This lamp oil is used to ensure your diya stays alight even after a long time as you dip the wick in it and then light it. It can be used in traditional clay diyas and in hanging deepaks as it enables the wick to burn slowly thereby illuminating the space and purifying it. The lamp oil has a delicate and soft smell. Even though this oil is pure, it is created specifically for lighting lamps and so cannot be used in cooking. Purchase the lamp oil from Giri UK.
