    Intense alone, works well with woodsy and herbal fo's or eo's
    I thought I'd give cajeput a try, used it in small amounts in CP soaps as one eo among a few. It added a sweet smell that seemed to balance the minty/herbal or woodsy smells. Straight from the bottle, this eo can make me feel like I'm sitting beside someone with heavy cheap perfume all woozy and slightly nauseous.When added to soap fats/butters, it mellowed and aged in lovely way.
