DESCRIPTION

The word 'pepper' finds its origin in the Latin term "piper," which, in turn, traces back to the Sanskrit word "pippali." A spice of immense value, pepper was highly sought after by ancient civilizations. Embraced by the Greeks and Romans for its rich flavor, it held such prominence that the Turks imposed a tax on its trade. During the Middle Ages, conflicts arose as the Dutch, French, and Portuguese vied for control of this precious commodity.

Today, Pepper Black Essential Oil's distinctive peppery, musky aroma makes it a staple ingredient in skin care, cosmetic, and perfumery. Synonymous with sophistication, this spice oil adds depth to an array of formulations.
