  1. Yes, FNWL is one of the few suppliers that sell unscented Monoi. And as you can see from the reviews, it hardly smells at all. I got a sample from one of the authenitic suppliers in Tahiti and sure enough, the scent was neglible. The whole thing is really just a marketing ploy to sell coconut oil for big bucks!
  2. I hate to burst the bubble but if you dig a bit deeper you will discover that the delightful scent is actually from added fragrance oil (despite the claims of many sellers). I have purchased truly natural Monoi and it hardly smells at all (something confirmed by people who have sampled it in Tahiti). It is a very clever marketing ploy because is it simply scented coconut oil (that may or may not have macerated Tiare flowers in it - either way, not enough to have any effect). And yes, I was fooled and purchased a gallon of "Organic Monoi" for over $100.....
  3. The SOS Extreme Concentration is undiluted and the other concentrations are diluted, probably with dipropylene glycol. It's a deceptive marketing ploy that a lot of people seem confused by
  4. Hi Belinda, the SOS and Ultra Grades are diluted with a carrier (probably di-propylene glycol) so unless you are using them for a body oil and don't want to choose your carrier there is no point in buying anything other than Extreme (which is simply Fragrance Oil like most other companies sell!). I buy a lot from SOS and always get sniffie samples first. I have some really nice ones from them - especially dupes - but have found their fruity ones to be mostly horrible. I don't know why that is
