Common Uses: The therapeutic properties of Geranium Bourbon Essential Oil include the being used as an astringent, haemostatic, diuretic, antiseptic, anti-depressant, tonic, antibiotic, anti-spasmodic and as an anti-infectious agent. This uplifting oil has a great all-over balancing effect and this extends to the skin, where it helps to create balance between oily and dry skin. Geranium Bourbon can also be used to relieve feelings of stress and anxiety, promoting a sense of inner peace. The strong smell of this oil is particularly good to ward off mosquitoes and head lice.

History: The Geranium plants originated from South Africa as well as Reunion, Madagascar, Egypt and Morocco and were introduced to European countries such as Italy, Spain and France in the 17th century. There are over 200 species of geranium, some scented and some not.

Cautions: Geranium Oil is non-toxic, non-irritant and generally non-sensitizing. It can cause sensitivity in some people and due to the fact that it balances the hormonal system, it should be avoided during pregnancy.

This is my first time shopping at ND. I love the scent of ND's geranium EO. This is one of my flavour essential oils. All you need is a few drops in the diffuser. ND has the high quality of EO with great price. Fast shipping. Highly recommend to everyone.

i'm really not a fan of this one. i bought it reading all the great reviews and i read that it mixes well with some of the other oils i have. i really dont think i like it it was not what i was expecting. i bought the rose geranium oil as well. that one is a little better. it has more of the floral scent i was looking for.

Perfectly balanced Geranium. Not too floral or perfumey. Has great "green" undertones like a Spanish Lavender and blends really well with that oil and some Rose hydrosol for a refreshing facial toner. Another popular brand available in stores hardly compares to this one.

This fragrance is the perfect balance of floral and green. The word that springs to mind is "fresh". However, it could overpower other aromas in an oil blend so start slow.

This is such a nice essential oil! It smells terrific. When I made my MP soap with a bit of it, everyone was woundering what smelled so nice in the house. Good buy!

This is my first experience with a Geranium and I find it very pleasant. I need to research it a bit more to discover its qualities.

I like geranium E.O. few drops in your body lotion and your cream is also good as for an insect repellent and you will smell good

Absolutely yummy! This seems sweeter and more floral-y (rather than fresh) than the geranium Egyptian.

One of my favorite oils, and this one is outstanding. Geranium inspires calm alertness. I use it when I need to be at 100 percent, mentally and physically. NDA's Geranium Bourbon is excellent.

Lovely! When I read that geranium is often used to replace rose because of a similar scent and cheaper price, I was anxious to get some! This stuff is wonderful- I plan to make some romantic geranium and ylang ylang combos which this will be simply devine in!

I use this essential oil to make my face cream, geranium can make skin firmer and look younger! It is very strong so only 1 to 2 drops is enough for one use (face and neck).

This is a really stimulating floral scent that is known for balancing hormonal imbalances. It is also one of my favorites for perfume making. New Directions is the best quality you will find for ANY EO but I really do love their Geranium in comparassion to others - I just tossed about half a bottle of another brand after opening this from ND!
