Scientific Name:Origanum marjorana
Family:Labiatae or Lamiaceae
Origin: Morocco
Synonyms: Marjorana hortensis, Knotted marjoram, Sweet Marjoram
Essential Oil Properties and Characteristics
Marjoram essential oil is a pale-yellow or pale-amber-coloured, mobile liquid with a warm-spicy, aromatic-campherous and woody odour.
Origin and History
Marjoram is a tender, bushy perennial herb with woolly hairy leaves, growing up to 0.6m high. It is native of the Mediterranean region and is cultivated in France, Tunisia, Morocco, Italy, Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland, Germany and Turkey.
The name origanum is derived from the Greek word oros and ganos meaning splendid or joy, thus 'joy of the mountains' referring to the colour and scent of their flowers and leaves, and the hills they originally came from.
The herb has been used since antiquity for its medicinal and culinary purposes. The Greeks referred to marjoram as the funeral herb. It was planted on graves to bring spiritual peace to the dead.
Method of Extraction
Marjoram essential oil is extracted by steam-distillation from the dried leaves and flowering tops of the well-known culinary herb O. marjorana.
Precautions During Use (Contraindications)
Marjoram essential oil is non-toxic, non-irritating and non-sensitising. Sweet marjoram is contraindicated during pregnancy. While marjoram herb has been classified as an emmenagogue, none of the herbal texts that I reviewed indicated that marjoram was contra-indicated during pregnancy.

Cold-Pressed Oils: How to Protect your Skin with Better Ingredients
It takes precision and patience to create the cold-pressed oils used in skincare products. It’s not a fast process, but it’s one that provides incredible benefits for the skin.
Great product. I have been using this product for years in my daily smoothies and have found it to have great health benefits. They have the best prices that I have found. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AND THIS COMPANY!– BOBBY
Babyyyy!!!!Listen!!! Get this oil!! It arrived today and I was on my way out the door and tried it in my car! IN MY CAR!!! I know my customers will love the body oil I'm getting ready to use this in!!! GET.......THIS.....OIL!!!– LaTausha
I had this shipped to Alabama during a heat wave that much of the country experienced and there wasn’t a single problem in the 2-3 days it took to get here. It was soft but still withstood the heat. Already used about half between cooking and cosmetic use. I’ll order a bigger container next time. Not sure why others are selling a small jar full of this stuff at almost the same price. This is great quality, great shipping time, grass fed, not an over powering beefy smell. Smells like if you cooked a bunch of very high quality fatty burgers but not quite as overwhelming but just as delicious.–Chrimson
I bake a lot and go through avocado oil quickly. I love it for it's neutral taste & high smoke point. *Bonus* I rub any residual oil left in measuring cup into my skin! This is a wonderful oil, was shipped quickly & it is the perfect size for our household!– Vampie Oodles
I'm reordering for the 2nd time. I put this on my dogs dry dog food and they love it. I have a Yorkie that has skin allergies and has lost about 1/2 of his hair. The vet sold me some allergy medicine and it helped somewhat, but I decided to try this oil and after several months my little guy's skin wasn't dry anymore and his hair started growing back. It's soft and shiny and the smell on his skin is gone. It used to be pretty stinky. Also , my bird dog type mutt tore his ACL and the vet was afraid he might need surgery. I believe this has helped him recover.– Jant
