Thieves®
Thieves® essential oil is a powerful combination of Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Rosemary essential oils for an aromatic blend that fills any space with a rich, spicy aroma. Inspired by the legend of four 15th-century French thieves who formulated a special aromatic combination composed of clove, rosemary, and other botanicals.
Thieves is one of Young Living’s most popular product lines.
With the benefits of Thieves oil including cleaning power and an irresistibly spicy scent, Young Living offers it as an essential oil blend and as an important ingredient in a full range of home cleaning and personal care products, from dish soap to toothpaste.
History of Thieves® Essential Oil
Thieves is a proprietary blend developed by Young Living’s founder, Gary Young. Because it is a proprietary blend, that means that every other version of Thieves (outside of Young Living) is a different blend – legally, no one else can create and sell the exact same blend, so every other version will be lacking in some way from the original.
Gary Young was introduced to premium quality essential oils while working at his clinic in Mexico in 1985. Until then, he had only been exposed to perfumes and synthetic oils and had not seen good results with them. It took meeting a woman who had brought her cancer-diagnosed sister to his clinic, for Gary Young to learn about the potential of quality, true essential oils. She supplied him with some research, and he quickly learned that essential oils were far more concentrated and powerful than the herbs and tinctures he had been using. (Source)
About a week later, Gary Young was completely intrigued by essential oils, and he decided to attend a seminar on the chemistry of essential oils and their function and action against infection and immune support at the University of Geneva, Switzerland. After that, it was more conferences in France and a life-long commitment to studying, researching and bringing the best of the essential oil world to the U.S. (Source)
As part of his research, he came across the legend of the Four Thieves, while studying at the Warwick University in London, England in 1991. He reported that he read several different versions of the Thieves legend at the London Library, some from the 15th century and some from the 18th century. (Source)
The Thieves legend is based on the speculation that a group of thieves wore a certain formula of botanicals on their persons in order to stave off being infected by the Plague, while pilfering the belongings of the ill. When brought to judgement, the legend claims that they were forced to give up their formula for a more lenient punishment. (Source)
Variations of the story and variations of the formula were passed down through history; but Gary Young identified four main botanical components across the stories to use as the base for his Thieves blend: clove, cinnamon, rosemary and lemon. (Source)
He added eucalyptus radiata, and Young Living’s Thieves® essential oil blend was created in 1992.
