Do not confuse it with Origanum vulgare and Origanum compactum, which are origans. Beware of another possible confusion with Marjoram, also called Spanish Thyme, Thymus mastichina: nothing to do with Garden Marjoram. Finally, always test its aroma: a particular chemotype of this species, known as "Thujanol Marjoram", contains too much of this last ingredient and deprives the essential oil of its finesse.

• Not to be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women or young children.
• This oil has a tendency to irritate when used pure, so be sure to dilute it sufficiently for skin use.
• Risk of allergy (limonene, linalool, geraniol): take care not to overdose in mixtures. An elbow test is recommended prior to any skin application (min 48 hours before use).
• Avoid contact with the eyes.
• Keep out of reach of children.
