Chrysopogon zizanioides
Our organically crafted Vetiver Essential Oil is steam distilled from the dense, aromatic roots of wild-grown Vetiveria zizanoides (syn. Chrysopogon zizanioides) grass, thriving in the lush rainforests of India. Commonly known as Ruh Khus, Khus Khus, or Bunchgrass Essential Oil, Vetiver is cherished for its rich, amber-hued body and deep, smoky-sweet, resinous aroma that lingers with a luxurious drydown.
More than just a perfume fixative, Vetiver is a deeply healing oil—an anchor for both the body and mind. Its complex, long-lasting scent makes it a prized base note in perfumery, while its therapeutic properties make it a true staple in holistic wellness.
