FAQs About Plant Therapy Basil Linalool Essential Oil
Q: What does Basil Linalool essential oil smell like? A: It smells fresh and herbaceous, with a softer sweet, floral note. Compared with some other basil oils, it usually comes across less sharp and a bit more rounded.
Q: Does this one go in a diffuser? A: Yes. Start with 2 to 3 drops per 100 mL of water, which is a pretty typical amount for a diffuser.
Q: Should I put it straight on my skin? A: No. Dilute it in a carrier oil first. The max topical dilution for this one is 3.3%.
Q: I've heard basil oil can help when I feel groggy. Is that what this is used for? A: Yes, many people diffuse it when they want a more fresh, focused aromatic experience.
Q: Why does it say Basil Linalool? A: Because this type of basil oil has a linalool-heavy aroma profile. The ingredient is still just organic Ocimum basilicum oil, but the linalool type tends to smell a little softer and more floral than spicier basil oils.
Q: Can I use this in massage oil or DIY body care? A: Yes, that’s a common way to use it. Just keep it diluted in your carrier oil, and for leave-on skin products, stay at or below that 3.3% max.
Q: My doctor said to be careful with essential oils. Any safety concerns with this one? A: Yes, you do need to be careful. Don’t take it internally unless a qualified practitioner tells you to. Keep it away from your eyes and other sensitive areas. If you’re pregnant or nursing, talk to your OB or midwife before using it.
