What is geranium?

Pelargonium graveolens, often known as rose geranium or sweet-scented geranium, is a fascinating plant with a rich tapestry of scents, nestled within the leafy embrace of the Geraniaceae family. Native to the sun-drenched landscapes of South Africa, this shrub diverges from the familiar geraniums adorning window boxes across the globe. Instead, it offers something more unique: a bouquet of strong floral scents captured within its incised, velvety leaves. As you brush against these fragrant leaves, they release a captivating aroma reminiscent of roses, enveloping you in a natural perfume that speaks of the wild, beautiful landscapes from which it hails.

Why do we love geraniums so much?

• The scent is sweet and rose-like, it lifts the mood and can relieve anxiety.
• The oil is toning, antiseptic and astringent, which helps clear and mattify the skin while balancing sebum production.
