Marjoram Sweet Essential Oil

Also known as Knotted Marjoram Essential Oil

Our organically crafted Sweet Marjoram Essential Oil is steam distilled from the tender green leaves and aromatic flowers of Origanum marjorana, cultivated in the peaceful rural landscapes of Egypt. With its warm, herbaceous-green, and slightly medicinal scent, this versatile oil is a must-have for calming blends that support both digestion and respiratory health.

Native to the Mediterranean region, Sweet Marjoram is a treasured herb long celebrated for its soothing and harmonizing properties. Its name, meaning “joy of the mountains,” reflects its traditional role in uplifting the spirit and restoring balance. A proud member of the Lamiaceae family—alongside herbal icons like Oregano, Thyme, Rosemary, and Sage—Sweet Marjoram thrives in sunny, rocky climates and brings beauty, fragrance, and therapeutic power in equal measure.

Botanical Beauty & Versatility

Often referred to as Knotted Marjoram, this plant is a garden favorite thanks to its charming clusters of white to soft purple flowers. Not only is it ornamental, but its leaves also hold culinary value, and its blooms can be dried for long-lasting potpourri or arrangements. In warmer climates, it grows as a perennial, but it’s often cultivated as an annual in cooler regions.
