As the summer sun leaves us feeling a little flustered, when could be a better time than now to indulge in the refreshing and invigorating scent of Ravintsara essential oil<\/a>?

In this blog, we\u2019ll be answering some of your top questions on Ravintsara while offering some handy tips on the best way to introduce this gorgeous essential oil to your daily routine!<\/p>\n

Where does Ravintsara essential oil come from?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Young Living\u2019s powerful Ravintsara essential oil originates from the camphor trees of Madagascar, Africa, where it is held in high regard by local people. The trees grow up to 20-30 metres tall and the oil is extracted via steam distillation from the tree\u2019s leaves and twigs.<\/p>\n

What does Ravintsara smell like?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Similar to Eucalyptus essential oil in its scent, Ravintsara promises a fresh, clean aroma with soft, peppery notes. Both energising and refreshing, Ravintsara blends well with other oils such as Rosemary<\/a>, Black Spruce<\/a> and Juniper<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What are the differences between Ravintsara and Ravensara essential oils?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Although we only produce Ravintsara essential oil at Young Living, due to their similar names, Ravintsara and Ravensara essential oils can often be confused for each other. In reality, their fragrances are quite different. While Ravensara is fairly fruity and medicinal in its scent, meaning that it blends well with citrus oils such as Lemon<\/a>, Young Living\u2019s exceptional Ravintsara essential oil is far lighter and more invigorating.<\/p>\n

What are the benefits of Ravintsara essential oil?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Ravintsara essential oil\u2019s main benefit is the way in which its smooth, fresh aroma provides comfort during the changing of the seasons. For days where you may feel in need of an uplift, look to Ravintsara\u2019s invigorating fragrance for a sense of awakening.<\/p>\n

How can I use Ravintsara essential oil in my beauty routine?<\/span><\/h2>\n
