- Aromatherapy: It can be used through aromatherapy diffusion, aromatherapy burner and diffuser wood volatilization. The calming woody scent can effectively soothe tense nerves, calm restless mind and dispel stress and anxiety. It is suitable for use during meditation, yoga, reading, focused work, and relaxation before bed, helping to create a peaceful, transparent, and calming atmosphere.
- Fragrance: As a core ingredient in classic woody fragrances, its unique mountain cedar aroma can be harmoniously paired with sandalwood, agarwood, citrus, and floral essential oils. A small amount can be added to high-end perfumes, scented candles, calming incense sticks, and wooden sachets to infuse the formula with a calm and sophisticated foundation, enriching the fragrance layers and texture, and suiting a low-key, elegant, quiet, and restrained fragrance style.
- Nursing: After being diluted with carrier oils, it can be used for body massage, scalp care, and body-part soothing. A skin sensitivity test should be performed beforehand. Massaging the shoulders, neck and back with carrier oils helps relieve muscle soreness and tightness; massaging the scalp nourishes it, regulates oil and moisture, and improves oily scalp and dry hair, meeting natural and gentle care needs and suitable for various skin types.
- We select mature cedar trees from high-altitude areas in the Himalayas, using the heartwood as core raw material. We cultivate them using natural, wild methods, far from industrial pollution, ensuring no pesticide residues, artificial fragrances, pigments or preservatives, thus locking in the natural activity and pure flavor of the raw material from the source.
- GC-MS test report is available, which clearly indicates the content, purity, and impurity test results of core active ingredients, strictly complying with international natural essential oil quality standards.
- Extracted using steam distillation process, the distillation temperature and time are precisely controlled to preserve the natural aroma, core active ingredients, and woody flavor of cedar to the greatest extent possible, avoiding the loss of effective substances and deterioration of aroma, and ensuring that the efficacy and fragrance of the essential oil reach their best state.
- Concentration Warning: Pure essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin. It is recommended to dilute them with carrier oils such as jojoba, sweet almond, grapeseed or rosehip oil.
- Sensitivity Test: Before first use, apply a small amount of the diluted essential oil to the inside of your wrist or behind your ear and leave it for 24 hours. If there are no adverse reactions such as redness, swelling, itching, or stinging, then you can use it normally.
- Contraindicated Population: Pregnant women, breastfeeding women, infants, and those allergic to cedar or cypress plants should use with caution. People with low blood pressure, epilepsy, chronic diseases, or those currently taking medication should consult a professional aromatherapist or physician before use.
