Safety & Warnings
Non-toxic, though it may cause skin irritation and may be sensitizing, especially if oxidized. Essential Oil Safety by Tisserand and Young (second edition), suggest using it in a low dilution when applying to the skin, such as in bath or massage oils (0.5% dilution based on a 3.8% of Methyl Eugenol content in the oil). Often the oil has a lower percentage of Methyl Eugenol, so check your GC/MS report. For some people using it in a steam may irritate the mucous membranes. Should not be used for children under 5 years old, as 1,8 cineole can also cause CNS and breathing problems in young children. Use with caution on children between 5-10 years old.

A Passion for Aromatherapy
Aromatics International would not be what it is today without your shared belief in what we do, what we stand for, and how we conduct our aromatherapy practice.
I embarked on my journey to source pesticide-free, sustainable products from small-scale farmers and a major criteria of mine is that everything I source is both aromatically vibrant and also therapeatically effective. I love sharing what I find in this world with others. I am constantly blown away by the positive response I receive from all of you. I thank all of you for your strong support throughout the years and am continually inspired by the warm words you share with me. It truly keeps me going.
Love, Karen
