Top 10 Favorite Essential Oils

Posted by Rose Cox 11 Comments

Top 10 Favorite Essential Oils

Not wanting to use favoritism as I do love all essential oils but I was recently asked which essential oils would rate in my top 10 so here they are and a brief explanation why:

  1. Rose for being the epitome of exquisiteness.
  2. Neroli for it’s hauntingly feminine aroma.
  3. Jasmine because it is so delicate and slightly exotic.
  4. Angelica for it’s balancing and revitalizing properties.
  5. Chamomile for it’s gentleness and extremely calming abilities.
  6. Lemongrass for it’s vivid and tangy aroma.
  7. Ylang Ylang for it’s sensuousness.
  8. Lavender because it is so versatile.
  9. Rosemary for it’s amazing ability to clear your head.
  10. Basil for it’s lovely uplifting qualities.

It really is very difficult to narrow down my top 10 essential oils and I could easily list them all for their wonderful, unique properties.

    Hey those are most of my favorites too. I like to make a room spray body mist with Tangerine, Rosewood, and Ylang Ylang.

    Neroli is so wonderful for bedtime.

    Now I can’t wait to get home and use some!

    Love your post! I love essential oils, and have started getting into to using them this past year. I’ve only used a couple for making things like toothpaste, and perfume oil. You’ve listed some of my favorites, especially Neroli, Jasmine, lavender, and lemongrass.

    #31DBBB visiting. Great job on your post – love your site and am definitely subscribing to it! Peace. πŸ˜‰

    I’m visiting from the 31DBBB too.
    I really like palmarosa. Though maybe it’s a blend.
    Good list post!

      Hi Kristin, Palmarosa is not a blend, it’s distilled from a wild grass found in India. Yet another gorgeous essential oil!

    just stopped by to get an idea of all the link/lists out there from SITS πŸ˜‰

    We are going to be making homemade soaps soon and will have to learn a lot of this stuff. My hubby already has a great understanding and we have been making our own deodorant since May with lavendar and its amazing. I’ll be researching for sure with you links, have a great day!
