H'ana Bay Leaf Essential Oil - 1.02 Fl Oz - for Hair, Skin, Diffuser, Aromatherapy, DIY Candle & Soap Making

Original review// I had high hopes for this but I'm sadly disapponted. Doesn't smell like bergamot to me. It has a strong "green" smell to it, like pine mixed with grass (or maybe lemon lysol like other reviewers were stating). There is a teeny hint of bergamot, but that's only when I try to sniff it out. I can guarantee that in a blind-smell test, I'd never identify this as bergamot. It isn't floral/perfume-y enough. Also, I dripped a couple drops on my palm to test it out and 30 minutes later my hand still smells pretty strongly. It now smells like McDonald's restroom soap. Maybe it's a plus that it lasts so long for some people, but I'd never experienced that with bergamot oil before, or most essential oils in fact. It usually fades faster. I'm comparing it to a freshly opened packet of Bigelow Earl Grey. Yeah this is not what I was looking for. I usually use bergamot in teas. I first bought Gurunanda bergamot oil and it was by far the best. Really potent and 100% bergamot smelling. I then purchased another kind off amazon when I couldn't find Gurunanda on the shelf. That one was less potent and a tad too lime-y but acceptable. I admit I have yet to try this one in tea but I don't have high hopes. I'll let you know if it turns out better smelling in tea. Oh I just realized that it reminds me of lemon grass. I have a bottle of it and it smells strikingly similar. And lemon grass oil scent sticks around for a while much like this oil. Weird. // 2nd EDIT: Okay so I tried it in tea. The green scent mellows out in the hot water (evaporates maybe?) and it's kinda okay. Resembles bergamot. Although every time I open the container of tea leaves infused with this oil, I get a strong whiff of lemon lysol. Oh well. Bumped up my rating from 2 stars to 4. FINAL EDIT: 4.8 stars Edit: because there is no way to do a separate review for the rose, I'll add it on as an edit. Very strong and long lasting. Smells like authentic rose (makes me want Turkish delight). For example, I added a drop to a glass of water to test its concentration. I poured that water out and rinsed the glass. It still smelled like rose. So I rinsed again extra thoroughly and filled the glass with drinking water and set it on my bedside table. When I woke up and took a drink in the morning, it still smelled/tasted of rose. So yeah, it doesn't seem to dissipate easily.

Smells good Thankyou aloha

The smell is very nice and lasts a bit longer than expected.

Working great

Very strong scent. A little goes a long way.

This H’ana rose essential oil has a pleasant floral scent for use in a room. I like the aroma better when it has sat out for a while (less like grandma's soap smell). I use this scent as a potpourri to refresh the fragrance of real, dried rose buds in a bowl. Also, I add drops of essential oil to an absorbent coffee filter and place that on a little stand in a discreet place in my living room. Personally I would not use this particular rose essential oil on my body as I don't like how it smells on my skin. I'm still looking for a mystery rose oil to match the one I found in the 1970s that possessed an out-of-this-world superb fragrance.

I love everything but the quality. a strong smell of alcoholic also appears with vanilla scent. I prefer these guys do some post processing like gya does.

Great too be able to get this through Amazon, the prices were far too expensive elsewhere. Definitely worth the price, effective for the purpose I had in mind, it's definitely not imitation and with the other oils involved it's quite effective for everthing you can think about for it's uses. 💯

It's worth buying, it has many uses. I tried it on the skin and without a doubt it is very good: I have sensitive skin and I can't use any oil. Happy with the purchase
