Botanical name:Helichrysum italicum var. Serotonin. Aroma:Rather powerful and green at first; very medicinal. It soon transforms into a very soothing, pleasant and subtle aroma, somewhat honey-like. The potency and incredible fragrancing power of this Essential Oil make it a great investment, even though it is one of the pricier oils. If you find it hard to dose the pure oil correctly (it is incredibly strong and intense!), or shy away from the cost, start with Essential Oils blended with Jojoba Oil, classified as"i/J"("in Jojoba").
