Default "Danish oil" vs "Wood finishing oil"

What is the difference between Mylands "Danish oil" and "Wood finishing
oil"?


Are these useful names, or just brand names?


We have a kitchen counter (iroko) and a set of doors (oak) thatt both
need oiling.


In my experience (I tend to use Liberon products) there isn't a huge
difference between 'Danish' and 'Finishing' oils. Danish appears to give a
glossier finish (although generally more satin than gloss) than the
finishing oil. In terms of use there is very little between them. These
days I tend to use finishing oil for almost everything.

Hope this helps.
