Origin and Botany
Juniper (Juniperus communis) is an evergreen shrub or small tree belonging to the cypress family (Cupressaceae). It is widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere, growing in cold and temperate climates, from Europe and Asia to North America. The berries, which are botanically fleshy seed cones, take two to three years to mature and are traditionally hand-harvested. The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of these mature berries, concentrating their aromatic compounds and natural properties.

Regalo con el que aciertas
Un surtido de 35 aceites cada uno de 5 ml. Aromas muy buenos, proyectan bastante y fieles a su aroma real. La presentación es muy elegante en su estuche como si fuese un libro. Cada aceite viene con una tapa interna de seguridad para no derramarse. Trae 4 goteros para coger el producto y vienen ejemplos de combinaciones para preparar según tu estado de ánimo.
Muy buena presentación
Me ha gustado mucho !! La presentación es estupenda y puede ser un regalo precioso para quien le gusten los aromas y aceites esenciales.
Descontento
Huelen fenomenal, buena presentación. El problema que cuando lo mezclas con la cera, no se aprecia al estar encendida la vela.
Variedad y calidad
He olido todos y en general me gustan y parecen adecuados. Ya he hecho preparados de mezclas de aceites esenciales con un aceite portador y los resultados creo que han sido muy buenos.
