Hiya Catnip Essential Oil (Nepeta cataria)
Hiya India Catnip Essential Oil is steam-distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of Nepeta cataria, a member of the mint family known for its calming yet slightly citrusy aroma. While famously loved by cats, this essential oil has many uses beyond feline fascination, including potential roles in natural insect repellents, aromatherapy, and wellness blends.
Catnip oil contains a compound called nepetalactone, which is known for its distinctive effects on cats and its insect-deterring properties. It also blends well with citrus, eucalyptus, and herbal oils, making it a versatile addition to natural product formulations.
