Description
Widely regarded as one of the strongest and most effective eucalyptus oils, this variety contains a high proportion of cineole—one of its key aromatic components.
The crisp, refreshing scent of eucalyptus is familiar as a feature note in products like Vicks VapoRub, and it is commonly associated with use in respiratory-focused blends.
When using eucalyptus with children, we recommend Eucalyptus radiata, which has a lower cineole content.
