    The wonders of Spikenard

    Margarete Schladitz (verified owner)

    There is a long list of benefits using Spikenard essential oil. From insomnia to wound healing, stimulating the immune system just to name a few.
    Aromasense essential oils are of such high quality, I’ll buy it again when I am finished with my bottle!

      We totally agree, Spikenard is a fabulous oil and it is a pitty that it is not as well known under the general public.

    Excellent well balanced woody oil

    Amanda Roberts (verified owner)

    I bought this essential oil for an Abundance and Proserity Class I run online. Its excellent for its purpose. I had it in the specific class on clearing blocks, beliefs, programs stopping you from accessing A & P last week. Tonights class is different and I shall use this oil again. I have recommended it’s use for my students as one of the main essentials oils to use for attracting A & P into your life. Use safely. A high quality organic oil.

    High Quality Spikenard!

    Ritchie Grijaldo (verified owner)

    I bought the 100ml primarily for Biblical reasons. My wife also bought an awesome diffuser however even if the essential oils she use are of high quality, either the essential oils are too sweet or too strong.

    Spikenard is earthy and relaxing. It is best used while I am studying and meditating. It is also great to help for sleep. Unlike other essential oils we used which requires two to three drops to be effective, this one only requires one drop. High quality indeed.

    I also like the sweet dreams, as it is obviously designed for sleeping 🙂
