Essential Oils

iKOU Essential Oils are expertly blended using the highest grade pure essential oils, with Aromatherapy benefits to shift your mood to match the way you want to feel.

As the alchemist behind iKOU, my passion for aromatherapy is infused into all I create...

My intuitive gift for essential oil blending goes beyond just creating blends that smell divine (and they do- people always tell me my blends are the best smelling essential oils they have ever tried!) 

I also love intentionally blending to shift your mood. The blends I make are formulated using the highest grade, pure essential oils and are created to bridge the gap between how you are feeling and how you would like to feel.


I believe in the power of aromatherapy in my own life to de-stress, renew depleted energy, sleep better and generally feel better.I encourage you to collect the full set of iKOU Essential Oils so you can mindfully create your mood each day.


You have the power to transform the way you feel- every day.


Enjoy!

What is an essential oil?

Essential oils are the essence, the molecules that are the life force of the plants. They are the part that give plants their aroma.

What are some examples?
Walk through at the Australian bush and crush a eucalyptus leaf in your hand.
Zest an orange and smell the warm, citrusy oils burst to life through your kitchen. Brush your hand through fields of lavender and inhale.

What you are smelling in all these experiences is the essential oils in the plants!

Are iKOU essential oils pure?

Yes- all our iKOU essential oils are pure and highest quality!

They are 100% derived from the plant, and not diluted in fragrance or base/carrier oils.

Pure essential oils deliver true aromatherapy benefits, for skin & mind.

Where are iKOU essential oils made?

We blend all our essential oils in the Blue Mountains Australia. 

We offset our production with solar and wind power.

We source our essential oils ethically and from many countries, including Australia- always seeking the best quality available to ensure purity.

How do I use essential oils?

The best way is in an iKOU Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser. It uses cold steam technology and generates natural negative-ions to purify the air and make you feel great.

You can also dilute iKOU essential oils into an unscented base oil like almond or jojoba oil to massage onto your skin or pour through your bath.

Are iKOU essential oils safe around pets?

Yes- you can steam diffuse all iKOU oils in your home.
Our oils are pet-friendly to diffuse, but should never be applied to your pets skin.

Are iKOU essential oils pregnancy safe?

All iKOU essential oils are safe to diffuse in the room during pregnancy.

With the exception of Australian Rainforest- they are also all safe when applied to the skin if diluted in a carrier oil first.

Are iKOU oils "certified therapeutic grade"?

There is much confusion in the market place around this term as it is NOT a genuine world-wide standard of assessment to authenticate the quality of essential oils in aromatherapy- rather it is a logo registered trademark brand certification.

There is no such thing as the term therapeutic grade in the essential oil industry. Certificates of analysis if the only guarantee of testing purity of essential oils.

Where can I get iKOU Essential Oils?

We cannot send overseas sorry, but you can buy iKOU Essential Oils online in Australia.

They are also available at many of our brand partners and our iKOU boutiques!
