Organic Apricot Kernel

Apricot Kernel (Prunus armeniaca), locally known as “Apricot Seed Oil,” is derived from the kernels (seeds) of wild apricot trees naturally growing in the Himalayan region of Nepal at altitudes ranging from 2,400 to 3,500 meters. These wildcrafted trees produce nutrient-rich kernels, abundant in essential fatty acids, vitamins A and E, and antioxidants. Known for their moisturizing, soothing, and rejuvenating properties, apricot kernels are widely used in skincare, haircare, and aromatherapy applications. The oil is obtained through cold-pressing, ensuring the preservation of its delicate nutrients and mild nutty aroma. We source these kernels by supporting biodiversity and local communities. The harvesting season spans from June to September, providing a consistent and eco-friendly supply of this high-quality carrier oil.

Testimonials

Yolanda Cathcart

I have been a long time consumer of Annapurna Aroma essential oils.  I have purchased and loved the quality and integrity of the oils.  I have personally used Lemongrass, French basil, Corn-mint and Blue Chamomile.  On an energetic level the oils provide me with energy, clarity and peace of mind.  The aroma of the oils immediately makes me think of purity.  The oils have always been consistent and never appeared to smell off or oxidized.  As a company, I love the transparency and the ability to communicate easily.  Every question that I ever presented to the company was addressed in a timely manner.  May this company continue to move in a positive direction and may their oils help those that are in need of emotional support and wellbeing.

“I’ve been working with Prasun Satyal for many years now originally buying their beautiful blue chamomile! I’ve purchased many other oils from them over the years because their company is trustworthy and they care about the quality of their oils.”
