Great for brain

It has strong fragrance.

Perfectly viscous Benzoin. just the way it should be.

I love the oil. It smells lovely, but it doesn't have anything with which to put the drops. Otherwise good. Quick delivery.

It's expensive, but I love it.

Glass bottle would be more suitable as the plastic gets sticky and maybe dissolves partially.Purity of the substance is ok but can be better.

I purchased this primarily for improving the immunity of my son from cough, colds and allergic bronchitis.Product (labelled Oreganum Vulgare) was delivered on time. Packaging was sufficiently protective, and the glass bottle came through without any problems! Manufacturing date was December 2015, with an expiry of 30 months after production date.After opening the cap of the bottlle, one needs to remove the protective stopper, and insert the provided dropper in it's place. Be careful while handling the removed stopper, as the oil in it's undiluted form can burn (wash with soap to stop the burning sensation!)One thing to note about the dropper is that it very precisely (and slowly) delivers ONE drop at a time. You have to invert the bottle and wait for 5-10 seconds patiently, and you will see an exact drop fall out. If you hurry, and wonder why the drops are not falling, just be patient. In the case of such powerful oils, it is a good thing that such a dropper is fixed, otherwise one might inadvertently dose with a high number of drops! So this is a plus!When giving children a dose of this oil orally, I found that mixing this in a bit of water doesn't solve the bad burning sensation. This oil didn't seem to mix into the water, instead floating on the surface of the water (expected, since it's an oil!)Instead, I took one ml of melted ghee, mixed in ONE drop of the oil, and then made it more palatable with some Ayurvedic cough syrup. Shake properly to ensure that everything mixes together. If given in this manner your child shouldn't face any burning issues. Burning sensation starts within a few seconds of the oil touching the skin, so be aware of this.However, if some light smear of the oil touches the lips etc, wash their face with a dab of soap to resolve this quickly and effectively.As far as the effects are concerned, I will update with how my son's cold has improved after a few days. As of now, after a day of usage, the only thing I am seeing is that mucus production and throw out has increased by at least 5 times what it was before (it might be a sign of the infection being resolved).Also, in my own case, I found that inhaling steam with a drop of this oil felt good, with a comfortable mild burning sensation in the throat and nasal passages. After the steam inhalation, I found mucus freeing up quite a bit, and I also had a bit more of productive cough. The mucus was loosening without heavy coughing. Again, this might be a positive thing, as collected mucus might be getting freed up.I will update on this part after a few days!
