Our opinion Myrtle essential oil: red or green? The green one has the strongest "myrtle" personality but is relatively expensive. One of the advantages of red oil is that it is more competitive in this respect. Precautions for use Not recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women or children under 6 years of age.
