Ho wood oil is steam distilled from the bark and twigs of Cinnamomum camphora. This middle note has a warm, bright and woody aroma used in relaxing blends. Ho wood is very similar to rosewood but produced from a much more renewable source. Combines well with sandalwood, chamomile, basil, or ylang ylang.

Packaging

Precautions
This oil may interact with certain drugs, may contain safrole and methyleugenol, and is expected to be neurotoxic based on camphor content. Never use essential oils undiluted, in eyes or mucus membranes. Do not take internally unless working with a qualified and expert practitioner. Keep away from children.
Before using topically, perform a small patch test on your inner forearm or back by applying a small quantity of diluted essential oil and apply a bandage. Wash the area if you experience any irritation. If no irritation occurs after 48 hours it is safe to use on your skin.
