I love the smell of fresh cilantro, however this EO does not remind me of it. Not quite what I imagined but still it's nice. Paired it with bergamot in solid lotion and it turned out lovely.
Have tried others' coriander and this one is head and shoulders above anything so far. Tried it with cinnamon and a touch of ginger and it was stunning. Such a unique oil it's hard to describe, but it is complex enough that you have to be careful with blends as it is quite complex on its own. What it does in soap with orange alone, lemon or lime alone is also stunning (by that I mean just orange/coriander etc). Your customers will crawl up your arm to get to it. My biggest problem with it is that I want to keep it all for myself.
This oil has a very fruity quality for a middle note procured from seed. It smells great blended with citrus, especially orange!
