Organic Sweet Fennel Essential Oil
(Foeniculum vulgare v. dulce)
Organic Whole Seeds-Steam Distilled
Known as ‘Nine Herbs Charm’ in English folklore, this essential oil is adored for its exotic aroma; the Fennel Sweet has a woody scent and is a favourite among Aroma therapists.
Our Organic Fennel Sweet essential oil has a mild sweet touch to it, with a mild hint of spicy; its overall bouquet is dry. This essential oil has clarifying and uplifting properties, which are described as ‘restoring’ and ‘invigorating’. It also has a warming effect, which is relaxing during massages.
Blends well with all kinds of Cedarwood and Lavender oil blends.
