CASSIA

We've resisted offering this spicy-scented oil for a long time, but requests keep coming in for it, so here it is. Sometimes called Chinese Cinnamon, Cassia is softer scented than true Cinnamon Bark. Debi says it smells just like Dentyne Gum, to her nose.

Cassia's chemical constituents should make it a powerful germ killer, possibly useful in a diffuser blend.  

WARNING: We do not recommend Cassia's use in any topical blends because it is a hazardous oil, a dermal and mucous membrane irritant, a known sensitizer, and possible dermal toxin, easily absorbed into the skin.

**For other possible oils to avoid, please see our essential oil contraindications page.

Blends with: Citrus, wood notes, and other spices.
