Hay Essential Oil captures the sunny, sweet aroma of a summer day in the countryside. Steam-distilled from organic Corsican hay, this enchanting essence exudes warm notes of dried apricot, honeyed amber, and hints of sweet grass. Its pastoral, tranquil fragrance brings peace, comfort, and happiness to perfumes, aromatherapy blends, and colognes.
With its sun-drenched, fruity-green scent, Hay Essential Oil evokes fields of fallen fruits, autumn breezes, and gentle grassy meadows. Its unique aroma is due to coumarin, a naturally occurring compound that creates that unmistakable warm, sweet scent found in sweet clover, bergamot, and cinnamon.
