## About this gift

Cypress essential oil is a 50 ml gift for plant lovers and Van Gogh fans, steam distilled from the needles and twigs of the Mediterranean cypress. The trees were made famous by the paintings of Van Gogh, so art lovers are a natural match.

Cupressus sempervirens is the Latin name. The oil comes from the needles and twigs of young branches of the Italian or Mediterranean cypress, extracted by steam distillation. It suits a collector who likes to know exactly what is in the bottle.

Greek mythology calls the cypress a mourning tree, linked with Hades. Its name, sempervirens, means live forever. Egyptians made sarcophagi from the wood, and the Greeks carved statues of their gods with it. Choose cypress and give a myth lover a piece of that story.
