A package of unwashed SWEDISH camel wool, fluffy as clouds ❤️ about 5-7 grams in a cellophane bag

No chemicals, just wool. The camel sheds its winter fur and then we take care of it 😊 and the camel continues to graze in its pasture.

Note: May contain small traces of shavings and straw.


Camel wool in Nosework – guide

  • Take a small tuft of camel wool (about pea size).

  • Drop a very small amount of hydrosol/essential oil onto the wool, or roll the wool in a scented patch on metal/glass for a weaker scent.

  • Let the wool air out for a few minutes before use.

  • Place the wool in a scent holder that ventilates but doesn't leak too much scent.
