The Plant
The Olea europaea, the olive tree, is one of the oldest trees cultivated by humans. Native to the Mediterranean basin, it can live for hundreds, sometimes thousands of years. As far back as ancient Greece and Rome, olive leaves were valued for their properties.
The leaves contain a rich profile of polyphenols and plant compounds, including oleuropein – the most studied active principle. Our extract preserves this natural profile thanks to traditional cold maceration.
