I got this for mixing perfumes, and I really like the sweet, rich scent--nice for a lighter base than some of the woody scents.

Excellent price for the quality! Most are much more expensive. Perfect for that old world scent in your blends, not much known about the aromatherapy qualities, more for perfumery.
