HOW TO LIQUIFY A THICK ESSENTIAL OIL

- Warm the bottle in your hand. Sometimes heating the bottle will not help, so please tap the bottom of the bottle as this can help release the oil.

If that doesn't work:
- Place the bottle in a small ziploc bag and empty the air as much as possible (to protect the label and to prevent the bag from floating), then put the bag in a larger container of hot water (not boiling) to warm it gently for about 5 to 10 minutes. And that's it, it comes out of the dropper!
- This procedure will have to be repeated each time before use because the oil will become thick again.
- Avoid using a microwave oven as it may overheat and deteriorate the oil.
- Tips and tricks: You can remove the dropper and use a pipette to extract drops or a toothpick, a needle to extract the desired amount from the bottle.

Native to Indonesia, Vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioïdes ) is a plant with long, wide, green leaves. Vetivier is commonly used in perfumery for its earthy, smoky scent. It enters into the composition of many men’s fragrances with Eastern, woody, spicy notes. The essential oil extracted from Vetiver Bourbon is obtained by steam distilling its roots.
