Main Aromatic Composition

Joy's aromatic richness is due to the synergy of a premium selection of essential oils. Each component has been chosen for its olfactory properties and its contribution to the blend's overall emotional profile:

• Bergamot (Citrus aurantium bergamia): Known for its citrusy and slightly floral scent, it provides freshness and an uplifting quality that may help dissipate tension.


• Ylang Ylang (Cananga odorata): With its distinctive and exuberant sweet floral aroma, ylang ylang is valued for its balancing effects and its ability to foster a sense of calm and joy.

• Lemon (Citrus limon): A vibrant citrus that adds an energetic note, with the potential to uplift mood.


• Coriander (Coriandrum sativum): Provides a sweet herbaceous touch that complements the floral and citrus notes, with a comforting effect.


• Tangerine (Citrus reticulata): Another sweet and soft citrus, known for its calming properties and its ability to promote tranquility.


• Jasmine (Jasminum officinale): A highly prized floral oil for its exotic, sweet, and potent aroma, often associated with feelings of love and connection.


• Roman Chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile): With a sweet and fruity aroma, it is recognized for its calming and relaxing properties.


• Palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii): Brings a rosy floral and slightly herbaceous note, known for its harmonizing effects and support for emotional well-being.


• Rose (Rosa damascena): The queen of floral oils, with a deeply sweet and intoxicating aroma associated with love, compassion, and elevated feelings.
