Silver Thistle

Silver thistle is a fragrant, herbaceous plant native to the Mediterranean region. Its distinctive silvery-gray foliage and purple flowers produce a fresh, green, and slightly earthy aroma. The essential oil is extracted through steam distillation and is prized for its calming and grounding properties.

Silver thistle has a calming, grounding effect that can help promote feelings of relaxation and inner peace. Its earthy, herbaceous aroma is well-suited for use in meditation, yoga, or other mindfulness practices. Fragrances featuring silver thistle are also suitable for everyday wear, as the note provides a subtle, natural scent that is not overpowering.

Silver thistle is commonly used as a heart or base note in fragrances. It pairs well with other herbaceous and woody notes, such as lavender, sage, and cedarwood. It is often found in earthy, grounding scents and can add depth and complexity to floral compositions.
