A fabulous essential oil for mixing with strong oils as its on the sweet side. For me it's too sweet to use in a diffuser as it is but mixed with oils like bergamot or vetiver it softens the latter oils.I've not had this oil before but I'd certainly buy it as it is a good all rounder and a versatile mix oil. It drips out of the bottle easily but not too fast. The bottle is well sealed with a protective plastic covering and inside a box so there's no chance of spillage. It's a good oil.

I hadn't come across this essential oil before but I do like essential oils and am very interested in aromatherapy and the benefits of using these.Essential oils should not be applied directly to the hair or skin and should be diluted with a carrier oil or lotion.This oil smells a bit like an earthy te tree oil to me.The oil is almost clear and colourless and quite thin compared to some.Like tea tree oil this one is good for congestion and breathing issues related to cold and such.It is also good at stimulating hair growth and scalp health. You can add some to your shampoo or conditionerThis essentialoil is also antibiotic, antispasmodic and anti-depressant.Using it in an oil diffuser will help with depression .This comes in a brown glass bottle which has a stopper. You remove the stopper and pop in the dropper dispenser. Keep this in a cool and dark place to keep the oil from getting spoiled.You get 15ml of this for £9.99 which is a pretty average price. for an essential oil

This arrives in a small printed box measuring approx 3cm x 3cm x 7cm.Inside you get the sealed bottle with 15ml of essential oil & there are instructions on the side of the box which are partially covered by a massive barcode.I have a number of essential oils from Greenwood Essential & all the instructions seem to be exactly the same - it's the product info printed on the product page.This is not an oil I've come across before but I will be using it in the future.It has a scent that I feel is very masculine & also warming with a light minty top to it which is slightly medicinal.I found it was one that men felt very comfortable with as it's not overtly feminine which some oils seem to be & I think it will do well in autumn/winter mixes or maybe even spring while it's still nippy.Equally nice for women who like a light spice or aromas that head towards the more woody scents & definitely not floral.Very glad I tried this because it's a keeper for me.

I must admit, I am a fan of this company. This essential oil is no exception. Kapoor karchari or ginger lily, is an oil is not tried before, but I had heard good things about its properties, so decided to give it a try. The scent is floral, warming and somewhat spicy. It's not too heavy. The oil I used in the bath, as I understood it to be useful for joint pain and circulation issues. Just a few drops to test was all I needed. It was really quite relaxing, and helped my wrist immensely. It also helped my circulation problems, so I was happy with that. In a base oil, I used it to massage my hands and feet, and found it a good experience. Stiffness and pain stayed off for a couple of hours and I slept well. The oil came in a card box with a pipette, which helped when measuring dosage. The price was very reasonable, and I will get this again.
