Vetiver possesses a complex and exotic fragrance that is rich and appealing. Extracted through steam distillation from the sturdy roots of a tall grass, Vetiver is often referred to as the "fragrance of the soil" and "oil of tranquillity". This oil is widely recognised for its calming and grounding benefits. To create Vetiver Touch, doTERRA expertly blends Vetiver essential oil with Fractionated Coconut Oil, designed to be used ahead of rest or as part of a nurturing skincare regimen that conditions and hydrates. Unlike its essential oil counterpart, its aroma is milder, and it comes with a convenient roller for easy application.
Possible skin sensitivity. Keep out of reach of children. If pregnant or under a doctor’s care, consult your physician. Avoid contact with eyes, inner ears and sensitive areas.

A hearty grass that can survive both flooding and drought, Vetiver grows well in Haiti’s weather conditions. Vetiver grass also helps to prevent erosion and provides additional nutrients to soil. Haiti exports about half of the world’s Vetiver essential oil.
Vetiver is a member of the grass family. Its root system can grow 2 to 4 m down, making it ideal for preventing erosion. The roots grow vertically rather than horizontally unlike most other grass roots.
The essential oil is distilled from these roots. The longer that vetiver roots have been in the ground, the higher the quality of essential oil. This is why our farmers are paid a premium to leave the roots in the ground longer. Ideally, vetiver should be harvested about 12 to 18 months after planting.
