Native to the Mediterranean, laurel leaves have long been a symbol of victory in Greek mythology. The leaves of the laurel evergreen tree are freshly picked and then steam distilled to produce Laurel Leaf essential oil. Today, laurel leaves are symbols of eternal glory, special achievement, success and triumph. The oil is known for its bright, spicy, sweet scent. Uplifting to the senses, this aroma may help promote confidence and courage as well as feelings of clarity. Laurel Leaf is also soothing to the skin which makes it an ideal choice for an after workout massage.
