Cinnamon Leaf Pure Essential Oil - Essentially Natural

Essentially Natural Cinnamon Leaf Pure Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaves of Cinnamomum zeylanicum. Its aroma is warm, spicy, and clove-like, which makes it popular in wintery diffuser blends and natural home scenting. It is a potent essential oil that should be used at low levels, especially in leave-on body products. Cinnamon leaf oil is typically chosen for aroma and blend-building rather than for direct skin use.
