Bitter almond oil is derived from the seeds of the bitter almond tree. It has a strong, distinct aroma and flavor that is commonly used in soaps and cosmetics. However, it is important to note that bitter almond oil contains a toxic compound called amygdalin, which can be harmful if consumed in large amounts. As such, it is typically used in small quantities and with caution. This 50ml bottle of bitter almond oil is perfect for those who want to add a unique and intense almond flavor to their dishes or craft their own personal care products.
