Vetiver essential oil in 5 ml format is extracted from the roots of the Vetiver plant, by our Malagasy and Haitian producers. Its aroma is warm, woody and earthy. Vetiver is an herb with long, narrow leaves and sturdy stems, reaching up to two meters in height. It forms dense clumps of roots. It is grown in many tropical and subtropical regions with hot and humid climates. Harvesting takes place when the plants have reached maturity. The roots are dug up, cleaned and dried. With its deep roots and ability to retain moisture, vetiver is used for soil conservation and erosion prevention. Vetiver hedges are planted along the slopes to stabilize the soil and prevent landslides. _________ Directions for use: One or two drops to flavor culinary preparations.
