What is meant by quintessence?

Quintessence is the refined essence or extract of a substance, or in other words, the scientific optimization of extraction with regards to methods and distillation times in order to obtain and preserve the greatest wealth of active ingredients.

When properly distilled, an essential oil contains 50 to 250 active molecules whereas a synthetic drug for example may contain 2-3 at best. This wealth in active ingredients  gives essential oils their concentration, diversity, extraordinary energy and a potency that is multiplied when they are associated with other oils. 

All of MAISON LAGET’s essential oils are chemotyped, each batch is botanically and biochemically defined  (E.O.B.B.D.) and more importantly - they are distilled long enough to extract all of the active ingredients. 

These demanding standards and requirements are essential to high-quality aromatherapy.

Use and Special Precautions

After reading the special precautions for use, and in the absence of any special precautions to be taken, essential oils may be used as follows:

- Inhalation or diffusion (aromatherapy)

- Topical application (application, friction, massage or after dilution in vegetable oil according to dermocaustic properties)

- Orally (following the prescription of a therapist, usually 2 drops in honey 2 to 3 times a day for short periods only) 

- For bathing (use with a dispersant)

- Other uses ( in cosmetics by adding 1 to 2 drops to care creams, in saunas, for cooking, home and linen freshening or as an insect repellent etc.)

For more detailed information on the uses and virtues of essential oils for well-being and beauty please refer to our aromatherapy reference books. If in doubt, consult a specialist.

Strong antiseptic when diffused in the air.

Our grandmothers used fir buds to calm coughs in bronchopulmonary diseases. This essential oil has similar indications with a much higher level of efficiency.

Balsam Fir is recommended for bronchitis, colds, flu or angina. Its expectorant properties help to fluidify bronchial secretions and its anti-infective properties make it effective against sinusitis and rhinitis.

It is also antispasmodic and helps combat flatulence as well as gastric and abdominal pains.

For the digestive system, it is recommended for treating urinary tract diseases, bladder, and prevents inflammation of the mucous membranes.

Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, balsam fir soothes rheumatic, arthritic and neuralgic pains.

Orally: 1 or 2 drops three times a day in honey, a carrier oil or on a sugar cube left to melt under the tongue for colds, bronchitis, flu or angina.

Topical use: during the cold season apply 2 drops of Balsam fir diluted in 10 drops of carrier oil to the thorax.
