DESCRIPTION
Cinnamon Bark (Ceylon) Essential Oil is steam distilled from the inner bark of the Cinnamomum zeylanicum tree, native to Sri Lanka. Harvested after 2-3 years of growth, when the bark matures to a deep reddish-brown, the cinnamon tree stands about 5-6.5 feet tall. The oil extracted from this prized bark is celebrated for its robust, perfume-like fragrance that closely mirrors the familiar scent of ground cinnamon, yet with more intensity and depth.
Cinnamon's warm, spicy aroma has been treasured for centuries, not only in culinary applications but also in personal care and home fragrance products. The Cinnamomum zeylanicum tree’s history in Sri Lanka dates back centuries, with its essential oil now being a staple in aromatherapy and skin care. Its inviting scent and versatility make it a must-have for formulators looking to add depth and warmth to their products.
