"EXCELLENT FOR CP SOAP"
COMMENTS:  This essential oil smells sooooo good! Unfortunately, I and my niece are the only ones that enjoy the smell of anise, so it was not a good seller, but if you like this scent, then go for it. It holds up beautifully in CP soap and behaves very well.

COMMENTS:  Upon opening the bottle, I was immediately reminded of a box of good and plenty candy. Since I love G&P, this is the scent for me. I plan to purchase this item again so that I have extra on hand. Even if you're not a lover of licorice, there are so many ways a crafter can incorporate the scent into their products. It's a hit in my house!!!

"Great for Hunting!"
COMMENTS:  I got this to use in a cp soap for hunters, but have yet to try it that way. What I did was add it to a carrier oil in a little vial for my husband to use when hunting. He applied it like a perfume, and it really worked to mask his scent while hunting. The animals would walk right up to him without even knowing he was there! He said it has never happened like that before. I don't think the animals are particularly attracted to the scent, but rather it hides the human scent from them. I'm planning to put some in a lotion bar next.

"True Licorice Smell"
COMMENTS:  I hesitantly ordered this just to try it. My husband is a sucker for licorice, but picky--he likes the real, gourmet licorice taste. This scent is a hit with him! And I love it too, it is mouthwatering and hard not to want to eat the soap! It did cause my cold process to accelerate and heat up, but just expect that. It did not cause discoloration, and the scent lasted through saponification and 8 weeks curing at 1 oz/lb of oils.

It made a perfect night time/ relaxing bath tea very soothing in scent and you only need a few drops which will provide a long lasting fragance.

"Anise EO"
COMMENTS:  I purchased this product way back in September of 2014 and only just used it to make a 'hunter's' soap, I hope the hunters find it worthwhile I myself am not crazy about the scent but it is what it is represented to be. It's strange because I actually like the smell of star anise, but this is pretty overpowering so a little will go a long way. I am satisfied with the product, because I bought it for a specific purpose and I feel that it fulfilled that purpose.

"Anise EO"
COMMENTS:  This is what I chose to make a soap for fishermen, it takes the smell of fish off your hands and when fishing fish do not see anise as threatening. Love it.

"Anise EO"
COMMENTS:  I had been wanting to try this essential oil and finally ordered it. I had read some reviews from others in various venues; knew that the aroma and learned that it is not everyone's favorite however I needed it to complete a range of EO's which I blend. To my delight, I was able to use this and was satisfied with the result. In cold process soap, it is very strong at first and after the soap is cured becomes much more tolerant scent-wise. I am not one who dislikes the aroma however I am aware that it is a unique aroma and because it fit my need I was very satisfied with it's performance.

"Makes the PERFECT Anise soap "
COMMENTS:  Everyone LOVES Anise, at least that is what I have found to be true :) This EO works so well with Orange, Cedar...anything that is warm, citrus or spicy. I top my Orange Anise Soaps with real Star Anise and some glitter for a gorgeous bar that begs to go home and straight to the bath! This is really a fabulous must have EO, and the price is great. Thanks!

"Smells Just Like Anis Candy!!!"
COMMENTS:  I use to dig the Anis Root when I was a kid walking with my great uncle. We were walking along a dirt road in southern Ohio. He knew the plant and we would dig the root so his wife could make Licorice Jelly Beans! This smells exactly like the scent of that root....Oh, so good was that candy....just takes me back in time!!!! Behaves well in CP soap and no ricing or seizing.....Plenty of time to work with....So you don't have to rush with this one.....
