Why Aroma Tierra's Oil

Aroma Tierra brings the finest Argan Oil extracted from carefully handpicked organically grown Moroccan Argan kernels. We use the best quality Argan kernels that nature can offer. Our Argan Oil is 100% pure, natural, organic, cold-pressed, and extra-virgin, with no further refining or processing to ensure that all the nutrients remain intact. Our Argan Oil is golden in color and has a characteristic mild nutty aroma.

Aroma Tierra Argan Oil is ‘Certified Organic’ by ECOCERT, a globally reputed certification body from France, that has a stringent evaluation process. Our production standards guarantee that everything from the beginning to the end is organically made and that the oil is free from chemicals, preservatives, solvents, and hexane.

Our careful cold-pressed extraction method ensures that the delicate nutrients of argan kernels are not destroyed by heat. Further, we do not deodorize, decolorize, or refine our Argan Oil. Refining the oil elongates its shelf life, but comes at a cost of destroying some of its natural nutrients. Similarly, deodorization rids the oil of its nutty aroma, but it compromises the nutritional profile of the oil. Therefore, we emphasize on using the cold-pressed, non-deodorized, and extra-virgin quality to gain the maximum benefits. 

Furthermore, we use specially designed violet-glass bottles to preserve the potency of the oil and elongate its shelf life.

Why Organic?

Today, using the term 'organic' is unregulated in most markets and is often misleading. Products labeled as 'organic' offer no guarantee that they are free from synthetic chemicals or pesticides unless certified by a credible independent body.

Aroma Tierra organic range is 'Certified organic' by ECOCERT, a globally reputed independent certification body from France that follows very stringent organic certification standards. We ensure that everything from beginning to end is organic – farmland is organic for at least 3 years, seeds are organic and non-GMO, farming is done without pesticides and chemical fertilizers, cleaning agents are organic, extraction is organic, and packaging does not contaminate the organic product.

Know More

Argan Oil is well-known as ‘liquid gold’ due to its unparalleled benefits for the face, body, hair, nails, and health. The oil is extracted from the kernels of the Argan tree that is indigenous to Morocco and grows virtually nowhere else in the world! The natives have long used Argan Oil as a culinary ingredient and an essential constituent in their beauty regime. The tree has been there for millions of years, but its forest has been on a decline due to years of misuse and neglect, losing more than ~600 ha of forest every year. To protect the Argan forest, UNESCO declared the area a “Biosphere Reserve”. 

For centuries, Argan Oil was extracted by the native inhabitants of Morocco, the Berber women, in a very traditional way – by cracking the nut and grounding the kernel by hand using a grindstone to extract the oil. It is a very labor-intensive process that takes about ~10-20 hours of intense manual work to produce ~1 L of the oil. With the rise in popularity of Argan Oil across the globe, modern cold-pressing plants have been setup to produce the oil, with the role of Berber women getting reduced to merely being the supplier of Argan nut kernels.

To help the Berber communities and to protect the Argan forest, NGOs have begun the development of Berber women cooperatives. Government and external agencies have helped in getting the Organic certification of the Argan forest and the oil produced. Today, Argan Oil is exclusively and painstakingly extracted by the Berber women’s cooperatives of Morocco, and most of the profits are distributed among the members of the Berber tribe to help them alleviate illiteracy, poverty and improve sanitation and health. Women-operated Argan Oil cooperative model has been instrumental in empowering Berber women socially and economically.

Argan Oil has gone from being a tribal ingredient to one of the most precious oils globally for its immense anti-aging, skincare, and hair care benefits! It moisturizes dry skin, restores and regenerates skin, helps in delaying aging, protects against environmental damage, and strengthens nails. Argan Oil is exceptionally beneficial for hair too – it deeply nourishes the scalp, soothes dry scalp, helps control dandruff, works as a leave-in conditioner, makes hair soft and shiny, and treats damaged hair. In short, Argan Oil is your go-to beauty elixir for the full-body, from head to toe!
