This is new to my collection of essential oils. I thought it will have identical aroma with Neroli because of its common name but the smell is more similar with tea tree with a gist of fruity smell.
Loving the very Australian, distinct aromas of these oils. It’s a little soon to give testimonials on therapeutic effect, but the service was excellent and my order very well packaged.
