Melissa Essential Oil by doTERRA – 5ml

In Greek, melissa means “honeybee.” Melissa officinalis—also known as lemon balm—received the name melissa because its sweet, fresh, and citrus-like fragrance was known to attract bees.

Melissa essential oil offers a wide range of benefits and uses. It can flavor teas, ice cream, and even seafood dishes. The aroma of Melissa oil creates a relaxing, comforting space. Diffusing Melissa essential oil at night can cultivate a restful bedtime environment.
