Traditional uses in aromatherapy
Although no direct therapeutic or curative properties are attributed to it, the aroma of vanilla has been traditionally used in various cultures to create environments conducive to relaxation and emotional balance.

Vanilla is often associated with sweetness, indulgence, and the creation of a space where one can feel more connected and at peace.
Precautions
This product is a highly concentrated absolute essential oil and should be used with caution. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid direct contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not ingest. Before applying to the skin, perform a patch test on a small area to detect possible sensitivities. This absolute contains an alcoholic extract, which may influence its application and recommendation for very sensitive skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use. Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any medical condition.
Recommended synergies
Vanilla absolute blends beautifully with a wide range of essential oils. Its sweet and balsamic notes harmonize with citrus oils such as sweet orange, bergamot, or tangerine, adding warmth and reducing the perception of acidity. With floral oils like ylang-ylang, jasmine, or rose, vanilla enhances their sweetness and adds depth, creating more sensual blends. It also complements mild spices like cinnamon or cardamom for an even greater sense of warmth, and woody notes like sandalwood or frankincense for an earthy and spiritual balance.

📋 How to use
Instructions for use
Vanilla absolute is a versatile ingredient in creating personalized aromatic blends. Due to its concentration, it is recommended to use it sparingly. It can be diffused in the air using an aromatherapy diffuser to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. It can also be incorporated into massage blends, diluted in carrier oils such as jojoba or sweet almond oil. In natural perfumery, it acts as an exquisite base note, providing longevity and sweetness. For topical applications, it should always be adequately diluted to avoid skin sensitivities. A 1% dilution is usually a good starting point.
🧪 Ingredients
Origin and botany
Vanilla planifolia is a climbing orchid native to Mexico, although today Madagascar is the world's leading producer of vanilla. It grows in humid tropical climates, clinging to trees and producing pods that are harvested by hand. The curing process of these pods is long and laborious, and is fundamental for the development of their distinctive aromatic profile. To obtain the absolute, an extraction method is used that allows for a highly concentrated capture of the volatile and non-volatile components responsible for its very characteristic fragrance. This process differs from steam distillation, resulting in a product of higher density and an aroma truer to the original plant.
