Connecting to our new producer led to a real inspiration, driving the introduction of this new product. Their belief in this oil is that it can change the landscape of their community.

Dominica as a country has suffered numerous natural disasters – frequent tropical storms and hurricanes – and the essential oil industry is imperative to diversifying and finding new markets. The Bay Tree is a sturdy, climate resistant evergreen of the myrtle family. Despite the damage of the most recent hurricane in 2018, the trees were ready to be harvested in 6 months. As a tree that organically exists on the island in abundance, it does not require herbicides/fertiliser or pesticides. The only water needed is the rainfall.

West Indies Bay Leaf oil possesses a sophisticated spicy scent. It is often described as warm and woodsy and is typically used as a top note by perfumers.
