Far & Wild Cinnamon oil is steam distilled from the leaf of the tropical, evergreen Cinnamomum verum tree (also known as Ceylon cinnamon), a higher quality essential oil than other varieties. A warm and spicy addition to any blend, cinnamon oil has also been used for centuries for its compounds and phytochemicals (cinnamaldyde and eugenol), giving cinnamon oil its natural antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant properties. Diffuse cinnamon oil in the home for an inviting, cozy mood. Dilute cinnamon with carrier oil for topical applications
