Basil Essential Oil – Huge 4 Fl Oz – 100% Pure and Natural – Premium Grade Essential Oil for Diffuser and Aromatherapy, Skin, Massage, Candle and Soap Making Fragrance

This oil is great! It is a spicier type basil, but overall mellow and herby. I use it on scent sticks in my kitchen and bathroom because it blends nicely and basil is supposed to have bug-repellent properties (though not as strong a mint or rosemary). It is so difficult to find basil oil! I had bought some sachet from Amazon on here, but it was $18 for a small pack of three that did not smell nearly as nice as this large bottle of basil oil. I will definitely be buying this again in the future, so it may be a year or two since this bottle is very large for the price and will last a while. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a pleasant herbal scent besides lavender, sage, or mint. It’s mellow and unobtrusive. Love it!

Great scent. Love it! Fast shipping. !!

Very good does what I needed it for. Will buy again

I prefer the Genovese basil scent and this one smells like thai basil. I'm not a huge fan, but it does smell very realistic. As if I were litteraly smelling the actual plant. I'll be buying a sweet lemon essential oil so I can diffuse together.

I'm not big on the smell of this, but what the benefits it has on my candles sold me. The picture makes it look bigger than it is, look at thr ounces not the picture.

Basil has a fresh green, slightly sweet smell. This oil is NOTHING like that. More like some alien dry twig. We use it in the cat box room because it's good for covering up that repellant odor.

It works well if you want to freshen a room n can mix a lot of other oils with it. I like it to add to my cleanse the room group. Good oil, good price, came safely!

I wasn't looking for a high quality basil essential oil (EO). I only want to deter ants by smearing it around a window sill. Actually, I MEANT to get bay leaf EO, but screwed up. That's a different story. LOL I've had good results and DO recommend bay leaf EO for deterring ants. We'll see how this accidental EO order fares against ant scent trails! So yeah, I knew I wasn't getting high quality EO because of the low price for a large amount, and I was okay with that for my intended purpose. What I was surprised by is that it's made from Thai basil, not sweet basil. Thai basil has a more anise, black licorice scent profile. I HATE that smell... That said, maybe the ants do, too? Fingers crossed! To me, this EO smells like anise + patchouli + green herb. It's a weird scent about which you'd never think, "Hey, that's basil!" A little honesty on the label would be nice. There's nothing wrong with Thai basil, but I think in the U.S., most people buying basil EO are expecting the smell of sweet basil, and so the type of basil should be listed in the ingredient list.
