Geranium Essential Oil

People appreciate geraniums for their vivid blooms and delightful herbaceous fragrance. Geranium essential oil has a beautiful floral aroma with an underlying hint of mint. Traditionally used to balance the emotions and hormones, stimulate the lymph system, and to help a variety of skin conditions, it is also useful as a natural insect repellent and insecticide.
