Organic hyssop essential oil is steam distilled from the flowering plant Hyssopus officinalis. This middle note has a woody, fruity, and slightly sweet aroma. It is one of the bitter herbs mentioned in the Old Testament, employed to purify the temples. Romans used hyssop to protect themselves against the plague, and to clean the houses of the sick. Hyssop oil is associated with open hearts and minds. Blends well with sage, grapefruit, lemon, orange, or rosemary.
