Blue Cypress Essential Oil — 10 ml

🌿 Introduction
Blue Cypress Essential Oil — distilled from the heartwood of Callitris intratropica, a native Australian conifer — is a rare and striking essential oil known for its natural blue color and calming, smoky-woody aroma.
Its unique hue comes from guaiazulene, a naturally blue compound also found in chamomile, giving this oil both its soothing properties and its deep cerulean tint. The scent is smooth, resinous, slightly leathery, and sweet-woody, evoking the serenity of ancient forests and cool evening air after rain.
At Herbsmetics, Blue Cypress Essential Oil is featured in our Perfume & Aromatherapy Workshops in Phuket as a symbol of tranquility and strength, teaching guests how resinous woods bring balance, depth, and harmony to botanical perfumes and wellness blends.
