Cedar, American

Juniperus virginiana

Cupressaceae family

This is our good old fashioned American cedar--not to be confused with Atlas or Himalayan cedar. Note that this is actually, techinically, a Juniper. The oil is steam distilled from sawdust and smells like fresh pencil shavings!

The scent is actually quite sweet and lovely, deep and interesting.

Use as normal, in the bath, compresses, sitz bath, in a room diffuser, etc

Blends well with bergamot, geranium, lemon, petitgrain, and sandalwood.
