Amazing product. Absolutely love it and will be using this site for all future needs. Thank you
I love the smell and good sleep!
I have been wanting to try Palo Santo for a long time and am so glad I finally have. It is so relaxing and wonderful. I love diffusing it with Atlas Cedarwood and a bit of Ylang Ylang and White Sage after work. I'm a night shift worker and when I come home in the morning it can be hard to sleep sometimes. If diffuse this, I fall asleep so fast and sleep so well!
Love this oil so much!!
A must buy. Makes me feel like I’m sitting on a California beach in front of a bonfire
