Steam-distilled from the upper leaves and flowering tops of the Cannabis sativa plant, Zurma’s Hemp Essential Oil is a highly specialised botanical extraction. It is critical to distinguish this volatile essential oil from cold-pressed hemp seed oil and modern CBD extracts; because heavy cannabinoid molecules (like CBD and THC) cannot pass through the steam distillation process, this oil contains no psychoactive compounds or heavy cannabinoids. Instead, it captures the pure, lightweight volatile terpenes of the plant, delivering a deeply earthy, warm, and distinctly herbaceous aroma with underlying woody and mildly peppery notes.

Within clinical aromatherapy and botanical formulation, Hemp essential oil is highly regarded for its rich concentration of myrcene, alpha-humulene and beta-caryophyllene. It acts as a reliable grounding agent for the nervous system and serves as an effective, functional active in topical formulations designed for muscular relaxation and tension relief.

Skincare Ritual & Well-being Applications: 
The primary volatile constituents of steam-distilled Hemp essential oil, specifically myrcene, alpha-humulene and beta-caryophyllene, are extensively documented in botanical literature for their reliable anti-inflammatory and nervine properties [2]. For targeted physical support, diluting this oil at 2% in a nourishing carrier—such as cold-pressed Hemp Seed Oil or Jojoba Oil Golden — provides an effective, warming application for fatigued muscles, stiff joints, and general physical recovery. For atmospheric use, diffusing 2–3 drops effectively grounds the nervous system and helps mitigate the physiological manifestations of acute stress [3]. Furthermore, its complex, earthy profile functions as a highly tenacious base note in bespoke botanical fragrances, efficiently anchoring lighter citrus and floral top notes.

Steam Distillation

Perfumery Note:
Middle to Base Note

Formulation & Safety Guidelines:

Dermal Limits & Clinical Safety:
Adhering to standard safety guidelines outlined by authoritative clinical texts, a maximum cosmetic dilution of 1% to 3% in a suitable lipid carrier is recommended for topical applications targeting muscular tension or joint support [1].

Storage & Degradation:
To prevent the natural oxidation of its sensitive terpene profile, which can lead to a degraded aroma and acquired skin sensitisation over time, ensure the bottle is kept tightly closed. Store in a cool, dark environment away from direct UV exposure and extreme temperature fluctuations.

Critical Warnings:
For external cosmetic and atmospheric use only. Do not ingest under any circumstances. Do not apply undiluted directly to the skin. While completely free of psychoactive cannabinoids, if you are pregnant, nursing, or managing specific medical conditions, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner prior to regular application.

Zurma Essential Oils - Highest Quality Pure and Natural
At Zurma we go to great lengths to ensure that we only sell the highest quality pure and natural essential oils. We have searched the world for the best essential oils. Our in-house quality control system ensures that this high standard is maintained for all our essential oils. Every essential oil comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer (GCMS) test to confirm that they are genuine and authentic essential oils containing their correct active constituents.

The only exception to this is with the New Zealand small scale essential oil producers we buy direct from e.g., Lavender, Mānuka, Kānuka, Tea Tree etc. This is because we know and trust these growers who distil their own essential oils.

Finally, all essential oils have to undergo our own in-house smell, appearance and feel test and if they are not up to our high standards, we simply send the product back to the supplier. Based on this quality control process we believe that the 100% Pure and Natural essential oils that Zurma supplies to our customers are of the highest quality and are excellent for use in aromatherapy.
