Forgiving, a blend of chamomile, sandalwood and myrrh
6 benefits of Forgiving Essential Oil Blend
A fruity-sweet lift
Eriocephalus punctulatus, the chamomile in this blend, brings a fruity-sweet lift, the scent of berries and apples it is known for. It is the brightest of the three oils, and the first thing you notice in the Forgiving blend.
The warm wood
Santalum paniculatum, the sandalwood, is 'iliahi, and it gives the blend a woodsy heartwood, warm, sweet and rich. Its wood is the part of the Forgiving blend that lingers.
The dry resin
Commiphora myrrha, the myrrh, is a dried tree resin, the same resin long carried in incense and anointing rituals. It gives the Forgiving blend a dry, creamy depth that lasts.
How the three settle together
The sandalwood and myrrh sit low and slow, so the Forgiving blend has a long dry-down after the chamomile lift fades. The wood and the resin carry the scent for hours, and little of it flashes off early.
Composed in small numbers
The Forgiving blend is composed in small numbers and the bottles filled by hand, then sent for third-party testing against synthetics and adulteration. We make it the way we make all of our oils.
Named for forgiving guilty perceptions
Named for forgiving guilty perceptions, the Forgiving blend is a ritual oil. We made it for a daily ritual, an oil to sit with rather than a quick spritz.
How to use
Diffuser
In the airAdd 3 to 5 drops to a water diffuser for a medium room, then a drop at a time until the scent is right. Run it for 30 to 60 minutes, then rest the room for the same time with fresh air moving.
On the skin
DilutedDilute the Forgiving blend to 1 to 2 percent before it goes on the skin, which is 6 drops in 15 ml or 12 drops in 30 ml of a carrier oil like jojoba. Patch test a little on the inner forearm and wait a day before wider use. We do not use this blend neat, and it stays out of reach of children.
In the bath
DispersedStir the Forgiving blend into a tablespoon of carrier oil or an unscented bath oil first, then add it once the tub is full. Oil and water do not mix, so the carrier lets the drops spread through the water instead of floating on top. Swirl the water and get in.

Tap a recipe to see the full formula and method.
Method. Add the drops to a diffuser filled with water and run it for 30 to 60 minutes. The frankincense and cedarwood deepen the wood and resin already in the Forgiving blend, so the whole room turns warm and dry.
Method. Mix the drops into the jojoba in a roll-on bottle and roll it between your palms before use. Roll a little onto the wrists or the throat for a ritual, where the warm wood and resin sit close. Keep it capped and out of the light.
Method. Stir the drops into the jojoba, then pour it into a full tub and swirl before you get in. The carrier lets the oil disperse in the water rather than pooling on top, so it reaches the skin, not neat. Rinse the tub after, since oils leave a film.
Compare sizes and pick your value
Every size is the same oil. The larger the bottle, the lower the price per ml.
