Carrot seed oil may not be what you or your customers expect, but it's like a good wine...three sips and you're in. There is something that stirs the memory, brings you back in time, simplifies. The properties of healing and improving skin, hair and mood are just the beginnings of using this oil. Great therapeutic properties, well worth getting used to, I promise.

I bought this to use in my night cream, but ended up hoarding it mostly for myself! It appears expensive, but remember, most essential oils, including this one, should be diluted in a carrier oil, and not used directly on skin, so a little goes a long way.
When I use it in my night cream formula for customers, I noticed the same smell others have written of, but I balanced it out with Litsea Cubeba Essential Oil for a less earthy smell. My customers were 50/50 on that, so a new product was born.

This oil is very pungent but very beneficial in skin creams and eye treatments. I use this personally and you can really see the difference in facial lines. Love it.

I love carrot seed oil, it is one of my top 5 favorite essential oils to use. This was my first time ordering from Camden-Grey and I love this particular oil. It has a strong smell, to be sure, however, it is a very potent oil and a little bit goes a very long way. It is not an unpleasant smell - fairly earthy and woodsy - but it can be strong. It mixes well with other essential and carrier oils into a personalized mix. It comes in a tinted glass bottle that you can continue to store it in. I will absolutely be re-ordering this one again!

I love the scent of this oil but be careful to not use a lot of it because it has a strong scent. This oil is great as an ingredient for sunscreen and great to use for protection against the sun.

Carrot Seed EO has a very strong and pungent aroma that is sweet and woody. The smell is hard to cover up with other EO's, but the benefits are worth it! I blend it with grapeseed oil for a night moisturizer, and in the morning my skin feels tight, flexible and rejuvenated.

We mixed this carrot seed oil with a little shea butter and applied it to our baby's weeping eczema before bedtime. The next morning I noticed that the area was no longer oozing and redness had subsided significantly. Anyone who suffers from eczema should have a bottle of this stuff on hand at all times!

When I first opened the bottle I was kicked back lol. Carrot seed oil has a VERY STRONG smell to me at least. But the benefits from this oil outweigh the smell. I made the mistake of using a bit to much on my first application on my face, and was at the skin scrubbing it for at least 10 minutes :(. But don't let the smell keep you from buying. The oil is perfect!

What a strange scent. Has a kind of bitter medicine-y smell. After the initial shock, it really grows on you. I am excited to try it out on lotions and creams, as I've heard so much about it's amazing properties for skin.
