Hyssop Essential Oil (Hyssopus officinalis L.) is a concentrated natural aromatic product with a warm, sweet, herbaceous and slightly camphor-like scent. Hyssopus officinalis L. is widely used as a commercial and botanical name in professional literature, although Plants of the World Online treats it as a synonym of Dracocephalum officinale, while World Flora Online reports it as an accepted name in the genus Hyssopus.
The oil is obtained by steam distillation of the plant’s leaves and flowers. It is used in professional fragrance, cosmetic, soap and specialised formulations where a distinctive herbal aroma with warm, sweet and fresh notes is desired. In aromatic blends, hyssop oil pairs well with angelica, sage, geranium, lemon balm, citrus and other herbaceous oils.
Scientific sources describe Hyssopus officinalis essential oil as variable in composition, with commonly reported constituents including pinocamphone, isopinocamphone, β-pinene, myrcene, β-phellandrene, 1,8-cineole, limonene, camphene and thujone.
