The best oil in the market

This was my first buy and all my expectations were exceeded . I normally buy the Peppermint oil and use it as rodent control in my all of my cars engine compartment and on my laminated floors. But this is much better and the fragrance is long lasting . Using it on my laundry work 100%better that fabric softener. Highly highly recommend this

Spearmint

Have grandchildren and I replace peppermint with spearmint and they enjoy the aroma . I love using it with my evening blends as it is fresh but not overpowering which makes it very versatile.
