Product Abstract: The small bushy shrubs grow at altitudes ranging from 8800 to 15,400 feet in the Himalayas. A juniper berry is the female seed cone produced by the various species of junipers. It is not a true berry but a cone with unusually fleshy and merged scales, which give it a berry-like appearance. The berries are green when young, and mature to a purple-black color over about 18 months. The berries are plucked from the branches of the plant once a year, and dried and ground before distillation. They have traditionally been used as an aromatic aid to meditation, and had remedial applications.
Cautions: Dilute before use; for external use only. May cause skin irritation in some individuals; a skin test is recommended prior to use. Contact with eyes should be avoided.
Storage: It is recommended that oils packaged in metal containers (for safe shipping) be transferred into dark glass containers to maintain freshness and attain maximum shelf life.

Rating: The Juniper Berry (India) is so lovely! Gorgeous Pine Needle scent without being too strong or medicinal. I blend it with a couple of other oils (Juniper Berry being the primary) in Apricot Kernel Oil and use it as a muscle rub. It's so nice.

Rating: Juniper Berry is a very warm and fragrant oil. I actually bought it by mistake and now I would not be without it. It is great to help sleep.
Rating: I wanted to find the same aroma I get when I infuse juniper berries in a carrier oil, and this is it - all the sweetness and heavy pungency of the berries, less of the high coniferous scents.

Rating: Juniper Berry is such a nice EO, but it has gone up in price since I first ever bought it (though from a different supplier, their price has gone up as well.)
I used to soap with this oil - a pure 100% juniper berry soap, and it was always popular with people. Now I use this EO mostly just in my Muscle Rub for my legs and muscles - and this juniper berry is superior quality than the others I've purchased elsewhere. SO... I don't mind that it's gone up in price - it's a very good quality EO.

Rating: Few days ago I walked too long and my legs got tired.
I did foot bath with Juniper berry and Grapefruit EO.
They actually took the tiredness of my legs. Works wonderfully.

Rating: I love this essential oil. I purchased it a few months ago and it has so many uses.
Rating: A great oil with a slight hint of Gin. I have purchased this several times, and I keep it in stock.

Rating: This is the one and only thing I've bought from NDA that I don't like. From the bottle it's very sharp, almost acrid. It does improve once it's out of the bottle, but it never develops into the woodsy, herbal, resinous smell that I expected based on my experience with a different juniper EO. The final scent is more like a harsh resin than like fresh juniper. It might work well in a blend, but I haven't tried that yet. Maybe a bad batch? The previous reviewer seemed to like it, and everything else I've bought through NDA has been excellent.

Rating: Nice light scent! *VERY* slight hint of a 'gin' smell, it's very nice and fresh.. (it's also 'in my nose' right now and everything is starting to smell like it LOL!)
