Cassia Oil

Cassia Oil, distilled from the aromatic bark of the Cinnamomum cassia tree, is a highly valued essential oil known for its warm, spicy, woody aroma. This oil is obtained through steam distillation. Cassia has been valued in traditional practices for centuries, thanks to its rich, distinctive aroma.

In aromatherapy, Cassia Oil is celebrated for its warming aroma. It's a popular choice for cosmetic and fragrance formulations aimed at creating a rich, comforting atmosphere. Its warming aroma also brings a sense of coziness to aromatic blends.

The composition of Cassia Oil, which includes significant amounts of cinnamaldehyde, contributes to its distinctive warm, spicy texture, making it a popular choice in fragrance formulations.

Common Uses: Beyond its aromatic uses, Cassia Oil is a staple in natural fragrance formulations for its warm scent. It's also used in home fragrance products for its rich, spicy character.

Blends well with: Clove, Orange, Ginger, and Frankincense. These complementary oils enhance Cassia Oil's warm character, creating blends that are rich and comforting.

Aromatic Scent: Cassia Oil has a distinctive warm, spicy scent with a woody undertone, evoking the rich essence of cinnamon bark.

Cassia oil smells like cinnamon, only warmer, drier and more pungent, with a sweet, spicy heart and a faint woody depth. The tree is a close relative of cinnamon, and its bark is the source of the cassia cinnamon sold in the spice aisle. The oil is used in tiny amounts to give perfumery, home fragrance and festive blends a rich, spiced character, and it pairs well with orange, clove and vanilla. For aromatic and external use only; always dilute well in a carrier oil before any skin use.
