Essential garlic oil, wow the benefits of onion and garlic are absolutely great combinations, and in the Greenwood essential range, I could not wait to try it.I know Greenwood’s essential oils fairly well, the oils are 100% pure.A good size 15 mlLovely bottleNot tested on any animalsVeganAlcohol freeNaturalUndilutedTO USE....Do not apply to skin neatUse and mix a few drops in a carrier oilIf any oil splashed on the skin, especially eyes. Do not use water, use milk, or coconut oil to rinse eyes.I use with my carrier oil ( Cetraben, sweet Almond Oil, Emu Oil), add a few drops to the bath, or shower sponge, a few drops with a carrier. If you have olive oil in, that can be used with any essential oils. I also put in my diffuser, especially if I am feeling stuffy ie, a cold etc. I also pop a few drops n my facial steamer, moisturise my face and body + carrier oil.....So the exciting part, what properties does Garlic Essential oil have? Good news it has a lot, and I did feel the benefits. This is a very good oil..Properties/ used for...AnalgesicAnti fungalAnti viralCalmingDecongestant & ExpectantAnticoagulantDisinfectantDiureticLaxativeStimulantTonicLymphaticHelps with BronchitisReduce Blood pressureLowers CholesterolI have read whilst searching that do not use this oil if taking anticoagulant prescribed by your Doctor. This oil by Greenwood’s I am not sure if it is different to some garlic ones on sale, other information I have searched states in their product, the garlic oil helps with people who are on anticoagulant medication. If Greenwood’s states yes it’s true, then please check with your GP.Also check with your Doctor if this is you..Bleeding disordersHaemophiliaHypersensitiveDiseases or damaged skin**Greenwood’s are very up on everything and state, check with a Doctor if unsure if you can use the Essential oil........**The Garlic SmellSo yes of course the inside of the opened box smells of garlic. However I have to say mixed with an essential carrier oil, it’s been pleasant. People get worried about ‘ garlic breath’ or oozing through skin pores.... myself and my husband, not smelt anything. Nothing would put me off this essential garlic oil. With all the benefits, I was so happy to review.Price for a 15 ml bottle £12.48I think Greenwood’s is quality over price personally.Thank you to the seller* I do hope my review helped your decision, thank you*

I enjoy adding this garlic oil to my hair masks.Yes the smell is strong but to be honest, once I'm do e washing my hair, I can't smell it anymore.Used for soo many other things too.

I absolutely love this company's unusual range. Most aromatherapy companies offer a generic range, some offer a slightly wider range, but I have not come across a company that offers anything like the exotic and unusual range as this one does. Moreover, they are being sold at very reasonable prices for what they are: unusual and probably not easy to obtain; natural and 100% pure.Garlic has a myriad of medicinal uses and to find the pure oil is akin to finding aromatherapy gold. This oil is so strong you don't even have to open the cap to know what it is and that it is pure. Garlic has been used to ease respiratory problems such as bronchitis if placed on the chest with something to protect the skin. It can also help with digestive issues as well as many other health issues because, among other properties it is antibacterial and antimicrobial. It is an amazingly versatile spice, but do be careful with it as it is also very strong and you should never touch your eyes after touching garlic, otherwise you'll be leaping around the house in pain!As someone who grows garlic, I can inform you that it would take a LOT of bulbs, not just cloves, to make this amount of oil, which can be expensive. So, I am delighted to be able to add such an unusual oil to my already expansive range.

If you are averse to the scent of garlic then avoid! This powerful oil packs a punch in the odour department! It is definitely not one to add to a room diffuser… unless you are being threatened by a horde of vampires.Practically, this oil has impressive anti bacterial properties and is particularly useful for insect bites, infections and ear problems. It must be diluted before use! It is very soothing to add a few drops to some aloe Vera before adding to a problem area.

This is fantastic essential oil. The garlic scent is really strong, but not overpowering. I'm not sure I'd want to use this on my skin, as intended, since you would likely stink of garlic all day long. Having embraced the advantages of garlic in one's diet, as well as for treatment of ailments, etc, I know how beneficial it can be.I ordered this for alternative purposes. Having heard that cats aren't keen on the smell of garlic, I plan to put drops of this out the front of my house to stop them fouling everywhere. Watch this space when I report back on whether it works...

This garlic essential oil is really good quality and strong in odour. As soon as the bottle was opened I got a goof whiff of it.Just as natural garlic is, the smell is pungent but pleasant.This oil will be great in my difuser and with a cold pressed / carrier oil it will be good for other uses too.Being 100% garlic, with nothing added, one can expect the natural benefits expected from the garlic bulb, which is in the onion family.I'm not a keen fan of garlic in food, I don't mind a little but hat it when the taste of garlic is overpowering and has a strong aftertaste but the smell of it is something I relly like.I am recommending this oil for for it's quality, it's strong aroma and it's good value.

Pungent therapeutic oil well known for its anti bacterial, anti fungal, anti viral and decongestant properties.Excellent for skin infections, the oil is loaded with nutrients and can help control acne and breakouts.Very useful for treating some animal/horse ailments when diluted with carrier oils or aloe vera gel. (use under vet supervision)The smell of fresh cut garlic just oozes from the box even before the bottle has been opened!A high quality oil supplied with a batch number and packing date.
