The name Monoi means \"fragrant oil\" in Tahitian, and the oil has been used by the indigenous Maohi people for skin, hair, and ritual purposes for over 2000 years. Our Monoï is 100% natural and without synthetic perfume, and carries the official Appellation d'Origine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat does Appellation d'Origine mean?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1992, Monoï de Tahiti has been protected by an Appellation d'Origine (AO), a French designation of origin.

This is done at room temperature, without heating, so that the aromatic substances of the flower gently pass into the oil. After 10 to 15 days of maceration, the oil is left to rest for 24 hours and then filtered. A natural antioxidant (tocopherol) can be added to support shelf life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDifference between our 100% and 99% version\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur 100% natural Monoi contains a high concentration of the Tiare Tahiti plant extract and falls under natural cosmetics according to IFRA legislation.
