How does it work?

Marjoram is a perennial herb that comes from the mint family. In some areas of the world, oregano is known as “wild marjoram” and actual marjoram is known as “sweet marjoram.” The leaves are ovular and a gray-green color. It also has tiny, white or pale pink flowers in clusters. The essential oil is steam distilled form the dried leaf.
