Choose which essential oil to use not only for its fragrance but for its other effects Use relaxing essential oils for that special evening for two, stimulating ones to get the conversation going during the pre-dinner drinks, and soothing ones with the after dinner brandy. Later still you may want to bring out the aromatic candles. All the essential oil candles have a very subtle effect and are not overpowering like the chemical candle fragrances. The ultimate in hostess attentiveness must be coordinating the fragrance of your candles with the color of your candles and decor. Try putting a relaxing candle next to the person who always hogs the conversation and a stimulating one next to the introverted guest.

been adulterated. We do not sell this product because the rectification process eliminates therapeutically important minor constituents. Rectified oil is decongesting but it is harsh on the bronchial muscles, sometimes causing constriction.Our Eucalyptus is not medicinal smelling at all and is much softer than others on the market. The unrectified Eucalyptus Globulus has a softer,nicer scent and is therapeutically superior to the industrially produced rectified oil.

It is highly effective when used with Ravansara aromatica, against colds, flu and sinusitis.A refreshing camphorus oil with a scent that is lighter than Eucalyptus Globulus. Patricia Davis says this is the most useful Eucalyptus as it has a pleasant smell and is easily assimilated. It has many of the same uses as Eucalyptus Globulus but it is milder in its chemical composition and gentler in action. Despite its mild chemical composition, it is highly antibacterial and anti-viral. Eucalyptus Radiata has been proven effective in laboratory tests against many viruses, including staphylococci. It is also a powerful decongestant: in chronic and acute bronchitis it reduces the swelling of mucus membranes, loosens phlegm and increases the oxygen supply to restricted cells.
