Parfum aromatique: Ravensara est dit avoir un parfum médicinal qui est camphory comme avec des notes fruitées. Ravensara ne doit pas être confondu avec l’huile de Ravintsara qui provient de la botanique Cinnamomum camphora que Ravensara est une huile complètement différente chimiquement et aromatiquement. Il a un arôme épicé à base de plantes tandis que le Ravintsara sent très réminiscent d’Ecalyptus Globulus. Ne vous laissez pas berner par d’autres entreprises qui vendent le moins cher Ravintsara et essayer de le faire passer comme Ravensara. Si vous obtenez cette huile d’un autre vendeur et il sent comme Eucalyptus alors vous avez été dupé.
Se marie bien avec : Clove Bud, Eucalyptus, Lavande et Rosemary.
Les huiles essentielles de tailles de 30 ml ou plus ne sont pas emballées avec des couvercles de goutte.
The last batch I got from you was very thick. This is a much lighter texture. Still experimenting.
Not quite what I expected since the previous ravensara oil I purchased elsewhere smelled a bit different, but it is still nice. Blends well with other respiratory relief oils such as eucalyptus, frankincense, etc. It has a slightly heavy, masculine smell but not overpowering. Works well in a diffuser to alleviate congestion due to colds or asthma.
I use Ravensara in a blend with 4 other essential oils for a warm & spicy masculine scent. It is one of my favourite EOs.
this review is more about service. My ravensara turned out to be fennel and was labeled wrong. Was deeply concerned quality control, but spoke to staff and was informed all orders are poured individually and not beforehand. what a relief! This issue was resolved very quickly and to my satisfaction. Mistakes happen… but how they are handled matters most. I have no complaints and would order again.
Note:
Ravensara Aromatica oil, Madagascar – Not to be confused with Ravintsara oil which comes from the botanical Cinnamomum camphora. Ravensara is a completely different oil both chemically and aromatically. It has a spicy, herbal aroma whereas the Ravintsara smells very reminiscent of eucalyptus globulus because of the high 1,8-cineole content. By contrast, Ravensara has very little 1,8-cineole. Don\’t be fooled by other companies who sell the cheaper Ravintsara and try to pass it off as Ravensara. If you get this oil from another vendor and it smells like Eucalyptus then you have been duped!
