The scent of aniseed essential oil is best known for its similarity to liquorice, and is often compared to that of star anise or fennel. In actual fact, aniseed is much closer related to plants such as parsley and celery.

Aniseed oil is a highly antibacterial and antifungal oil, with special benefits for skin. It is also a great home cleaning product.

Aniseed oil is known to positively affect our hormones, boosting low mood with a brightening effect. It has even been used as a home remedy for the hot flashes accompanying menopause.

Our 100% Pure Aniseed Essential Oil has a warm, sweet scent with spicy notes that it is very similar to the smell of black liquorice. It is distilled from the seeds of the anise plant, native to Egypt.

Anise should not be confused with star anise – although similar in name and scent, the two are entirely separate plants.
