The regenerating properties of vetiver oil makes it helpful in facilitating wound healing as well as reducing the appearance of scars, marks of acne, blemishes and dead skin cells. Apart from that, vetiver essential oil is used also in aromatherapy to help purify the air, as it is said to have anti-microbial properties as well as relieving anxiety, reduce sleeplessness and mental fatigue.

In an animal study that was conducted by researchers back in 2016, it was mentioned that vetiver oil improved alertness and brain function.
