Blending note
  • Has a very distinct "rooty," earthy, and slightly musky aroma with a dry, woody finish
  • Because it is so earthy, it is considered a middle-to-base note that helps anchor lighter, sweeter scents
  • To make Carrot Seed oil smell its best, you generally want to blend it with oils that add "brightness" or "softness" to its heavy profile
------------ ------------
Do you know? The plant is commonly called “Queen Anne’s Lace” because the delicate white flower resembles lace; the tiny red dot in the center is said to be a drop of the Queen’s blood

Contraindication
