Bio Monoi de Tahiti Oil + Bergamot Mint is a luxurious botanical beauty oil that combines the exotic floral richness of Monoi de Tahiti with the fresh, softly citrusy, herbal elegance of Bergamot Mint.
Monoi de Tahiti is traditionally crafted by infusing fresh Tiaré flowers, botanically known as Gardenia taitensis, in coconut oil. This creates a naturally silky, nourishing oil with a soft tropical floral character, creamy coconut warmth, and a smooth, velvety skin feel.
The addition of Bergamot Mint, Mentha citrata, brings a bright aromatic lift with fresh green leaves, gentle citrus-like notes, soft lavender nuances, and a clean herbal finish. The result is a refined tropical botanical oil that feels both warm and radiant, while remaining fresh and elegant.
This versatile oil is ideal for body oils, hair oils, massage blends, dry-feeling beauty oils, scalp care rituals, botanical perfume oils, balms, tropical spa formulations, and premium anhydrous skincare.
