Cypress Essential Oil
Cypress essential oil is steam distilled from the needles and twigs of the Mediterranean cypress (Cupressus sempervirens), an evergreen tree native to southern Europe and western Asia that has been cultivated for thousands of years. Historically, cypress was revered by ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman civilizations for its fragrant wood and was used in ceremonies, perfumery, and traditional botanical practices. Today, cypress essential oil is widely used in all-natural soaps, lotions, massage oils, candles, and aromatherapy blends, where it is valued for its fresh, woody aroma and enduring botanical heritage.
