Absolute Aromas Tea Tree Essential Oil 10ml - Pure, Natural, Undiluted, Cruelty Free and Vegan – for Aromatherapy, Diffusers and Face, Hair, Skin and Nail Care

I’ve been exploring aromatherapy for several years, and Absolute Aromas has consistently been a brand I trust for quality. Their Benzoin 40% Dilution is no exception, and it has quickly become a "hug in a bottle" during these colder winter months of early 2026. Scent & Quality The first thing you notice is the aroma—it’s wonderfully rich, sweet, and balsamic, with unmistakable vanilla undertones. Because it is sourced from Siam (Styrax tonkinensis) rather than the coarser Sumatran variety, the scent is refined and smooth. I specifically chose this version because I wanted to avoid an ethanol extract, which can often be too harsh, overly "medicinal," or drying on the skin. Even for someone like me who can be sensitive to sharp fragrances, this resin feels grounded and soothing; when properly diluted, it never triggered a headache or caused any respiratory irritation. Texture & Practicality (The 40% Dilution) Benzoin is naturally a thick, glassy resin. Absolute Aromas dilutes this to 40% in Benzyl Benzoate (an odourless diluent) to make it pourable. A Pro-Tip: Even at 40%, it can still thicken in a cold room. If the oil won’t come out of the dropper, simply roll the bottle between your palms for a minute to warm it up. It flows perfectly once it reaches body temperature. Skin Barrier & Sensitivity I am always cautious because many essential oils can be harsh on the skin barrier, potentially stripping lipids if used incorrectly. This product contains Benzyl Benzoate, which is a known allergen and a solvent used to keep the resin liquid. However, my experience was very positive: when I properly diluted it (3 drops per 10 g of oils and butters), it did not inflame my sensitive skin. Instead, it felt as though it helped to soothe and protect my hands. If you have a history of contact dermatitis, I highly recommend a patch test first, as the resinous nature can be sensitising for some users. How I Use It Skincare: I add 3 drops to a bland, unscented moisturiser or carrier oil. It is excellent for "sealing" moisture into the skin exposed to dry, biting winds. Constructive Feedback The bottle uses a standard dropper, but a pipette might be easier given the viscosity. Also, be aware that the oil has a deep amber hue - be careful with light-coloured towels or linens as it can stain if not handled carefully. Final Verdict If you’re looking for a comforting, high-quality Benzoin that smells like a luxury spa, this is a good choice. It’s ethical, sustainably sourced, and provided you respect the need for dilution, it is a gentle powerhouse for the winter. Pros: Superior Siam quality; rich vanilla scent. Avoids the harshness of ethanol-based extracts. Non-irritating to my sensitive skin when properly diluted. Did not cause headaches or scent-sensitivity issues. Cons: Contains Benzyl Benzoate (potential allergen for some). Requires gentle warming in cold weather to flow. I highly recommend this for anyone building a "winter wellness" kit.

Yesterday I got it, same day my mother had pains in her kidneys(infection) so on internet ive seen how you can apply few drops of cedar wood oil and massage it into the painful place, I’ve done it to my mother and it didn’t help with kidneys but it helped with pain , she had less pain and she could breathe properly. Also, I sprayed my whole house with it (mixed with water) and added few drops to the diffuser and it helped with cockroaches! I recently moved to a new house and found out that I have cockroaches in the new apartment because of the previous tenants. So, on internet I found out that cockroaches hate the smell of cedarwood oil and I got it. All of them where trying to escape, I could see them panicking and from the ground they were escaping to the ceiling (less smell). I spayed all of the house and now I see less of them. Cockroaches didn’t enter to my room at all because I spayed my bed and my doors and used diffuser. They tried to get into my brothers room when his room didn’t smell like cedarwood oil (I didn’t spray his room at that time) but I managed to kill all of them from his room and spayed it. It was a peaceful night. I am terrified of bugs and once I found out that we have cockroaches I’ve always been panicking. But now I found a way to get rid of them. I tried pests gel and traps and etc but nothing worked better than cedarwood oil. Also, today in the morning my neighbour knocked at the door and said how there’s a lot of cockroaches in his house now. There’s less in my house now and I will be buying more bottles of cedarwood oil as yesterday I used a whole bottle. Now me and my neighbour will be doing it to save our houses from disgusting pests. Because I used a lot of cedarwood oil in my room (1/3 of the bottle) I felt dizzy and had headache and my husband and my dog didn’t fancy it. My dog was itching and later on I found out how dogs can get an allergic reaction and I also have parrots and I read how they can have some problems too. Now I will use less of it in my room where the pets are, but definitely use it everyday until all of the cockroaches leave my house. How I did it? I mixed cedarwood oil (3-5drops) with diffuser that is lavender scent (as cockroaches hate it too). I also applied two drops on the candles that are citrus and lavender scent (pests hate it) and I did it twice a day (each candle lasts 6 hours, I used one candle per one room (in bigger rooms I used two) and I used one candle in the morning and one in the evening). Also, I splashed/applied few drops on every door at the top and bottom and smudged it so the smell can be everywhere. I applied few drops on every bed (on the frame) but if you have bed bugs them you should do it on the mattress (found it on internet). And finally, I mixed half of up water with 3 table spoons of lavender liquid (got it from the diffuser) and added 5 drops of cedarwood oil and sprayed the floor and rooms. Amazing product! Would definitely recommend it ! Another thing, I have severe anaemia and I always feel tired but for some reason I can’t fall asleep but yesterday I slept so well and fell asleep earlier than usual after applying cedarwood oil everywhere.

Smells just like sweet oranges. Yet to know if it will have ant effect.

This is so so strong smelling, can even smell it through the gloves I was wearing when applying it to a cotton ball, good stuff , many thanks

Oh my days this is gorgeous! I've never bought Benzoin before, but I've bought it in perfumery, and love it, and this is no different. I've bought about 40 different Oils from Absolute Aromas and although very well priced and would lead you to believe that it's not going to be the real thing, I have never bought anything from them that was not outstanding, dare I say better than Tisserand, and Neals Yard, and on par with Aromatherapy Associates and much much cheaper than Dotera. Highly reomcmmended, I always buy the green label as opposed to the blue label (organic), not sure if it's just my nose but I sense the green label is slightly nicer and has a much larger selection, all brilliantly priced.

Arrived early safely. Appreciate the expiry month/year. Excellent quality. Just 1 drop is often good enough. Thank you.
