Review:

This is a pretty nice line. The oils come in a glass bottle that, while lovely and looks nice on the counter, isn't always the easiest to use once you've used the oil. Putting that aside, here's a concise look at each product.

The scent description of the Shower Gel had me drooling at the mouth. Sadly, for me, the actual scent wasn't as terrific. The gel does foam up nicely and it's pretty soothing on the skin, not at all drying. But for me, the scent of a shower product is most important and I was missing the sultry smells of clove, patchouli and ylang ylang that enticed me to try it.

The Hair Oil on the other hand, is simply divine. The ylang ylang comes through so heavenly that EVERY TIME is use it, I then shake my hair so I can step back and inhale the scent. Yes, the price tag is a bit steep, and my basic search on mustard seed and sesame oil, makes them seem fairly reasonably priced. But I also know that using pure cold-pressed oils as the main ingredient base gets pricey by the sheer volume of product. The choice is yours. Comparably, Origins USDA Certified Hair oil sells a 1 ounce bottle for $23 bucks, so add it up.

Lastly, the Body Oil is super rich, boosted with Rosehip oil and the scent of mandarin oil is simply delicious. I've cheated and used this on my hair, and I must report, keep it for body use. After a hot shower it feels like a silky glove.

The product line is available at their home site as well as Beautorium.
