Aromatherapy and Essential Oil
Natural essential oils are not pharmaceutical medicines, but are more of alternative remedies passed down from a long history of experiences. Due to differences in personal preferences and medical history, sensitivity to aromas may vary, and are thus recommended to experts.
Essential oils are highly concentrated in its extracted form and can be difficult to evaluate their aromas. We recommend diluting approximately 10% (or 1%, depending on the type of oil) for practicing aroma testing.
