Botanical Name: Lycium Barbarum L Chinense

Origin: France

Deep red in colour and very thick so if you are planning on using this in therapy I would advise submerging the jar in a bowl of warm water for 15-20 minutes, it will then be a much easier liquid to work with.

Goji Berry Absolute is packed with nutrients, contains a high proportion of beta carotene, something we would commonly associate with Carrot Seed Oil plus it contains sought after nutrients such as selenium, tryptophan and soleucine along with vitamins B6, C and E which may explain why it is known as the ‘Happy Berry’. As such I advised this oil as an alternative to Neroli True to a therapist to treat depression in one of her patients and the feedback was very encouraging as she said her client felt a feeling of pure happiness and contentment running through her soul. Clearly this does not make this conclusive but it is an interesting alternative for treating depression in my opinion, it just requires patience as it will need to be warmed up before you can work with it.

I find it blends very well with my own favourite fruity aromas – Green Mandarin and Cedrat Essential Oils.
