How to use
Thyme Essential Oil from Brooklyn Botany has a fresh, herbaceous aroma with earthy spice notes that work well in aromatic and diluted blends.
Diffuse
Add 2–4 drops per 100 mL of water to a diffuser to fill a room with a clean, herbal scent. It pairs nicely with citrus or woodsy oils for balanced aroma blends.
Diluted topical use
For skin or body blends, dilute thyme essential oil in a carrier oil at about 0.5–1% (3–6 drops per 30 mL). Apply the diluted mix during massage or a self-care routine for a herbaceous fragrant feel.
Blend with lotions
Add a small amount of the diluted thyme blend into an unscented lotion or balm before applying to clean skin to carry its herbal note throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Thyme essential oil has a bold, herbal scent with a warm, slightly spicy edge. It’s very recognizable if you’ve ever cooked with fresh thyme, but the essential oil feels deeper and more concentrated. The aroma is green and earthy at first, then warms up as it settles, which gives it a cozy, almost rustic feel. It’s not a soft, background scent — it’s more of a character note that brings a strong herbal personality into a room or blend.
For most people, thyme works best as part of a blend rather than on its own. On its own, the scent can feel quite intense and medicinal, but when you use just a drop or two alongside other oils, it adds a really nice herbal depth. It’s a bit like seasoning in cooking — you don’t want thyme to be the only flavor, but in the right amount, it makes everything else feel more complete and interesting.
Thyme blends beautifully with citrus oils like lemon or sweet orange, which help brighten and soften its herbal sharpness. It also works well with woody oils like cedarwood or cypress if you enjoy more grounded, natural forest-style aromas. For a calmer, more balanced blend, adding lavender can take the edge off thyme and make the overall scent feel smoother and more relaxing.
Yes, thyme can be used in personal care blends, but it’s one of those oils that should always be well diluted because it’s quite potent. In small, diluted amounts, it can add a fresh, herbal note to body oils or massage blends. It’s best to start with a very low concentration and see how your skin feels, especially if you have sensitive skin, because thyme can feel strong if overused.
When diffused, thyme tends to create a clean, grounded, almost “fresh country air” kind of atmosphere. It feels more clarifying and earthy than cozy or floral. Some people love it during the day when they want a space to feel fresh and awake rather than soft and sleepy, especially when it’s paired with lighter citrus notes.
Keep the bottle tightly closed and store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. Thyme’s herbal aroma can fade or change if it’s exposed to light and air too often, so a cabinet or drawer is ideal. Treating it gently helps the scent stay true and vibrant for longer.
