- Inquiry
Chinese Cedarwood Oil is extracted through steam distillation from the heartwood of Cupressus funebris—a traditional coniferous tree native to China. This essential oil offers a grounding woody character with a rich, balsamic sweetness, widely used in perfumes and functional fragrances.
Ideal for building base notes in woody-amber accords, this oil imparts depth and tenacity to both masculine and oriental compositions.
