Product Description

Fennel Sweet Essential Oil (known as Roman Garden or French Fennel) has a long history of traditional use. Nowadays, this oil is utilised in formulations for skincare, like moisturisers and skin-conditioning lotions, as well as anti-wrinkle creams and eye-bag treatments. There are two types of Fennel Oil - Bitter and Sweet. We offer the latter variety, which is the most popular, for its sweet aniseed scent in air purifiers and room sprays. Fennel Sweet Essential Oil is also valued in aromatherapy for its warming, comforting aroma, and is popular in massage and relaxing aromatherapy blends.
