Essential Oils


Cabreuva Wood Essential Oil
This is a stunning smelling oil, utterly gorgeous, pale yellow in colour, has a thin viscosity, it is warm and sweet, slightly floral and oh so beautiful, it makes my heart sing. This has very similar chemistry to Pemou oil plus Cabreuva is also really cheap making it a superb low cost fixative for any natural perfumer. This really is so underrated, which is most surprising considering how complex and stimulating the aroma is. More Info >>
Cade Berries ORGANIC Essential Oil
The 3 major constituents of Cade Berry are Mycrene, Alpha Pinene and Limonene accounting for about 84% of the oil. The smell is clean and fresh with a pine-like odour and I also detect quite a strong fruity element. Certified Organic. More Info >>
Cade Wood Essential Oil
Cade is also known as Juniper tar and is produced by dry distillation of the twigs and branches which others may refer to as the heartwood. Theraputically this has stimulant and sedative properties but this oil really does need to be diluted heavily and would be better blended with other oils before use. More Info >>
Cajaput Essential Oil
Cajaput Essential Oil also known as Cajeput Essential Oil is best used in inhalations for treating the common cold and other respiratory infections, and it is used in a number of proprietary cold treatments. Used in a steam inhalation it will effectively clear the nasal passages while inhibiting the bacteria that proliferate in the mucus formed during colds and flu, and which can lead to catarrh and sinusitis. It also has pain-killing properties which are useful in reducing the discomfort of sore throats and headaches that accompany colds. More Info >>

Cedar Leaf WILD CRAFTED
Interesting, confusing and very dangerous is how I sum up Cedar Leaf.Safety Data: Not to be used in aromatherapy at all. Only potential use is for natural perfumer. This oil is extracted from the White Cedar tree in Canada by steam distillation of the twigs and leafs and is clear in colour. This tree is not related to the Cedrus genesus which one might expect from the name. Instead it is actually botanically related to Cypress but regardless of the relation I would never ever use this oil for aromatherapy or oil burning purposes, as the natural chemistry makes this oil very dangerous.

Cedarwood ATLAS
Cedarwood Atlas Essential Oil is a powerful antiseptic, used particularly for bronchial and urinary tract infections. It is very effective for cystitis and vaginal infections and discharges (always remembering the need for medical investigation to identify the cause). It is mucolytic (i.e, it breaks down mucus) which makes it doubly useful in treating catarrhal conditions, especially chronic bronchitis. More Info >>
Cedarwood HIMALAYAN
Cedarwood Himalayan Essential Oil is simply exquisite in smell and therapeutic use and we recommend this very highly to everyone. Also known as Tibetan Cedarwood, deeply spiritual oil that is often used in meditation. The aroma is a celebration of earthy, musky, sweet, dry and spicy notes. We love this oil! More Info >>

Cedarwood ORGANIC Essential Oil
Some may ask why have I added this as my conventional Himalayan oil is superb and I would agree but I liked the idea of an organic alternative. The smell is much lighter than the conventional grown one I offer and if you are a fan of that, then this will disappoint you. It exudes a sticky sweet scent, very piercing with a dark aura about it. The major constituents are Alpha and Beta Himachalene accounting for 40% of the oil. More Info >>
Cedarwood VIRGINIA
The aroma of Virginia Cedarwood is lighter than Atlas Cedarwood, it is highly antiseptic and with great astringent properties it is useful for treating oily skin. Cedarwood Virginia Essential oil active principles include cedrol, cadinene and other sesquiterpenes, and several terpenic hydrocarbons. Virginian Cedarwood Essential Oil relieves muscular tension and is used in the treatment of arthritis and rheumatism. More Info >>
Cedrat Essential Oil
Cedrat is a fruit that is commonly grown and sold in Sicily. Only very small amounts of Cedrat Essential Oil are produced these days which makes it all the more special I feel. The aroma is sublime, pungent, zesty and sweet which is due to an interesting natural chemistry, it is packed with 'Citral' thus very uplifting and super on an oil burner to help banish depression.

Celery Seed Essential Oil promotes the flow of urine and clears the body of toxins. Decreases puffiness due to water retention and is therefore very good in skincare products. More Info >>
