What’s the difference between Cedarwood- Atlas and Cedarwood- Himalayan?
  • Native to Morocco, Cedarwood Atlas is high in sesquiterpenes. It is a good choice for skin care blends such as beard oil, facial serums and lotions for its astringent and skin-nourishing properties which helps to even out oily skin. With sedative and calming attributes, it can be added to relaxing or sleep-enhancing blends. Cedarwood Atlas is also commonly used for its benefits with breathing and helping to clear congestion. Aromatherapists refer to Cedarwood Himalayan as being calming and helpful for breathing, much like Cedarwood Atlas. It is also helpful as an anti-inflammatory for issues such as arthritis pain and for its anti-infectious properties, making it a good choice to diffuse during the cold season. Cedarwood Himalayan has an earthy aroma that is woody with an overriding sweet, almost floral or fruit-like note.
What does Cedarwood- Atlas essential oil do?
  • Cedrus atlantica is one of the few chemotypes of Cedarwood essential oils. The wood is steam distilled to make a base note essential oil that is from harvested wood found in Morocc. It has fabulous grounding benefits that work well in sleep blends as well as in mixtures for mindful meditation. It can be used in blends to fend off biting insects and added to unscented lotions and shampoos to improve hair growth and prevent hair loss.
What essential oils blend well with Cedarwood- Atlas?
  • As a base note and oil derived from the wood of the tree, Cedarwood makes a good fixative to blends. Its aroma can help to diffuse spicy aromatics and make them gentler for topical blends. With floral and citrus oils, Cedarwood Atlas can help to enhance their calming and antianxiety effects. Try Cedarwood with Sweet Orange, Bergamot and Tangerine as well as with florals such as Lavender, Rose and Neroli. To enhance the grounding effects of Cedarwood, try adding other wood and resinous base note oils such as Sandalwood, Frankincense. With Cypress and Tea Tree, Cedarwood is an excellent choice added to skin care blends.
Which Cedarwood essential oil is best for bugs?
  • According to studies, Cedrol, an active component in Cedarwood (Juniperus virginiana) not only protects the tree against invasive bugs but in the form of essential oil transfers those same effects we can use against arthropods such as ants, fleas and ticks. The components alpha, beta and gamma himachalene found in both Himalayan Cedarwood and Atlas Cedarwood essential oils are also equally effective against bugs including ants, beetles, moths and fleas, ticks and mosquitoes. So, whichever Cedarwood you have on hand will help to protect your family and your home.
