Anise Seed Essential Oil is steam distilled from the seeds of the Pimpinella anisum plant. It's odor is intensely sweet and clean.
Like most of the oils distilled from the seed, and common herbs, this is a powerful therapeutic oil, with phenolic constituents.
In Aromatherapy, Anise Seed Essential Oil is mostly used for muscle work and congestion, as well as to treat conditions of stress and over excitement as it is said to have an immediate calming effect on the central nervous system, to slow one down. When used on it's own Anise Seed Essential Oil will give your products a spicy / sweet licorice scent with a calming activity.
In blending Anise Seed Essential Oil can add a depth of intensity and a warm note. It blends well with any citrus oils, as well as any of the other spice, seed, oils. A great choice for adding that food note to blends.
