FNWL has an unscented (yeah right) amla oil.

My question about amla has always been why one would use the oil over the powder and vice versa.

Is one better than the other?

Yep. I got both. I've gotten powder from FNWL and from mehandi.com and I like the FNWL powder a little better, but they've got some ridiculous shipping charges. I order in bulk so I only have to pay their crazy shipping once. They also have a $25 small order fee. I think if your total is less than $22 or something like that.

It's good amla tho...

I ordered mine from Qhemet Biologics (its kinda heavy and has a slight scent) but I've been through 2 jars and so far soo good.

I think just depends on what you're doing with it. I make amla tea rinses from the powder to pour over my braids after I've washed them. I use amla oil as a hot oil/pre-poo. The tea doesn't stink. The oil does.

I also use the leftover pulp (from the rinses) as a facial scrub.

Do you have any Indian stores in your area? That is where I found my oil.
