Very woody smell. I think this smells just like the trees in my grandmothers yard. I would have been disapointed if it had be a floral scent.

For some reason I was thinking this would smell more like rose- or a floral smell, but it doesn't. It still smells good but don't expect a floral scent.

This oil is a tad more acidic smelling than other juniper oils I have used from other countries. I blended it with some benzoin and found the gin smell to be neutralized quite nicley in my forest potpurri.

I was surprised at how unisex this scent seems...I had thought it would smell more floral..not that I'm complaining, mind you! I'm thrilled that men and women love this scent and it's a wonderful combination of earthy tones with bright sweetness.

Excellent quality! Light and fresh – it has a woody, peppery, pine aroma. Nice astringent properties for the skin and hair and incredible in anti-cellulite blends. Highly recommended!

Fresh and head-clearing, this EO smells exactly like the berries from my mother's juniper bush. A bit of a gin quality.

Nice light scent! *VERY* slight hint of a 'gin' smell, it's very nice and fresh.. (it's also 'in my nose' right now and everything is starting to smell like it LOL!)

A nice smelling oil. I use it in many of my blends but note it is an ABORTIFACIENT. Use for acne, bronchitis, cellulitis, eczema, hysteria, incense, obesity, respiratory ailments, rheumatism, skin ailments, stress, women's ailments. Great price, good quality.
