Greetings from Toronto, Canada.
Just wanted to say thanks for the great Lime gift oil - it smells wonderful. I was surprised to find the essential oils I ordered arrive so soon - they were only ordered late Thursday night. Looking forward to trying out all the oils and the Frankincense water.
Regards, Wendy Sing Gen
Hello Kobashi people,
Thank you for the wonderful neroli oil! It smells wonderful and I felt calmer just smelling it. Also thank you for the free eucalyptus oil. I like it too. I like the quality of oils I got ( and the speed and care with which they were shipped) and I will certainly add you to my list of essential suppliers.
Best, Kay
Lynda & Scott,
I received my order yesterday. Thank you for the free eucalyptus oil! I immediately tried my new oils. As usual, I was not disappointed with the results! I love the blended oils, and I am glad that they are now on the order form. It is with pleasure that I recommend your site to others, and I look forward to planning my next order!
Sincerely, Maria Camarillo
I truly love your oils! Having all the products listed on the order list is very helpful. Now I can easily order the special blends and other products. I look forward to reading your newsletter.
Sincerely, Olga
Dear Sir or Madam
I am an IFA-registered Aromatherapist, and I have been practising in London since 1998.
I have great respect for the quality of your oils – their ‘energy’ is wonderfully pure and clean (partly, I suspect, as a result of the care and respect you and your suppliers show them in the processing).
Thank you. Kind regards,
Andrew Sherratt
Hi,
I just received my order yesterday, and again, I am amazed at how quick and efficient your service is! Thank you so very much...and for the gift oil as well.
Sincerely,

(order # CF691)
I want to thank you for the quick processing of my order, and the oils arrived well packed and on time according to all of your information. They arrived here in Oregon in 7 days from when you had sent me the email on the 18th when my order had been processed. I was somewhat reluctent to order from overseas, but to my surprise the shipping was cheaper than what it costs me to receive my oils that I order from two states away! The email information and genuine felt concern for my satisfaction was excellent and very welcome, also the prices and quality are also great. Thank you again and I will pass on your good business to others whom I share my great afffection for the life enhancing properties of essential oils! Thanks again,
Pat Campbell
Dear Scott,
I did find the oil stuck in the packing, I apologize and am wondering if this is what happened the other time. I wouldn't dream of not ordering from you because I love your oils!
I am sorry for the confusion!

I received the parcel yesterday. Thank you for your quick delivery. It only 6 days from U.K. to JAPAN !!
Thank you for free oil(CITRONELLA),too.
I will buy again soon.

A friend came over yesterday and we did some "nose" comparisons of yours with other brands--I had already done some myself, but she tested blind and chose yours over the others in almost every case. kudos to you, she willsoon be a new customer. Her daughter may too as she lives in your fair country.

Dear Lynda & Scott,
I am placing another order with you, I liked the oils from my first order so very much! In my first order I received the large chest, which I think is perfect! With the oils I have just ordered, it will also be nearly full!.
~annie
Thank you for a real fast delivery. I love my Neroli-frankincense cream.It feels wonderful on my face. I have sensitive skin and it is very hard to find something that doesn't turn me red. My daughter used the Soap-base with Tea Tree in it. (Just a few drops) She loved it. I also showed my oils to my Naturopathic Dr. I think she should be introduced to a company with nice oils.
Susan, Louisiana
Dear Lynda & Scott
I am really amazed! I placed an online order on Sunday evening and received
the order today, Wednesday! All the oils I purchased are wonderful, and I love the bonus oil you sent, as well. Thank-you so much! You've definitely won me over! A friend had asked me to include an order for herself with
mine, and she is also impressed. You'll be getting return business from both of us!

Hello,
I received the parcel of essential oils about noon today. Thank-you! That is very quick delivery time!! Since I am at work, I only opened a few for a quick aroma indulgence. Wonderful! Yummy to the nose!I will get them home and give them a thorough going over and let you know. So far, so very good!
Thank you very much!

Received this order today. It was a bit quicker this time. I ordered on Saturday and it came today. Thanks for the free eucalyptus oil (good timing my son has a nasty head cold). Thought I should let you know that the sweet almond oil, leaked quite a bit during shipping. The package arrived quite oily. No problem, although it made a bit of a mess, the bottle was mostly still full. Thanks, Barb Ernst (I look forward to my next shipment - already on order).
Dear Barb
Thanks for getting back to us. Sorry about the Almond leak. It may have been over filled. Airplane pressure and temperature changes can cause expansion and contraction. Fortunately this is a rare occurrence. We are doing everything in our control to stop this event. Perhaps a combination of elements, including over zealous tightening of the bottles, can give pressures the extra edge.
best regards, Scott
hi, just want you to know that i had placed an order before this one. i was waiting to see how it went before i ordered more. well, i want to say that i was so pleased. the order arrived promptly, before i expected it, actually. the oils seem to be of the very best quality. i have purchased oils in the past from other sources. because i was so pleased i placed another order. at this point i am very happy with the service and quality of these products. ........bonnie bierly...usa.

Thank you guys fo all your info. I don`t think I`ll have problem recieving the oils, never had before.I love your oils. So far they best on the market for me. My husband order from the other company last week to surprise me and I ask him to" please cancel now I only go with kobashi " : ) And I also heal a lots of people with them here in Central America for free, because they so poor. I can`t charge them. And it`s so fulfilling! Thank you. Good to do business with you!

Dear Tatiana
Thank you for your reply. It's is very good to hear from you. The world needs more people like you.
Hi Folks,
I received my oils in exactly seven days from the date of my order. This
quite surprised me as the post to Bahrain is notoriously slow. I appreciate
the Lemongrass oil gift which was a very pleasant surprise as it is one of
my favourite oils and I was going to be ordering it next. All of the oils
are lovely. They have a remarkable intensity which really bossoms on
vapourising.
Every now and then, I come across a company that gives me a great vibe. I
have to say I got a wonderful feeling from your site and appreciate your
sense of ethics, and commitment to nature, your product and your clients. I dont think these things can be faked.
I have already recommended your site to a close friend who has remarked on the better prices you offer and was impressed with the reasonable delivery period.
Kind regards

I wanted to let you know I received the oils I ordered on Feb. 18, I received them within 6 days in good condition. They smell very nice, I'll write later after using them for awhile. I have quite an extensive collection going that are Young Living Oils, the cost of your oils are much less. I like the fact that you show the GC/MS testing on each label.
I don't want to say anything bad about Young Living Oils because I do think they are so much nicer then the ones I was getting at the local Health Food Store. So the jury is still out. I'm very glad I found your web-site, and I would like to know how I can find ingredients and pricing for other products you sell, like the shampoo, oil bases, moisturizers, etc. I have searched the web quite a bit and I can only find your essential oils. Please direct me to the proper site. Thanks again for your prompt service, I was out of Patchouly for about a week, so I was glad to see it arrive!
Back at you soon. Debbi
P.S. You are welcome to use this e-mail on your testimonials if you like, I'll be keeping in touch with you. Please don't print my e-mail address though.
Outstanding! Thank you!!!! I can't believe you were able to accommodate this request for a change (I made a mistake when I ordered and meant to order the Organic Lavender)......Thanks for your attentiveness and stellar customer service! I can't wait to try your product! Sincerely, Barbara Laible
Hi! This email is to let you know I received my order today.. Please ignore previous email which a copy of is attached. Thank you once again. The oils are helping me to sleep and stay calm at work, as well as invigorate me when I need it. Thank you for making a truly pure product. I'll be spreading the word as I teach others about aromatherapy. I'm am happy to discover these wonderful gifts of nature. Loire
Just want to say thanks so much for filling my order so quickly. The essential order arrived in perfect shape and in time to use for one of my clients. She was delighted.
Thanks for being there when we need you and do keep up the good work.
My best to you,

Dear Linda
Thank you for your reply. glad to be of service.
sorry!
i had another email from you. it is taken care of.
i will say that this is the second time i have ordered. i have used another company's oils for years. i do not like the politics of that company. it was very frustrating loving their oils so much, but disliking dealing with them. i have searched and searched for comparable oils. yours are the ones that i find the closest to them.
thank you!

Hello everyone,
I must say that I was so excited when my order came right before I was to work on a few people in NJ. I have been doing bodywork with essential oils for almost 5 years now, and have been having wonderful results with the oils I had been using. I do body/mind defusions and the oils are the catalyst for the work. I must say, that this time, whew!! My clients and I IMMEDIATELY felt the difference with your oils. It was phenomenal!! As soon as I started the bodywork, well, I have to say, that I will be ordering the oils from you from now on. They are so powerful! I have never had such a potent quality before. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And I am sure that my clients thank you too.

Thank you for notifying me about my order . It is very reassuring when you buy through internet .
I am looking forward to receiving it . I will certainly give you some comments . It is important to rely on serious suppliers when we know that essential oils are such powerful tools , and that some people sell adulterated products , just for easy money . Your web site is truly impressive , and smells the truth . ( Another precious oil ! ) Hope my intuition is safe . I read a few letters from your consumers and I wish I could be one more happy one beyond others .
Best regards,

As you see by the reply by :
Gary Van Etten
U.S. Customs Service
Port of Chicago
the problem has been solved.
Please have your brother keep the the customs held back order when it arrives for any trouble that may have been caused.
Mr. Ballard,
The U.S. Customs Laboratory looked at the bottles and said right away that
the products were indeed essential oils.
The Customs chemists said they did not need to perform any analytical test
on the bottles, so a formal laboratory report will not be issued.
So let me apologize on the behalf of the Customs Service. The inspectors
should not have seized the merchandise. The package was sent to our
Foreign Mail Unit today so that it may be routed to the individual who
placed the order.
I will tell our Foreign Mail Unit inspectors not to seize any Kobashi
Essential Oils.
Gary Van Etten

Dear Mr. Gary Van Etten
Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I understand that a customs inspector cannot have a complete knowledge of every product which enters the country. I am glad there is someone doing their best to protect the public.

Dear Kobashi Staff-
You requested feedback following receipt of my first order with you.
I had ordered your beautiful Musk Rose absolute which I find incredibly subtle and unique, and definitely worth ordering again (and again...). A while ago I became intrigued with the very idea of Rosa Moschata as, aside from its atypical (for roses) characteristics, it is not a commonly offered product and I'm very attracted to the uncommon (across the board actually---I'm a visual artist as well as a budding perfumer).
I had previously ordered what was named Musk Rose from a North American source. I was experimenting so it wasn't until after the fact that I became concerned that the product hadn't included a Latin name. It was a pleasant enough product but it had a powerful overtone of amber, and I couldn't get any direct answers when I inquired about its constitution.
Kobashi's approach to LIFE is reflected in your marketing and in your products. I have zero doubts about the authenticity of your Musk Rose. It's plainly a member of the rose family while being profoundly distinct from the more readily available roses I'm acquainted with: damascena and centifolia.
I love the fact that Kobashi is so adamant in its position against animal testing, chemical impurities, etc. This stand is entirely parallel to my own (I'm basically an animal-rights activist [no paint tossing or violence, however! Mainly E-Activism] and I reside with several critters).
I also think that it's very welcoming and generous of you to give your 1st-time customers a full-sized 'gift'. In my case it was a delicious bottle of Citrus Sinensis---Thank You !.
I hope this is the kind of feedback you were looking for.
Until next time,
April D. Yakimovich
Love that you cared to write.
Dear Scott, I have purchased aromatherapy from you in the past and I am so pleased with the quality of your products. I have since been spoiled and can turn to only you for quality oils. I respect your company's high Eco-standards and your care and responsibility to our precious earth and its creatures holds it's weight in gold. (or should I say Melissa?) I've just placed my second order with you and I am so excited to receive it! Thanks so much, Theresa DeNicolag
Hi Scott,
I'm really excited ! I got my package this morning. I was hoping to use the return address to send you the holistic magazine I was telling you about. Its very hard to read you return address. Can you write back with the correct address. Its not quite an American address and I wouldnt want to send it to the wrong place. I also wanted you to know that there was no poster in my box. I thought the box was rather small for a laminated poster to be inside. It wasnt in there. Will I be receiving one in a different package?
I love the wooden storage boxes. They are great ! My curiosity has hit the roof. Thanks for shipping so soon. I'll look forward to your reply to get the magazine off to you.
Thank Again!
