Description
Pemou Essential Oil, also known as siam wood, is a rare and valuable essential oil. It's extracted from the roots and wood of a cypress-like tree that grows in Vietnam and other parts of southeast Asia.
The Vietnamese believe that pemou brings eternal life, so it's not surprising this essential oil has long played a role both in traditional medicine as well as in religious ritual. Pemou Essential Oil has a high content of the sesquiterpenes nerolidol (also found in neroli essential oil) and fokienol.
These compounds belong to a class of chemicals that act as natural plant defensive agents, and they explain the antiseptic and anti-inflammatory benefits of pemou. Pemou Essential Oil is also used in aromatherapy as a sedative and as an antidote to feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Properties: Antiseptic, Rheumatic, Anti-Inflammatory, Aphrodisiac, Sedative, Tonic
Blends with: Agarwood, Black Spruce, Cedarwood, Frankincense, Geranium, Jasmine, Lavender, Ylang Ylang
