Rating:5 of 5 Stars!
Are you sure you only put 3% of the oil in this dilution? I think you put more since the smell is so wonderful and strong and this product is really quite blue in color as well.
Your price is fantastic and it allows me to use this precious oil in my facial care products when in the past I thought I couldn't afford it.
Thanks for this awesome product!
