White Cypress wood – Callitris glaucophylla
White Cypress essential oil is a new player in the Australian native arena. There are approximately 16 species of Cypress Pines in Australia, 14 of which are native. The White Cypress pine has a strong place in Aboriginal culture (oars, resin and medicine) and now essential oil production.
White Cypress Wood Aroma
The oil, distilled from the wood not the leaf, Callitris glaucophylla has a mild yellow colour with a woody, forest like grounding aroma.
White Cypress Wood Benefits
The oil has an incredible soothing and grounding property and is used commonly as a fixative in perfumery as well as in anti-anxiety aromatic medicine.
White Cypress Wood Uses
It can be used in most of the traditional essential oil methods, for example being used in an oil burner/vaporizer. Cypress wood, particularly from species like the native Australian cypress (Callitris), has been traditionally used by Indigenous Australians for its medicinal and practical benefits. The wood and oils from cypress are used to treat skin conditions, as an antiseptic, and for respiratory issues, while the timber is valued for crafting tools, weapons, and shelters due to its durability and resistance to decay. The aromatic properties of cypress are also used in cultural practices, such as smoking ceremonies for purification and spiritual protection.
For use in a diffuser, add 8-10 drops to 600ml of water, which will last for up to 8 hours. Add 3-4 drops to a carrier for a refreshing massage blend. Combine with other Native Secrets essential oils for a unique Australian aroma. Store below 30℃.
Wood essential oils are generally thicker than other essential oils. You may notice more residue after use in your diffuser than normal. This is not a sign of impurities, rather a difference in characteristics between plants, often between leaf and wood of the same plant. We recommend cleaning your diffuser after each use to avoid any residue build up. The quickest and easiest way to do this is by dipping a cotton tip in pure white vinegar or rubbing alcohol and wiping the inside of your diffuser. Be sure to get into the edges and corners. Take extra care when moving near or over the plate.
