Our Rosemary oil has higher levels of Alpha Pinene which is a natural organic component which smells like Turpentine. Research shows “the intense antimicrobial potential of eugenol, b-pinene and a-pinene which were able to inhibit significantly the growth and cell viability of potential infectious endocarditis causing gram-positive bacteria.”*. The Alpha Pinene in Rosemary is a terpenoid which has been found to be effective to repel lice.
