Notice what nostril the horse goes to and his reaction to the oil. Horses that like the oil may flare their nostrils, go for the bottle and even try to even nuzzle it out of your hand! They also may curl their lip (flehmen) in glee!
They sometimes will smell with one particular nostril then go to the other nostril, so pay attention! My mare always smells oils with her left nostril first, and then goes to the right nostril. This makes sense to me, because she is very intuitive and processes things emotionally first (left side), then physically (right side).
For instance, this is important, because if your horse smells an oil from the left nostril first for a certain physical condition, then it shows that there is an emotional component that led to the physical issue. And the emotional component should be addressed first. The good news is that the oil addresses the emotional component!
If the horse pins his ears back or turns away, then that particular oil is not for them and try something different.
