This organic essential oil of pistachio lentisque (also named: "Putty tree") from Morocco, is distilled from the leaves of this Mediterranean shrub.
Vascular and venous decongestant, in local application diluted in a vegetable oil, it treats haemorrhoids and varicose veins.
Always diluted in an appropriate oil, it also relieves leg swelling as well as swelling and inflammation of the prostate.
The beautiful women in the harems of the Levant of old time used it as a deodorant and chewed the gum to keep a good breath.
