmark hair care: laurel is traditionally used in scalp and hair care (Lebanese laurel oil, Aleppo soap). The EO is used in aromatic hair preparations.
- 5ml: Ecocert organic. Herbes et Traditions.

Hair care: 3 to 5 drops in 20ml of carrier oil (jojoba, castor). Massage into the scalp. Leave on for 30 minutes before shampooing.
Diffusion: 3 to 4 drops. 20-30 minutes. A very pleasant warm aromatic-herbaceous note. Pairs well with rosemary, thyme, or geranium.

FAQ
Is noble laurel EO the same as culinary bay leaf?
Yes, Laurus nobilis is the laurel of bouquet garni and laurel wreaths. The EO is distilled from its leaves. Do not confuse with oleander (Nerium oleander, toxic) or cherry laurel (Prunus lusitanica, non-aromatic).
Is laurel EO an ingredient in Aleppo soap?
Not directly. Aleppo soap contains laurel berry oil (Laurus nobilis, cold-pressed berries), which is different from the EO distilled from the leaves. Both products come from the same tree but from different parts.
Can laurel and rosemary be combined for hair care?
Yes, this is a classic hair care synergy. Laurel (aromatic, scalp-purifying) + rosemary (circulatory stimulant, strengthening) in a castor or jojoba carrier oil for a complete aromatic hair treatment.
