The history of fennel dates back to ancient times when Roman warriors were said to have consumed fennel to make ready for battle. Today, Fennel essential oil is best known for its distinct licorice taste that can be used to flavour desserts, and for its refreshing, sweet scent that can enrich any atmosphere. When applied topically, Fennel oil provides a soothing sensation on the skin and helps keep skin looking healthy.

Description

Why should I add Fennel oil to my collection? Fennel essential oil is made up of chemical components known for their energizing and uplifting aromatic properties. E-anethole, the primary chemical constituent of Fennel oil, is distinctly sweet, providing a naturally sourced taste perfect for when you experience sugar cravings. The presence of fenchol also contributes to the energizing aroma of Fennel oil—most commonly admired when diffused or used during a soothing massage.
