Thanks for the input everyone. I just wanted a few opinions - didn't know

if I was thinking realistically or just have become very cynical and

cautious when it comes to doctors since I've dealt with them for so long.

But that was my gut reaction - this is not a good thing at all. But from

what I understand, they are still going through with it as long as the

cardio doc clears him. I don't see a good outcome on this.

Thanks all -

Teri

New Directions Aromatics (I'm placing an order with them as we speak) but

I'm also going to give Eden Botanicals a try this time (have only ordered

Amber from them).

I got this e-mail just as I was about to place an order with another company

- thanks to you, I ordered from LN instead and saved $27.19!

They do have a $50 minimum order though; which is no big deal if you're

ordering a bunch of stuff but might not be so good for one thing.

They do have a $50 minimum order though; which is no big deal if you're

ordering a bunch of stuff but might not be so good for one thing.

I got this e-mail just as I was about to place an order with another company

- thanks to you, I ordered from LN instead and saved $27.19!

Heya

 

It is always good to try and sample before buying as quality can be so

variable.  Great to have savings as long as when you receive your botanic you

are happy with the quality.

You're right about that! I did order from this company YEARS ago but it's

been awhile. who do you usually order from? I definitely want the best

quality for the price. I did a lot of comparison shopping yesterday - I was

at it all day long. I ordered from several different vendors, one of which

was Liberty Naturals. I had one last order for Sandalwood, Jasmine and a few

other EO's that I ended up placing with them. The amounts were not all that

large (one ounce or less) so we'll see.

Hi Adam, Folks....

Liberty also has an Australian sandalwood absolute that's less expensive

than the essential oil....

Bear in mind, Liberty has a $50 minimum order....You can mix and match

things to reach the $50...

I am a little bit of a Sandlewood junky....the Australian is ghosty,

compared to the Indian varieties, but what it is, it's nice........

The nice thing about Sandalwood, at least the Indian stuff, is that it

gets *better* as it ages....I haven't had Aussie Sandlewood long enough

to know if that applies to it, also, but suspect that's the case, too....

I've got some Indian going on 2 decades....differing sources....

So...I would say, it's hard to buy too much of the stuff.....

I have tried many EO providers and I find Ne Directions excellent. It had good

prices, very good selection and very good service. Highly recommended!

Eden Botanicals has very good quality and selection, sort of high in it's

prices...

Hope this helps...
