It very clearly is, but anyone who is worried just get yourself some lavender essential oil. During the black plague the morticians wore gloves that they always doused with lavender oil to cover up the smell of death. Very few, if any, morticians got sick. Please note - never ingest essential oil - just apply it to your hands and the soles of your feet. Also note, lavender and tea tree essential oils are the only ones you can apply "neat" (directly to the skin), all other EOs must be diluted in a carrier oil. Herbalist over and out.
