50ml Star Anise Essential Oil – Illicium Verum | Steam Distilled China

Discover the rich, sweet warmth of pure Star Anise Essential Oil, steam distilled from the fruit of Illicium Verum sourced from China. Bold, intensely aromatic and unmistakably distinctive — with a deep, sweet liquorice-like warmth that is both comforting and exotic — Star Anise is a fascinating and highly characterful addition to any aromatherapy or home fragrance collection.

Also known as Chinese Star Anise, Illicium Verum is the beautiful star-shaped fruit of a small evergreen tree native to China and Vietnam, and one of the most iconic spice ingredients in Asian cuisine and traditional culture. Its essential oil captures the fruit's characteristic sweet, aniseed warmth in concentrated form — a bold, spicy-sweet fragrance that adds real depth and intrigue to any aromatic blend.

With its warm, exotic and deeply aromatic character, Star Anise Essential Oil is a popular choice for diffusing, natural perfumery and spice-forward aromatherapy blending, where it adds a distinctive, warming sweetness to any composition. This 50ml size is ideal for professional formulators, therapists and those who use Star Anise regularly in their practice or product making.
