Some may ask why have I added this as my conventional Himalayan oil is superb and I would agree but I liked the idea of an organic alternative. The smell is much lighter than the conventional grown one I offer and if you are a fan of that, then this will disappoint you. It exudes a sticky sweet scent, very piercing with a dark aura about it. The major constituents are Alpha and Beta Himachalene accounting for 40% of the oil.
