Pure eucalyptus essential oil (Eucalyptus globulus, Blue Gum) — steam distilled from the leaves of this towering Australian gum tree to preserve the full integrity of its active compounds. Sharp, penetrating and camphoraceous with a fresh woody-balsamic undertone, it is one of the most iconic and versatile essential oils in aromatherapy. Cooling, stimulating and powerfully purifying, it is renowned for clearing the sinuses, refreshing the mind and boosting concentration.
Eucalyptus globulus is prized for its deeply cleansing and regulating qualities. It is an outstanding choice for steam inhalations during colds and congestion, for diffuser blends to clear the air and sharpen the mind, and as a component of massage oils for muscle soreness and respiratory support. Australian Aborigines have long used eucalyptus leaves as a natural antiseptic and wound-healing aid. Blends beautifully with lavender, thyme, rosemary, marjoram, pine, cedarwood and lemon.
