Star Anise Essential Oil – 50ml
About this piece
Star Anise Essential Oil in a 50ml bottle, sweet, warm and spicy, with that unmistakable liquorice note. Steam distilled from the star-shaped fruit of Illicium verum in China, it brings depth and festive warmth to blends, candles and soaps.
The eight-pointed pods of star anise have long been treasured in Chinese cookery and tradition, and in the West they have become a symbol of winter spice and celebration. The scent of anise is also said to keep insects away. This larger size suits candle and soap makers, festive blenders and anyone who uses it often.
Use sparingly in a diffuser or burner with orange, cinnamon or clove, or add to your own candles and soaps. Dilute well before use on skin. Avoid during pregnancy and keep out of reach of children. Never leave a lit burner unattended.
