Immerse yourself in the warm, sunlit aroma of CELESTIAL® Hay Absolute Essential Oil – Sweet Grass. This exquisite absolute captures the essence of freshly harvested hay, evoking the golden fields of late summer with its rich, earthy, and subtly sweet scent. Grown wild in the mountains of France, it is cut and harvested in the months of June and July, then naturally dried in the sun for another month. During this process, the grass becomes fragrant producing the Coumarin, which is the aromatic lactone responsible for the sweet, hay-like aroma.

Derived from carefully selected plant material, this deep and grounding oil is a treasured addition to perfumery, natural fragrance blends, and aromatherapy. Its complex profile layers soft herbal notes with hints of warm coumarin, reminiscent of sun-dried grass and fresh-cut meadows.

Perfect for adding depth and warmth to custom blends, CELESTIAL® Hay Absolute Essential Oil – Sweet Grass harmonises beautifully with floral, woody, and resinous notes. Whether used in personal fragrance creation, meditation rituals, or as a unique natural scent, this luxurious absolute brings an evocative touch of nature’s serenity.

Topical Application Information:

This essential oil is pure and undiluted, so if you wish to use it on your skin it will have to be diluted first. The general guide to using essential oils on your skin is that they should be diluted to a maximum of 3-5% in a carrier oil. 

Essential Oil Safety:

Always dilute essential oils before applying them to your skin as when undiluted they may cause skin irritations. It is always a good idea to do a small patch test somewhere like the back of your hand when using a new essential oil for the first time. 
DO NOT ingest essential oils. It is against the TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) Guidelines to suggest ingestion of essential oils in Australia. This is due to safety concerns around the harm an undiluted and highly concentrated essential oil can do when ingested. There are very few exceptions to this, which include a small number of essential oils allowed to be used in the food manufacturing industry in highly diluted amounts for flavouring and scent (such as Lavender and Peppermint), or when under the care of a qualified Naturopath or Aromatic Medicine Practitioner (holds recognised qualifications, and is a member of a Professional Association granting TGA exemptions).
It is always best to avoid using essential oils on or around your pets. Dogs process most essential oils similar to how humans do, and will usually not be bothered by most essential oils being diffused in a well ventilated space. Many dog shampoos and conditioners also contain essential oils. However we recommend you never leave a dog unsupervised in a room with an essential oil diffuser on. Cats do not tolerate essential oils and small amounts may be harmful, even using a diffuser in the same room may cause toxicity.
