    Star anise (also known as anise star) is a fruit native to Vietnam and China. It has the shape of a star with seeds tucked inside. Star anise has been used in Chinese medicine since antiquity, most notably helping with cases of rheumatism.

    Anise star essential oil is considered to assist in expanding lung capacity, calming overworked muscles, working as an antiseptic, and an overall tonic to health. It contains anethole, the same compound that is found in the non-related anise, which gives it a similar scent. It is commonly used in toothpaste formulations, soaps, personal care formulations, and perfumes.
