Q: Can I add this directly to water-based sprays or room mists?
A: Not directly. Essential oils are not water soluble, so you’ll need a suitable solubiliser for a stable water-based spray.

Q: Why should I use this sparingly in blends?
A: Camphor has a very strong aroma and can easily dominate a blend, so small amounts are usually sufficient.

Q: Why might the aroma vary between batches?
A: Natural essential oils can vary slightly due to seasonal conditions, growing region, and harvest variability.
