Steam-distilled from the aromatic bark of Cinnamomum zeylanicum, this 100% pure Cinnamon Essential Oil has a warming, spicy and slightly sweet aroma valued for its stimulating, reviving and digestive-supporting properties.
A festive favourite for oil burners, diffusers and incense, cinnamon blends beautifully with clove, ginger, frankincense, sweet orange and lavender. Amour Natural blends and bottles it in the UK, with nothing else added – though its warming intensity means it should always be used sparingly and diluted with care (see Warnings below).

FAQs
Is Cinnamon Essential Oil safe to apply to the skin?
Only when diluted to a maximum of 0.6% in a carrier oil, and always after a patch test – cinnamon bark oil can irritate or sensitise skin at higher concentrations.
Can I use Cinnamon Essential Oil in the bath?
No – due to its warming, potent nature, cinnamon oil should be avoided in bath water, where it can irritate skin and mucous membranes.
What's the difference between the 10ml, 50ml and 100ml bottles?
Nothing but the pack size – all three contain exactly the same 100% pure cinnamon bark oil, so choose based on how often you use it.
Is this oil suitable for children?
No, Cinnamon Essential Oil is not recommended for use with children.
Can I use Cinnamon Essential Oil if I'm on medication?
Cinnamon oil may inhibit blood clotting and interact with certain medications, so check with your GP or pharmacist first, especially if you take blood thinners.
