Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus brings a sharp, camphoraceous, and powerfully fresh quality to perfumery that immediately clears the senses and energizes the mind. This Australian native tree produces an essential oil dominated by cineole, a molecule that gives it that distinctive cool, clean, almost medicinal character.

Eucalyptus has been used medicinally for centuries and carries strong associations with cleanliness and breathing deeply. In fragrance, eucalyptus adds a bracing freshness that can open up dense compositions and add a mentholated clarity.

It pairs beautifully with mint for amplified coolness, with citrus for an invigorating freshness, with tea tree for a natural aromatherapy feel, with lavender for a spa-like serenity, and with woods for a forest-inspired character. You will find eucalyptus in many aromatic and fresh fragrances designed to energize.
