When used in a low dilution, Fir Needle Absolute imparts a fresh, natural coniferous forest fragrance to a vast selection of perfume compositions and can be blended with many different essential oils.

All pure absolutes such as this oil are now rare and extremely concentrated by nature. They should be properly evaluated in a diluted state otherwise, the complexity of the fragrance, particularly the rare and exotic notes are not properly appreciated.

Pure Absolute Oils should always be diluted with a carrier oil such as grapeseed oil or sweet almond oil before using on the skin. A patch test is recommended to see if your skin is sensitive to the product.

For External Cosmetic Use Only

Keep away from eyes & sensitive areas. Not suitable for babies or children. Do not use on broken skin. Avoid all Absolutes if pregnant or nursing
