Just Order Samples from Liberty Naturals

January 16, 2010

I have been eyeing Liberty Naturals ever since I saw them as a reference in

Mandy Aftel's book " Essence and Alchemy " but had not ordered from them until

yesterday. I ordered a sample of Tonka Bean, Ambrette, Costus Root, Guaiacwood

(actually 1/2oz is the smallest they sell on this product), Narcissus,

Osmanthus, Saffron, and Blond Tobacco. I've never had a chance to experience

these essences on their own so I am excited about them. I do have a question on

Narcissus however. I've read about it's profound effect on the nervous system,

causing paralysis unless used diluted at around 2%. Does anyone else have more

info on this product and how it should be used properly in perfumes? Thanks.
