ATLAS CEDARWOOD, ATLAS  and HIMALAYAN CEDARWOOD Essential Oils

ATLAS CEDARWOOD

Cedrus atlantica, Morocco, ORG Steam distilled, Wood

Excellent for easing the discomfort of any sort of respiratory ailment, either inhaled, or as a chest rub.

Often used in treating dandruff and/or oily skin and scalp and in blends to combat cellulite.

Its strong antibacterial action is often recommended for treating bladder and kidney infections, and cystitis (use in sitz bath or compress.)

Emotionally, Cedarwood oil can calm anxiety, and help diffuse fear. I've used it in 'confidence building' blends. It also can enhance spirituality.

Excellent for insecticide blends! This is the Cedarwood that your grandmother's Cedar Chest was crafted from. Hang a bit in your closet to keep moths away from your wool clothes.

Blends with: all the citrus oils, Cardamom, Cistus, Frankincense, Lavender, Myrrh, Patchouli, with Vetiver and Sandalwood, Rose, Neroli, Rosemary, Basil, Eucalyptus and Chamomile. An excellent base note for blends containing the 'sharper' citrus oils, and nice in a man's blend.

HIMALAYAN CEDARWOOD

Cedrus deodora Wildcrafted, India, steam distilled from the wood.

I hope by now everyone knows how I love our traditional Atlas Cedarwood. This new Indian Cedar is, if anything, aromatically sweeter. A softer note, almost a touch of floral or fruit, yet with the spiritual strength and support of all true Cedarwood.  It is sweetly resinous, lovely alone in the aroma lamp or in blends where you want a soft wood note.
