All of a sudden, I experienced depression and anxiety in my thirties, which began my search for natural ways to support my mental health. Something simple I could reach for in the middle of everyday life. That search led me to aromatherapy, and eventually to Essence One. 🤍
I learned how powerful the sense of smell can be in shaping our emotions and influencing the brain’s stress response. I also realized how important it is to know exactly what goes into the products we use every day.
So I built Essence One, as a certified aromatherapist, to study the connection between scent, the brain, and stress. We source 100% pure essential oils from native distillers around the world and use GCMS testing to verify purity. Our products are made without synthetic fragrances, dyes, or harsh chemicals, and are thoughtfully formulated for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
But Essence One has always been about more than products. It’s about making wellness feel accessible, natural, and real. It’s about creating small moments of calm for people who need them.
And because mental health support changed my life, giving back is part of our mission. Essence One supports mental health programs for adolescents in the Twin Cities, helping more young people access the care and support they deserve. 🌱
This is why we’re here: to smell good, feel good, and do good. ✨
