I bought this because I saw Palmerosa described as a citrus smell. To me it smells like a sweet iced tea. I would never want this as a dominant scent in a blend. But it can easily blend with other oils and be used in a supporting role. I do add a little of this in quite a few blends.

I love this essential oil when used in any application for the face. I use it in creams and cleansers for the face because of the anti-fungal properties, which is usually one of the underlying issues of acne. The scent does well with ladies who love a floral but not overpowering smell.

This oil surpassed my expectations and has become one of my favorites. Smells very close to rose, expect it has green/grassy notes. A great "soapy" smell that isn't overpowering.

I really like Palmarosa! Its a cheaper way to get a rosey, floral, slightly fruity scent in your products. It smells so good you almost dont need to mix it with anything!

I was surprised when I smelled this the first time. It has an earthy-herbal smell with underlying rose. I really liked it. It is a great combination with lavender in my soaps, and it is A LOT more cost effective than rose essential oil or even geranium bourbon, for that matter. Thanks for a great product at a great price!

This oil makes my mouth water. It is fruity and satisfying. I remember peeling the twigs of fruit trees as a child and this is what my fingers would smell like afterward. This scent makes me happy.

This oil made my list because of its circulatory and antiviral attributes. It also hydrating which is a bonus. The smell takes some getting used to but hey, it's authentic and isn't outside of the norm. It's not a bad smell, just different. Overall, this is a very good oil at a great price.

This is not my favorite palmarosa, it's a little more leathery and less sweet, but the price is excellent.

Palmarosa is one of my favorite EO's! I put a little in so many different products! It's pretty and has a purpose (aids in the skin's elasticity, is an anitviral, etc).
