No harm, but don’t smell too much at the same time otherwise you can be away with the fairies…

Essential oils are highly concentrated liquids that can be harmful if not used carefully. Implementing aromatherapy into your lifestyle shouldn’t cause paranoia or undue worry. By treating essential oils as medicines and following the steps outlined below, you will be well on your way to safely enjoying the many benefits that aromatherapy can offer
But the smell is natural so…

I imagine that there can be harm in being obsessed with doing anything…. but, in this case, I don’t see any harm. Best wishes

i dont see why? however you have to be careful of certain essential oils, because they can be quite irritating to the sinusis and the skin~~read up about them before you use them~~

Nope, it’s totally ok as long as you don’t get high off it, and it doesn’t cause health problems

I think we could have used a little more information here.
WHICH essential oils makes all the difference in the world. Plus, any medical conditions or special circumstances.
If you are truly "obsessed" with smelling something, you may be abusing the product, which will have consequences.
There are many essential oils and they are NOT HARMLESS, especially in excess. They are MEDICINES and should be treated as such.
Some are specifically dangerous if you have certain medical conditions. For example, Rosemary, Hyssop, Sage & Thyme can aggravate high blood pressure. Juniper is contraindicated in kidney disease.
There is a whole LIST of oils to avoid during pregnancy. Some of the more common ones are: Basil, Cinnamon, Cedar. Nutmeg is especially potent and can be borderline addictive.
On the other hand, if by "obsessed" you mean they make you feel good and you sniff them 5 or 6 times a day and the oils you are talking about are Orange or Lavender or Rose, you are simply enjoying one of the pleasant side effects of concentrated scents.
I recommend you get a written guide to essential oil use, and refer to it before purchasing or using your oils. Don’t rely only on the advice of a massage therapist because I’ve seen them make serious mistakes.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and this includes aromatherapy, if you go through the set of answers you will find that i have already answered this question, If you can’t find me the answer is YES, it is dangerous.
