These natural materials are blended to achieve an aromatic and therapeutic profile similar to the true essential oil in cases where the true essential oil is not the best option.

Features & Benefits

Complex woodsy and musky fragrance is perfect for home aromatherapy

May boost sex drive in both men and women

Increases blood flow when applied topically with a carrier oil

Spikenard was commonly used in the past to uplift and strengthen the mind and body, and was the most effective aphrodisiac known to ancient cultures. These therapeutic effects are more potent than ever in its modern form, making Spikenard an excellent massage oil, though it's also effective when added to a diffuser. Its woodsy, spicy, musky odor appeals to many, though even those who find it a bit too powerful should enjoy it when mixed with sweet orange and cinnamon. Alternatively, a blend with vetiver and valerian will emphasize the mind-strengthening effects of spikenard oil.

Very pretty and secure packaging.

I would like the outside of the box marked with the oil name and easier to open without damaging box, so I can give as a gift.
