What Makes Palmarosa Essential Oil So Effective?
Palmarosa owes its balancing power to geraniol and citronellol, natural components celebrated for their hydrating, calming, and antimicrobial effects (Arunachalam et al., 2018). These compounds help regulate sebum, maintain moisture levels, and relieve feelings of stress or nervous tension.
Beyond its soothing emotional benefits, Palmarosa also purifies indoor air, revitalises dull complexions, and supports the bodyβs natural recovery after fatigue. Long used in perfumery for its delicate rose-like fragrance, it bridges the elegance of floral warmth with the freshness of morning dew, a scent that inspires calm clarity and self-care.
