Celery Seed Oil  Apium graveolens

Sourced from the celery plant, Celery Seed essential oil is an excellent way to create a relaxing and uplifting aromatic atmosphere. Along with its subtly sweet and warm aroma, Celery Seed essential oil includes chemical components with cleansing and invigorating qualities when used topically. Apply Celery Seed essential oil to the skin, experience it aromatically, or use it to flavor your food.

Description

Why should I add Celery Seed oil to my collection? Celery Seed essential oil is composed of two primary compounds: limonene and beta-selinene. Limonene –the compound which famously imparts the bright aroma and cleansing properties to citrus essential oils—gives Celery Seed many of the same properties. However, beta-selinene is not found in significant concentrations in any other limonene-containing essential oils. Together, both components give Celery Seed essential oil its unique and powerfully energizing aroma, fresh flavor, and gentle soothing properties when applied to the skin—a unique combination among essential oils.
