Full description
Overview of doTERRA Spikenard
Derived from the Nardostachys jatamansi plant, doTERRA Spikenard is a precious oil that has been revered for centuries. Sourced from the high-altitude landscapes of the Himalayas, this botanical treasure is obtained through steam distillation of the plant's roots. The result is a robust, complex essential oil that serves as a staple for those looking to create a grounding and meditative environment. Its rich heritage and unique aromatic profile make it an essential addition to any collection for those who appreciate natural, plant-derived products.

Aroma Profile
Spikenard features a deep, woody, and earthy fragrance. It carries balsamic undertones that evoke a sense of grounding and stability. Often described as musky and persistent, it frequently acts as a base note in personal fragrance blends, providing a long-lasting anchor for lighter, floral, or citrus top notes.
How to Use
To enjoy the aroma of doTERRA Spikenard, place three to four drops in a diffuser of your choice to fill your space with a rich, woody scent. For topical application, always dilute with a carrier oil, such as doTERRA Fractionated Coconut Oil, to minimize the risk of skin sensitivity. Apply the diluted mixture to pulse points or the soles of the feet.
