Aromatic Discription:
Woody and sweet. Atlas Cedar Oil is a bit sharper than Virginian
Cedarwood Oil. The aroma is reminiscent of artificial mothballs.
Essential oil from cedarwood is believed to be
one of the first distilled by man. There’s plenty
of existing evidence that tells of how early
humans put cedarwood essential oil to various
uses, taking full advantage of its antiseptic and
sedative effects, among many others.
For instance, recent findings suggest that
despite the relative difficulty of extracting
essential oils from cedar, Ancient Egyptians
used substantial amounts of the precious
nectar to embalm their dead. We can all take
the well-preserved state of Egyptian mummies
as proof of the strength of cedarwood oil’s
insecticidal and antimicrobial properties.
Cedar trees prefer colder climates and are
usually found in higher altitudes. Nowadays,
not all trees that are called “cedar” are the
same species—or even the same genus—as
the cedars of Biblical fame.
Cedarwood Field
Origin of Cedarwood
The tree is native to North America and
grows up to 30 meters (100 feet) and ages
up to 1,000 years. This is the tree Solomon
used to build the Temple in Jerusalem.
Cedrus libani or Lebanon cedar, from which
the first essential oil was extracted, is very
scarce due to over use.
The Egyptians used the oil in the
mummification process, in cosmetics and as
a insect repellant, while native Americans
used Cedar oil in medicine and burnt it for
purification. These days the wood is often
used in the making of pencils and boxes.
Benefits of
Cedarwood Essential Oil
Eczema :
Eczema is a common skin disorder that causes dry, red, itchy skin that can blister
or crack. Some users find that cedarwood essential oil reduces the unpleasant
inflammation and dryness that comes with eczema. There are a few ways to
include cedarwood essential oil in your daily routine by adding the oil to your skin
lotion or soap, rubbing it on the infected or itchy area along with a carrier oil, or
make yourself a bath with five drops of cedarwood oil added to it.
Antiseptic properties :
Cedarwood definitely makes the list of essential oils used in dermatology due to
its many beneficial effects on the skin, including its antiseptic ability. (8) As a
natural antiseptic, cedarwood oil can prevent the development and growth of
harmful microorganisms that can negatively affect skin health.
Helps arthritis :
Inflammation of the joints and tissues, which are common
symptoms of arthritis, can lead to debilitating pain or
discomfort,In fact, topical pain relievers for joint and muscle
pain are known to include cedar essential oil for its therapeutic
benefits.
Natural deodorizer :
Cedarwood essential oil is comforting, reassuring and also
possesses a pleasant wood-like scent. It adds a warm tone to
any blend of perfumes or oil mixtures. Plus, when it’s used
around the home, it acts as a natural deodorizer to freshen the
air
Sedative and calming effects :
Aromatherapy is the act of using essential oils to enhance
psychological and physical well-being. Research demonstrates
that you may want to reach for the cedarwood oil if you’re
looking to calm down and relax.
