Specially crafted using plant-based and pure ingredients, Young Living’s exceptional Thieves® essential oil is well regarded across the globe for its incredible versatility. Inspired by the legend of four 15th century French thieves, Thieves is a powerful combination of Lemon, Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Rosemary essential oils, and offers a warm and spicy scent that can be enjoyed in every room of your home. In this blog, we’ll be answering some of your top questions on Thieves, both on the history and formulation of the oil itself, and on the ways in which our range of Thieves-infused products can be used!

What is the story behind Thieves essential oil?

Young Living’s proprietary Thieves essential oil blend was inspired by the legend of four 15th-century French thieves who formulated and wore a special aromatic combination of botanicals that they believed provided protection while they were stealing from both the living and the dead. When they were eventually arrested, the French authorities recognised that there was such value in this mixture that the thieves received a more merciful punishment on the condition that they revealed the ingredients in their secret formula. And so, a modern-day must-have was created from a legendary fable.

What is Thieves essential oil and how can it be used?

Featuring a powerful combination of Lemon, Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Rosemary essential oils, Thieves is a warm and spicy-scented essential oil blend. Not only can it be purchased as a stand-alone essential oil, but it is a key ingredient in many of Young Living’s home cleaning and personal care products, all of which replace harsh chemical smells with naturally derived and plant-based ingredients for a superior cleaning power. When using Thieves essential oil alone, it can be applied to your pulse points or neckline for a spicy aroma, and when opting for one of our Thieves-infused cleaning products, you’re sure to find handy uses in every room of your home.

Do Young Living offer a Thieves+® essential oil?

In addition to Young Living’s many Thieves products, we also offer a Thieves®+ culinary oil, which can be added to your favourite dishes for an extra flavour sensation. Distinct, powerful, and spicy, we suggest adding Thieves®+ to your spice rack and combining it with a daily NingXia Red® shot for a delicious beverage that packs a punch of goodness.
