### The Aromatics difference, on this carrier

Our hemp seed oil is certified organic, unrefined, and cold-pressed in Canada, with nothing added and nothing stripped out. It pours light and silky, a beautiful pale green, with a frankly nutty scent that tells you it has not been deodorized or refined into blandness. What makes hemp special among carriers is its fatty-acid balance: it naturally carries the recommended 3:1 ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 essential fatty acids, the proportion that supports healthy skin. Makers reach for it again and again because it sinks in soft rather than greasy and gives a blend real substance, and customers who formulate professionally tell us our hemp sits right up there with our jojoba for quality, the one organic hemp they keep coming back to. It contains no CBD. This is real, certified-organic, unrefined hemp seed oil (*Cannabis sativa*), exactly the kind of honest base a good blend deserves.

### What it feels like

Light and silky, soft rather than greasy, and quick to absorb into the skin. The aroma is distinctly nutty, rich, and a little moist, with faint undertones of the ocean, a true unrefined scent that is part of the oil's character rather than a neutral background. It is honestly a strong, assertive aroma, so in a blend it tends to make itself known. When you want your essential oils to lead the scent, use hemp as a portion of the base rather than the whole, or pair it with a more neutral carrier. Its deep pale-green color carries through into a finished oil or salve, and it pairs naturally with green, herbaceous, and resinous aromatics.
