I placed my order and had a full set of 8 pure essential oils. What inspired me to buy them was the way in which the website has articulated the benefits. I received my full order in a perfect cardbox easy to use package. The cost of essential oils is such a bliss too and loving the aroma that fills the room. Perfect for winter months, will highly recommend.
Oils are well priced compared to others and has good aroma.
