Smells wonderful even though this is strong right out of the bottle it does settle down and soften with wear. Don't let the strong sent fool you it is great

This is a great oil. I love the geranium smell. It really doesn't smell very "rosey" to me, though I haven't tried any other geranium yet so nothing to compare to. I use it in room spray, toner, & PMS bath soak. Nice for balance and emotionaly uplifting. I can't wait to try more ND oils! I love every one I have tried so far!

Got my shipment very fast~ great delivery service! This is my first time smelling rose geranium S. Africa...... I would say that it's a beautiful flora and citrus-ish scent. :) One of my new favorites! I now understand why people say it's sometimes used to extend the rose scent. Rose geranium is floral at the same time "energetic"? It has that crispness that most floral scents don't. Be careful to scent it in tiny amounts since it can easily become overwhelming.

This has a very interesting quality. I first thought it was too subtle but I agree with the other reviewer, it does have a depth to it. It's fresh and layered, very relaxing too. I'm very happy with the quality.

The scent is similar to Geranium, but not as heady and strong and it has something else, depth... can't quite put my finger on it. Nice oil.
