Flat moon (also known as Thiên Niên Kiện, Ráy Hương) is a well-known indigenous medicinal plant of Vietnam. It grows naturally in humid tropical forests and needs at least 1–2 years to mature and build up its active constituents. The roots are typically harvested and sun-dried for traditional remedies, used for bone and joint issues, numbness in the limbs, and as a general tonic.

The essential oil is steam-distilled from the roots. Its aroma is distinctly herbal—green, warm, earthy, and characteristically medicinal. Thiên Niên Kiện’s scent helps promote relaxation, ease anxiety, and offers antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory benefits that can help relieve musculoskeletal discomfort.

Grown in Vietnam

Vietnam is a Southeast Asian country known for its rich culture, history, and natural beauty. The country is also a leading producer of essential oils, thanks to its diverse plant species and favorable climate. Vietnamese essential oils are highly regarded for their purity and therapeutic properties. Some of the most popular essential oils from Vietnam include agarwood (oud), lemongrass, cinnamon, and basil. These oils are widely used in aromatherapy, cosmetics, and traditional medicine due to their soothing, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial effects.

Blending

In perfumery, Flat moon essential oil brings a uniquely medicinal warmth to Oriental (Amber) and Fougere compositions, adding natural green and earthy nuances. It deepens a blend, lending authenticity and a memorable signature.

Its gentle, slightly spicy warmth also rounds out other notes—especially woods and oakmoss. Rich in sesquiterpenes, it performs as a fixative, helping anchor the composition and extend a fragrance’s longevity.

Aromatherapy

Key constituents include linalool, which imparts a soft floral-woody freshness with a mild spice, supporting relaxation and calm. Terpinen-4-ol shapes the herbaceous, woody, medicinal facet and is known for strong antibacterial and antifungal activity, helping purify the air. Sabinene adds a light peppery, resinous nuance that builds depth while offering antioxidant and antimicrobial support. Finally, α-pinene and β-pinene contribute crisp pine notes associated with anti-inflammatory effects, helping clear the airways and support mental ease.

Thanks to this synergy, Flat moon essential oil is commonly used in aromatherapy to create a sense of ease and balance for both body and mind, and in massage blends aimed at relieving muscle and joint discomfort.

Can essential oils be applied directly to the skin?

Many essential oils need to be diluted before being applied to the skin; otherwise, their high concentration may cause irritation.

Can pregnant women use essential oils?

Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before using essential oils, as they can affect hormones and the impact on the baby during development is not well understood.

What is the difference between natural essential oils and synthetic fragrances?

Scent.vn focuses on direct sales to maintain quality control and therefore does not offer a distributor program for this product line. However, you can purchase essential oils in bulk from Scent.vn and sell them under your own brand.
