Our opinion Underneath its apparent fragility, this flower gives rise to a lively and powerful essential oil. Precautions for use Do not use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or in young children. Do not use in epileptics (however, the neurotoxicity of diketones appears to be low). Not recommended in case of coagulation disorders or if you are taking anticoagulant treatment. No oral route without the advice of a practitioner. Do not apply to irritated or infected skin. Risk of allergy (limonene, linanol): take care not to overdose in mixtures. An elbow test is recommended prior to any skin application (min 48 hours before use). Avoid contact with the eyes. Keep out of reach of children.
