At Starflower Organic Spathecary, nature-seekers can exhale: all of the Sarasota-based company’s essential oils are certified organic, in some cases “wildcrafted”—composed of ingredients gathered from their natural “wild-grown” state—and of food-quality grade. This trio of Starflower’s most popular essential oils—Seven Trees, Magi and Cool Cirtus—comes from the brand’s Synergy line, meaning each contains a mixture of several potent ingredients working in tandem. In the Seven Trees formula, distilled essences of seven tree species—including pine, cypress and eucalyptus—boast detoxifying powers. Take a deep breath of concentrated forest: inhale spicy whiffs of pine, notes of musky mint and dewy evergreen. Frankincense, myrrh and monatomic gold make the Magi potion a focus-increasing aromatherapy tool—although its Yuletide fragrance may give you the urge to buy a Christmas tree in July. Cool Citrus, an energizing blend of lemon, red mandarin, orange blossom and bergamot, fights midsummer lethargy with invigorating intensity.
