While blending a perfume, I got a little of this oil on my thumbs. I was pleasantly surprised at the warming sensation it brought - almost tingly. It reminded me of the sensation on my tongue when I eat celery sticks (love celery).

Celeryseed E.O. by it's self isn't so interesting in terms of scent, but if you mix it with Carrot seed oil, mmm, now that is a different story, makes me want to juice up glass of some carrots and celery. And it is great for the liver, kidneys and galbladder.
