Very potent and not to be used on sensitive skin. As with all essential oils, they should not be used during pregnancy and never ingested (taken internally) and should be kept away from children and pets.

Very strong oil. I initially tried this oil in a diffuser alone, but it was way too strong. I’ve since been mixing it with other oils: Rose Geranium, Ylang Ylang, Lavender, Peppermint, and Clove all make wonderful companion oils. Also attempted at putting a few drops on a filter for our vacuum, but again it was too strong to use this way.
Anthony Rogers –
Quality essential oil.

This is the only basil EO that I’ve tried, so I have no basis for comparison. That said, this one is fantastic. I love the smell. I added it to a blend for my inhalation necklace and got rid of a sinus infection in 2 days! Get yourself some basil.

Janice hobbs –
I found this oil to have the best value for my money, there was nothing close to it. It’s quality and price is what kept me from looking any further when it comes to essential oils, as I normally purchase different oils of the same kind of different brands.
Catherine taylor –
Great aroma and a little goes a long way! We use this oil to mix in our neem oil for organic pest treatment in our garden. It only takes a small amount at one time. Many insects dislike basil so it really helps keep the bad critters away.
