Great vanilla substitute
This Benzoin smells great. And it won't turn cp soap brown. It does speed up trace but not bad. It smells like warm vanilla. Love it

Love this oil, exceptional quality.
Love the smell of benzoin, but have not used it lately. It has a wonderful, creamy, vanilla like smell and mixes especially well with citrus oils. It is a VERY thick oil & I would recommend reading up on how to use thick oils before you work with it. It can be used in many applications. I sometimes just heat it gently to get it out of the bottle & then put it in a carrier oil & gently heat them both together. This is a great product. You just need to learn how to work with a thicker oil first. Otherwise, you may wind up wasting a lot of it. As always, BA delivers exceptional quality.

benzoin
I have been wanting to order this product for some time now. I really wish that I hadn't waited!! This aroma is deep, warm and seductive. I have blended this into my mint foot cream and together the scent is fabulous.

Wonderful scent
As the others have written, this oil is thick. Just heat it up a little and it's very nice. I could smell this scent all day. I put this in my own face cream and it's wonderful and smells fabulous. It does not bother my skin at all.

Awesome!
Love this oil! Made the mistake of rubbing it all over my hair & skin, right out of the bottle, smelled so good, but of course had to shampoo it out quick before i got tangles..am experimenting with thinning it out w/ dmso & propylene glycol & ethanol,etc,so we'll see..by far my fave oil!

Love the vanilla smell!
This was my first purchase of benzoin to give a family member. I ordered two .5 oz. bottles, one for me and one for him. We both love it! It's definitely thick and sticky. I will order again.
My order was quite large with many different oils, and one of these bottles and another bottle leaked during shipment. Bulk Apothecary immediately sent replacement bottles. I love dealing with honorable businesses. Thanks BA! You're the best.
