  1. Miranda –

    Great value for such a quality oil. It’s really uplifting aromatically. The smell is complex and enlivening. It is deeply calming, but energising all at the same time.

    • Rachel Wild –

      Thanks Miranda, I really appreciate your feedback. Yes, this really is a superior quality essential oil. I’m really glad you are enjoying it so much. I love the exquisite sophistication of aroma of Basil Essential Oil. It’s profoundly healing too as well as immune boosting. It’s even anti-viral! x
