Niaouli Essential Oil 10 ml

Niaouli Essential Oil is a fresh, camphoraceous, herbal oil from the leaves and twigs of the Melaleuca viridiflora tree — a bold choice for anyone who loves eucalyptus-style scents.

Niaouli belongs to the myrtle family and the same genus as tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia) and cajeput (Melaleuca leucadendron). It is also known as the broad-leaved paperbark or paperbark tea tree. Its scent recalls eucalyptus and cajeput oils, as all three are very rich in the same compound: 1,8-cineole.

Niaouli isn’t the sweetest-smelling oil in the collection. Its clean, cool, crisp aroma really comes into its own in blends — pair it with other essential oils to add a fresh, camphoraceous lift.

How to use niaouli essential oil

• in a diffuser or oil burner — a few drops for a fresh, airy feel at home,
• in the bath — a few drops mixed with a carrier oil or bath salts,
• for massage — diluted in a carrier oil such as sweet almond,
• in homemade cosmetics — a drop in a portion of unscented gel or cream (always at a low concentration),
• on summer evenings outdoors — insects aren’t fond of its scent.

Volume: 10 ml.

Caution
Do not ingest. Always dilute in a carrier oil before applying to skin and patch test first: apply a drop of diluted oil to the inner forearm — if any reaction appears within 24 hours, do not use on skin. Keep out of reach of children. If pregnant, breastfeeding or under medical care, consult your doctor. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
