Black Pepper Oil  Piper nigrum

Black Pepper essential oil, derived from the common cooking spice, is known for its fruity warmth. Black Pepper essential oil enhances the raw black pepper seeds’ richness to provide a sharp, stimulating aroma and warming sensation to the skin when used topically.

Description

Why should I add Black Pepper oil to my collection? Like other spice essential oils, Black Pepper essential oil can add flavor to any dish while cooking. However, Black Pepper essential oil contains limonene—a powerful surface cleansing property. This makes Black Pepper oil particularly diverse among spice oils, as it offers versatile benefits for both cleaning and aromatic use. Additionally, its aroma is especially warm and invigorating.
