5.0 out of 5 stars Good set - but read carefully the review
Premise:First and foremost, this is a fragrance oil set. It does contain essential oils among all the ingredients, but are not 100% pure essential oils.Being synthetic, some fragrance may have a more artificial scent than others.Fun fact:I am a long time consumer of both fragrance and essential oils. I always check the labels and when I got this set, I noticed something.In one of the pictures, you can see how the oils produced for this brand have the same manufacturer of another brand.While this shouldn't be a surprise and it doesn't break any rules, it surely explain why many of these fragrance sets on Bolo smell very similar to each other.However, for once, this is not entirely the case.I didn't know what to expect from this one and I was skpetical at first, but my curiosity and the relatively cheap price eventually took over, so I bought it.Package is nice, comes with a leaflet and the box is sturdy, doesn't feel cheap. This was a good start.It has 12 bottles 10ML each.The oils were tested on an electric oil diffuser and a oil burner (using a candle).All the scores are based on my personal preference.Vetiver: Ingredient listed are rosehip oil, grape seed oil and vetiver oil. This is the first one I tried and it does mimic vetiver decently. It's light in tone and doesn't smell too intense with 2 drops for 20 ML of water.Score: 6/10Sandal wood: Ingredients listed are sandalwood essential oil and sunflower seed oil. It very mild and volatile, not too intense. However, I prefer it this way as it smell more natural.Score: 6.5/10Black pepper: Ingredients listed are black pepper essential oils, ginkgo and evening primrose oil. Very light and with a mild pepperish after scent. Not bad for quite an extravagant fragrance.Score: 6/10Oakmoss: Ingredients listed are vetiver, cedarwood and sunflower seed oil. Rather pungent and peculiar. It does mimic oakmoss but I don't personally like it. It's purely personal taste.Score: 5/10Cypress: Ingredients listed are cypress and sunflower oil. The nature of this scent is very subtle, even in its natural environment, so surely not easy to replicate. I find it a bit too weak for my taste, meaning you may need to add one drop more based on your preference.Score 4.5/10Sweet tobacco: Ingredients listed are sweet tobacco, vanilla and grape seed oil. This is one of my personal favorite. It's mostly vanilla with a hint of choccolate (my personal guess) but it's nice to smell.Score 7/10Teakwood: Ingredients listed are teak and sunflower seed oil. Probably one of my least favorite due to its weak, almost non-perceived, scent. However, just as for cypress, I prefer very light scent than heavier synthetic ones.Score 5/10Leather: Ingredients listed are cypress, sandalwood, patchouli and grape seed oil.This one is indeed my favorite of the whole set. Bear in mind that leather is by nature perceived differently due to its composition and personal sense of smell.The closest thing I can think of when smelling this one is a pair of good leather boots mixed with a sweet after scent. I know, I have weird taste.Score 8/10Frankincense: Ingredients are frankincense oil and sunflower seeds oil. This one is probably the least strong of the whole set, nearly impossible to detect when diluited.Score 3.5/10Black Sprouce: Ingredients are picea mariana leaf oil and sunflower oil. Not too bad, picea mariana belongs to pine's family and it reflects the nature of these trees. Resembles pine forest. Not too strong not too weak.Score 6/10Bay Rum: Ingredients listed are bay rum essential oil, grape seed oil and virgin olive oil.With this being the strongest of the whole set, either you're gonna love it or hate it.No middle ground for this very extravagant fragrance. It does smell a bit more synthetic than the others but I still liked it.Score 6/10Bitter coffee: Ingredients arabic coffee seeds and sunfower seed oil. This is probably the most true-to-its-name scent of the whole set. It does indeed smells like coffee ground and you're into this kind of scent, you wont be disappointed.Score 7/10Conclusions:All in all the set is good value for money. I can see why they called it Gentleman and surely there are 4 fragrances with a precise "identity".Leather, Sweet tobacco, Bitter Coffee, Bay Rum are the best of the whole set.Black pepper, black sprouce, sandawood, oakmoss, vetiver mid tierCypress, teakwood, frankincense, low tier.The oils do not smell all similar to each other and it's a nice set for fragrance oil nerds like me, who are tired of the same old super common scent.Recommended as gift for people who have some knowledge on how to use fragrance oils.If this is your first time using them, go for more classic scents such as lavender or peppermint.I am overall pleased with this set and I will buy another different set from Salubrito's to test it out each oil's identity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great selection
Love this set of oils. You really only need 4 or 5 drops for a good diffusion of the scent in a room.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value!!
Smell lovely - great value - thanks.
I thought it was the new diffuser, it wasnt - it was the oils
I got a new diffuser for Christmas so I bought these oils. I put the oil in diffuser #1 and never got any scent, no matter how much I put in there. So we thought the diffuser was faulty. It was returned and she bought me another one. I put the oils in diffuser #2. Still no scents. I cleaned the new #2 diffuser as directed this morning and added the oils again. Still no scent. After the water went down I decided to try my old oils in the diffuser. And NOW there is scent. All along it was these oils. I do not recommed. It had me returning diffusers for no good reason.
Good smell.
While not the strongest smell.. I like the choices and the quantity.
Amazing value
This was amazing for the price. I like every single smell, even the candy corn, which smells even better when diffusing/warm. It's not my favorite, just a pleasant surprise.
They smell pretty good
I liked all of them for the most part. They have an underlying scent I'm not sure about. I tend to have issues with certain scents though.
Smell good
I was very surprised but the Halloween set actually smells pretty good!
