Shell marjoram is also known as garden marjoram or true marjoram. It is one of the most popular herbs, frequently used in cooking. The flowering plant is distilled to produce an essential oil with a fine, fresh, sweet and slightly medicinal smell.

Instructions for use
Essential oils are powerful natural substances and should therefore be used with care. Even if essential oils have been used since Antiquity, their mode of use and the precautions for use are often poorly understood. Many books deal with essential oils.

To promote calm and relaxation, put 1 to 2 drops of marjoram essential oil in 1 teaspoon of honey or on a neutral tablet, once or twice a day.
For atmospheric diffusion, marjoram essential oil is used in small quantities, combined with others, as it is a rather rare (and therefore rather expensive) oil.

For snoring, put 10 drops of marjoram essential oil in your diffuser and turn it on for 20 minutes just before going to bed. You can also put 2 drops on a handkerchief, to keep next to the pillow.
100% pure and natural oil
An essential oil is made up of chemically defined molecules (about 10,000 listed) that have been secreted by special plant cells. It can consist of from one to several hundred molecules, which helps explain why some essential oils have many properties but different therapeutic effectiveness. To guarantee the properties necessary for effective aromatherapy, it is important that an essential oil is 100% pure and natural (not cut, not deterpenated, not mixed with alcohol or vegetable oils) and preferably organic. This is the case for the essential oils we sell. They are sold in tinted bottles with a dropper cap.
