FAQ — Garlic Essential Oil (manufacturer)

First, our Garlic essential oil is 100% pure and natural, steam-distilled from the bulbs of Allium sativum. Moreover, its intensely pungent, sulfurous aroma is prized in functional blends and targeted home-care. Consequently, when properly diluted, it supports deodorising, clarifying routines in rinse-off skincare and cleaning projects.

What makes Garlic oil different?

In short, a profile rich in allyl sulfides (e.g., diallyl di/tri-sulfides) with traces of ajoene delivers a powerful, kitchen-fresh character. In addition, it blends well at micro-dose with lemon, rosemary, thyme, tea tree and black pepper to round edges. Therefore, it shines in deodorising sprays, targeted rinse-off cleansers and niche perfumery accents at extremely low levels.

How to use it — dilution & applications (step by step)

1. First, always dilute before skin use: ≈0.05–0.2% for face (rinse-off preferred); ≈0.2–0.5% for body.
2. Next, perform a 24-hour patch test on the inner forearm before first use.
3. Then, apply on intact skin only; avoid the eye area and mucous membranes.
4. Afterwards, for diffusion or room care, use sparingly (1–2 drops in large, well-ventilated spaces).
5. Finally, for deodorising sprays and surface cleaners, keep total fragrance at low levels; shake before use.
6. Optionally, pair with citrus (lemon) or herbs (rosemary/thyme) to brighten and balance the note.

Additionally, start low and increase gradually according to tolerance. Alternatively, prefer rinse-off formats for first trials.
