Reviews

Unique

"Unique scent!"

T (5/5)

Delicious, vanilla-y scent. New favorite

"Delightful, yummy, vanilla-like fragrance with some sweetness and spice. Very calming and delicious. I mixed this Plant Therapy's vetiver, organic lavendar, lemon, and defender in a base of grapeseed oil and made a lovely natural perfume. I'm obsessed. I'm going to try making some other body care stuff too, and just diffusing in my home. It is quite sweet, so if you don't like sweet, rich scents, it may not be for you, or you'll want to use less of it in a blend with less sweet essential oils."

Carrie (5/5)

Love this oil

"This smells wonderful in my body lotion."

Alisha W. (5/5)

Take a trip to Peru for good smells!

"When you say it smells like vanilla and it's a conifer, I never knew it would be so amazing! I want to go to Peru now!"

Jillian (5/5)

Peru Balsam

"I absolutely love the scent of this essential oil and as always the quality of plant therapy products are amazing"

Kathleen F. (5/5)

Solo performer

"I should say this oil is very intensive and if you want to mix it it will dominate in this orchestra, but even solo it is very self sufficient and nice."

elena t. (5/5)

Fabulous smell!

"My new favorite smell, smells like an exotic perfume, hints of spices with vanilla."

Valentina S. (5/5)

Can’t quite put my finger on it.

"It smells very familiar but unique at the same time. I am using it in a diffuser which I read isn’t ideal as it’s quite a thick oil but my diffuser is a cheap Kmart one."

Niall M. (3/5)

Happy in Peru Balsam

"I have always loved diffusing Vanilla recipes in diffuser but my new favorite of late is diffusing Peru Balsam with lavender and patchouli. Such a wonderful relaxing aroma. Plant Therapy products can’t be beat."

Donna B. (5/5)

Good Quality! Nice Scents.

"This one had a very nice scent! subtle vanilla."
