What is Five Guards Essential Oil?

Five Guards Essential Oil is a modern interpretation of a historical remedy once used by herbalists and apothecaries in Europe. According to folklore, it was created by a group of thieves who wore an aromatic mix of botanicals to protect themselves while looting infected homes. Today, that wisdom lives on in a refined, therapeutic-grade formula created by Natural Riches.

Our Five Guards blend was designed to support your well-being in today’s world—where germs, pollutants, and synthetic chemicals are part of daily life. It offers powerful natural defense through aromatic diffusion, topical application, and surface cleaning.
