Tinderbox Aniseed Essential Oil
Pimpinella anisum
Aniseed features in the world’s earliest Materia Medica and was prized as a spice to flavour food and beverages, including pernod, absinthe and ouzo.
The aniseed scent is richer and sweeter than Fennel and not as sharp as Star Anise. This small flowering herb Aniseed is closely related to Fennel, and despite its similar scent is quite unrelated to Star Anise.
Star Anise and Fennel pure essential oils are also available.
